Don't need a radio receiver either. Plenty of old RC cars were wired.
Source: Grew up poor; all my RC cars were not remote controlled. ๐ญ
Except "RC" literally stands for "remote controlled".
What you had were uncontrolled toy cars.
They were certainly controlled. They just weren't radio controlled. C cars instead of RC cars. lol
Remote controlled rather than radio controlled. If one wanted to get particular a lot of cheap RC where/are done by IR control, which makes them pretty well useless outdoors, same with TV remotes, but it's still remote controlled.
