how to make electric remote control car run on gas?
does anyone know the steps needed to change electric remote control car to a gasoline powered remote control car? vedio on youtube or anything?
This is generally not done, as the transmission and chassis in an electric R/C car is not rugged enough for the added weight and power of the gas engine. Also, if you're R/C car is not a hobbyist-grade kit but rather a store-bought consumer type, it will be virtually impossible to modify in that way.
It would be much easier to simply buy a gas powered car kit. (I don't recommend buying one that's already built for you, because you won't know how to adjust and fix it when things go wrong– anything can happen to the car at 40 m.p.h. plus!)
Expect to spend at least a couple of weeks building the thing. If this sounds like something you don't have a head for, then it might not be the hobby for you. If it sounds like something you could do, it's loads of fun. Just be sure you have a lot of space to drive it around these things are incredibly fast!
Good Luck!

Built two R/C truck kits
remotes, senors, frequencies, (electrical energy) etc…. gasoline needs combustion ( chemical energy to heat energy ) converts to mechanical energies to move the car and youtubed ( information based, etc… "whatever" energies ) to tell the world, that is not so easy, lo….. and you are talking of remote cars not the real cars ……. its good to play ( enjoy energies ), but it is good to work ( sweat energies ), too… keep it up,
