This book is all about Toy Grade RC car restoration and conversion to "real RC". Remember the 80s where we had Taiyo, Nikko and Bandai producing RC buggies giving us endless hours of fun and enjoyment? After 30+ years these RC cars are seriously aged. For them to run again a lot of things have to be fixed. And the electronics are likely dead already so you may as well turn them into real RC by using real RC car electronics on them. We show you how these can be accomplished using real life examples. In this book, a dual motor Nikko RC 1:10 4WD is converted to "real RC" step by step. And there are also examples for explaining different topics using other car models from Nikko and others.

The inside story of one of the world?s most powerful financial Institutions Now with a new foreword and final chapter, The Partnership chronicles the most important periods in Goldman Sachs?s history and the individuals who built one of the world?s largest investment banks. Charles D. Ellis, who worked as a strategy consultant to Goldman Sachs for more than thirty years, reveals the secrets behind the firm?s continued success through many life-threatening changes.
