Driving RC Cars With Friends Remotely Is Hard

Limited remote access

Traditional RC cars require you to be physically near the radio and vehicle.

Complicated setup

Remote RC systems are often difficult to configure and expensive to build.

Latency issues

Bad video and slow control response can ruin the driving experience.

No universal solution

There is no simple plug-and-play system for hobbyists and RC clubs.

The easiest way to drive real RC cars from anywhere in the world.

Plug & Play
Easy to set up
Low Latency
Smooth control
Works with most RC radios
Trainer port ready
Drive together
From anywhere

How It Works

Connect the Dongle

Plug the TorqCade Dongle into your computer.

Connect RC Radio

Connect your RC transmitter using the 3.5 mm trainer port.

Start Host App

Open the Host App and start a driving session.

Share Access Code

Send a private access code to your driver.

Drive the Real Car
