Sooooo.... after seeing a guy talking about something I wondered- has anyone made or seen an RC powered by a steam engine? I have a mamod tei steam traction engine which uses a real steam boiler to propel itself, but you have to manually steer it. And as a kid I was taught keyboard by a very talented old man who could build very accurately copied RC boats and Steam Traction Engines out of cardboard powered by battery but I’ve never seen a fully remote operated steam powered RC motor (wagon, car, etc) and thought it would be fairly epic to see (think either true to history copies or even steampunk style).
You can get standalone engines that produce a spinning wheel which could possibly be remotely clutched to give on/off drive and connected to a driveline, and have the steering operated remotely too... just a thought tho, not planning anything just yet haha
