Wow - that looks like GREAT fun for kids ... of all ages ;)

This featured on the Gadget show last night and came out on top of their comparison....it costs around £300 ....they were going for a Guinness World record with it looping the loop I think .
I didn't see the end of the show as was out in the garden watering the plants, did anybody see whether they set a record?

I've got two of these -

I bought the kits about 12 years ago, great fun but that off roader does look the business. Mrs RR wouldn't think so, unfortunately...:-(

Brilliant, but how do they manage to turn?

One of the servos operates a balance weight making the bike bank into a turn.

Thanks for that RR, makes sense.

Plus a gyroscope.

That's to keep them upright at low speed. Neither of mine has one.

I can see why you like it RP, its very jerky in motion, bit like a scooter.
