Which Is Bigger 1/10 or 1/8 RC Car?

When it comes to deciding which RC car is bigger, there is no clear-cut answer. It really depends on the type of RC car you are looking at; 1/10 or 1/8 scale.

Both scales have their own advantages and disadvantages.

1/10 scale cars are usually smaller than 1/8 scale cars, but they can be just as powerful. They are also much more affordable and easier to maintain.

The smaller size allows for more maneuverability, making them great for off-road driving. On the downside, 1/10 scale cars typically lack some of the features and components found on larger cars such as suspension systems, four-wheel drive, and a large variety of body styles.

1/8 scale cars are typically larger and more detailed than their 1/10 counterparts. They also provide a greater range of features such as larger engines, better suspension systems and four-wheel drive capability.

This makes them ideal for racing or bashing on rough terrain. However, they can be quite expensive and difficult to repair if something goes wrong.

Conclusion:

In terms of size, 1/8 scale RC cars are generally larger than 1/10 scale ones. However, both offer unique advantages depending on your needs and budget. Ultimately it comes down to personal preference and what type of experience you’re looking for from your RC car.
