„We purchased 3 implements return cars for the European Athletics Under-20 Championship 2023, in Jerusalem. The company team from ‘rc-car-solutions’ came with the cars to the competition, and they also operated them during the event, and it went perfectly. Since then, we have been running the cars in local quality competitions, including international meetings, and we are very satisfied with their performance. We made a good deal!”

What we do – The birth of the idea

We, the founders Peter Takács and Levente Takács, both competed in athletic events in the past, so as a result, we were invited to youth events to work as referees.
As Peter has big experience in Radio controlled cars competitions, Levi came to an idea that we could bring back the javelin, discuss, and hammer with similar Rc controlled cars.
In this case, noone has to walk up and down (with an implement in the hand) outside the throwing sector, which is, by the way a very dangerous area, as the 7.25 kg hammer or the 2kg discus can cause serious harm when hitting someone, not to mention the javelin which sometimes flies to a distance of 80-90 meters.

With the usage of Rc-Cars not only the sector and its surroundings will be safer but the event can also proceed more smoothly as there is no waiting time until a person walks back with an implement.

The final version

We were first inspired by the Mini Coopers at the 2012 Summer Olympic game in London, and in 2013 we were doing the retrieving of the implements with our own constructed vehicle. Ever since, we have built many different versions, trying out many options, until we finalized the latest Rc-Car that functions very stable, and has a Mini or XR5 carcass/body.

In our references one could find many national athletic championships, and one-day meetings, like the Gyulai Memorial. On the latter we had a special request, during the covid, we had to hand over the bunch of flowers to the winning athlete with one of our Rc-Cars.
