110scale

110scale, commonly written 1:10 scale, denotes models whose linear dimensions are one tenth of the real object's size. It is a standard in the model and RC hobby, especially for radio-controlled cars and trucks. 1:10 scale offers a practical compromise between detail and manageability: large enough for realistic-looking bodies and robust components, but small enough to be agile and affordable.

Applications include on-road touring cars, off-road buggies, stadium trucks, drift cars, rock crawlers, and rally cars. Bodies are typically molded from polycarbonate or fiberglass, and chassis may be plastic, composite, or metal. Many kits are sold as ready-to-run or as kits for assembly, catering to a range of skill levels.

Power and control for 1:10-scale vehicles is commonly electric, using brushless motors and LiPo batteries, though nitro-powered variants exist in the broader market. Control is via a radio control system, usually 2.4 GHz, paired with an electronic speed controller and a servo for steering. The format supports a wide aftermarket, with many third-party parts and upgrades available to tailor performance and handling.

Standards and market presence: there is no single global standard beyond the scale ratio, but 1:10-scale products are widely produced and purchased, making it one of the most popular scales for RC cars. Parts compatibility varies by brand, and enthusiasts often mix components to suit specific performance goals.
