Sir Reck, although I did try your RC bike before. I didn't notice if the bike was steering because of the wheel, or because of the little man's weight. Please confirm. hehe =)
The one you tried is a venom gpv, the steering is different from the HORs on the video, the HORs use the leaning rider to lean the bike from left to right thus making the turn, the GPVs use the same steering system like the 1:5th scale bikes which is directly linked to the triples or the forks, the rider is fixed unlike the HORs.
HORs applied the same concept as to riding 1:1 bikes ...... which i believe would be better (i can be wrong though) ...... i havent tried any of these cool rc bikes
the GPVs however have that risk of doing a so called "high side" if the steering is turned violently .....
im sure the RC bike concept applies the same concept as the real thing .......
the countersteer concept is consistently applied for bikes when turning at high speeds ..... that and weight transfer that is .....
Absolutely RIGHT! the GPVs and 1:5th bikes uses the countersteering concept, for someone new to bikes its totally different from cars coz the bike has to lean on its side to make a turn, to steer right the front wheel should point to the left to make the bike lean to the right visavis.
