ARE THESE THINGS RC?????????

Do you think that These can be modded to bits. i.e. using the propulsion system and having a fuel powered bit????

They even have a little exaust system :-D

Can anyone think of a way to get a small ignition system that would recieve from the "up" on the controller (this is assuming that these engines are IC)

Let's get Dave,Hogg, ph2t any one good with electronics on this :-D

Hey, cartoon stations are on like 24/7 in my house, I've seen the commercials for these, I'm pretty sure they're like the size of X-mods, or close. They're pretty big.

i predict a baking soda/vinegar combo.

I just google searched 'em and checked them out on the Wal-Mart site, and on the box it's like "try milk, soda, juice, whatever-find out which is faster!" and they take like 3 aa's.
I agree on the vinegar and baking soda combo, hog, but I bet a nice malt liquor does the trick, too.
