i was building a car engine and the 5292 RC went well initially, a car was fun to drift away parquet floor.
Momentum is sufficient to be the engine spins up to 1300 rpm. For comparison, the same power function of torque licensed medium engine revolutions is 400

It took several days before the problems began to emerge. Today we started the car stopping for a bit, more precisely, RC engine went on and off every second even if the transmitter was on the bottom of the gas all the time. Between the defect changed so that the gas was ok when it was switched on all the time, but when it shut down, the engine reacts to the new gasification 2-3 seconds delay.
Was also odd that the first failure occurred when the car was further away and again when the second car was next to the driver.

That is why I suspected that the first end of radiator are remote ohjailmesta. Exchange did not help. Then I suspected that one half of the transmitter is broken. I changed the remote control does not. I wonder emanates household appliance interference ... I changed the receiver frequency, no.
Then I suspected the battery, I got a BL from the cheap (here) that the Chinese wonder whether any of the battery. Did not help.

Then I changed the IR receiver. Something happened, I do not remember correctly what, but the car working again. After a few moments. And faults started again.

Then I remembered this site, which is a good comparison of the Lego engine details. And warning of the page (which I was definitely taken note of, but I thought about it until the end of) the RC engine is no need to use those devices with which the engine can not withstand the required (A = 3.2) in patients with tongue sticking out smiley
In other words, yes 8878 battery can cope (at least not yet problems, kop kop), but the IR receiver is.
Block was already warm and smelt of fact burnt electronics.

I thought that it went to ****, couple of expensive bricks ..
But no, they will be fine. But hardly lasts RC engine useing so long ago ... or indeed anywhere at all anymore.

It is unfortunate that the RC engine can not really use it when the giant box with the eye rolling smiley

This story, therefore, as a warning if someone is planning the same smiling smiley
(and to consider even put the car in 2 of these engines smiling bouncing smiley)

Yes I am going to still open the IR receiver, and modify it to examine whether the hardened components, or something ...
