 Radio-controlled model - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A radio-controlled model (or RC model) is a model that is steerable with the use of radio control.
In the 1990s miniaturised equipment became widely available, allowing radio control of the smallest models, and by the 2000s radio control was commonplace even for the control of inexpensive toys.
Many cars, boats, and aircraft can accept equipment from different manufacturers, so it is possible to take RC equipment from a car and install it into a boat, for example.

 Radio-controlled car - Patent 4480401
The radio-controlled car as claimed in claim 4, wherein said rotatable lever is always biased by a returning force of a spring to urge the rotatable lever backwards so as to quickly return to the normal position.
In the radio-controlled car as claimed in claim 7 wherein, when the braking member is moved leftwards or rightwards, the rear portion of the lever supporting the auxiliary wheel, will be rotated rightwards or leftwards about the pin in a reverse direction of the braking member.
Such type radio controlled car is so designed in order to shift from the normal running mode to the wheelie running mode that the front wheels are raised by means of moving the center of gravity due to the reaction caused when the forward running speed of the radio controlled car is accelerated.

 Radio-controlled toy car - Patent 4457101
Therefore, in the case where the radio-controlled toy car is running at a constant speed or is started at a relatively low acceleration, since the center of gravity of the toy car body is located forward of the rear wheels 5A and 5B as depicted by the reference character G in FIG.
In contrast with this, in the case where the radio control toy car is started at a relatively high acceleration, since the center of gravity of the toy car body is shifted backward from the rear wheels 5A and 5B as depicted by the character reference G' in FIG.
In the case where the radio control toy car is required to move in the wheelie running mode, the user transmits a radio signal from a control box to the toy car for quickly starting or accelerating the toy car frontward.

 Review: Bensu Mini GTR radio controlled car
So if you want to power a toy car from one, you either have to put up with steadily dropping performance as the capacitor discharges, or you have to use a regulator that'll eat a considerable amount of power, and greatly reduce run time.
The car can run on any smooth surface, but practically any kind of carpet will be heavy going for it, and it can't climb much of a slope.
The Bensu car's extremely similar to the Bit Char-G; the only real difference is the clear electronics cover inside (which is also a feature of "Bullet" brand cars, if this page is to be believed), and the design of the transmitter.

 Andrew Bell - EE 476 Final Project
The controlling microcontroller's function was to essentially receive commands denoting the direction of the vehicle and output an encoded 8 bit value of these directions.
The car contained two batteries: one 9.6V battery from the original car was used to power all the motors (the front motor running at 5V due to a voltage regulator), while an ordinary 9V battery was used to power the microcontroller, again through another 5V regulator.
Since our original objective was to get the car running as it was originally, we decided it was necessary that all of the circuitry be transferred from the large, heavy breadboards to smaller PC boards where the components were soldered on.
