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

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

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