SNT Micro FPV Car: First-Person RC Racing

Are you ready to take a trip into the mini world? Grab this SNT Micro FPV Car to enjoy First-Person RC Racing with live video feeds and streaming.

Flying FPV drones is enjoyable because you can feel like you're in the cockpit of an aircraft as it soars through the air. Now you can do so with a toy car as well. Behold the SNT Micro FPC car. For the uninitiated, FPV means First Person View. So by adding a front-facing camera to an RC (Radio-Controlled) toy car. It streams video directly to the driver's headset. This is a fantastic way to enhance the immersive experience of driving an RC car thanks to SNT (Sniclo Turbo).

SNT Micro FPV Car: First-Person RC Racing

If you ask me, everything is pretty easy peasy here. There's no steep learning curve about this amazing SNT Micro FPV Car. They just put a camera on top of a tiny RC car, which lets you drive it and see everything in front of it from your point of view. Even though we don't think a first-person view is the best way to watch a micro RC race (the courses aren't that big, so you can see the whole track from one place), it is a good way to race those small RCs on a bigger track.

The SNT Micro FPV Car essentially combines the company's SNT-C12006 micro RC racer with a magnetic camera that attaches to the roof and an FPV goggle for relaying the camera's first-person footage. This sounds like a lot of fun if you ask me.

Complete with signal lights!

The RC car is a standard 1:24-scale vehicle that, according to the manufacturer, features a proportional steering system for incredibly precise control and a high-torque gearbox for agile performance, as well as independent front shock absorption, simulation tires, and gyroscopic stabilization for stable driving on virtually any type of track. It includes functional headlamps, turn signals, reverse lights, brake lights, and even ambient lights for effect, as well as a USB-C-rechargeable battery.

A Whole New Level of RC Racing

Just like you driving a real car!

On the other hand, there are two kinds of cameras: SD and HD. Always go for the best specs if you ask me. Both have a 130-degree wide-angle lens so you can see a large part of the track and any obstacles ahead. They also have a magnetic base so you can just snap them on the roof of your mini RC car. It's made to instantly connect to the goggles that come with it when it's used, so you should get transmission as soon as the RC car is ignited.

The GQ2 FPV goggles included with the SNT Micro FPV Car use dual-antenna reception to ensure consistent signal transmission at all times, and the outfit promises a video transmission latency of approximately 28ms. The goggles are equipped with HD Fresnel lenses, plush padding, and a rechargeable battery. It comes with a customized FPV handwheel remote dubbed the AIR5 for controlling the vehicle's acceleration, direction, headlights, ambient light, and FPV power. It uses standard AAA/18650 batteries for power.

If you don't like FPV goggles, the company also sells a package with a fixed Wi-Fi camera that lets you control the RC with an app on your phone.
