A friend sent me this the other week.

It's possible, obviously the remote control software on the phone is no problem. It's the mechanism used to control the steering which would generally be quite beefy (well at least it is in 'normal' full-size remote control cars.

I have no idea how heavy the steering is in an F1 car, that would be the defining factor as to whether it's possible really... because the heavy duty gear used to control other full-size RC cars is quite beefy.

I would say it's quite possible for it to be a reality.
Not true. There are several manufactures that market 1/36th, and 1/72nd scale RC cars. Cars so small that you can fit several in the palm of your hand.


Example....


Team Losi 1/36th scale Micro-T. $80 retail.

Stock it even does wheelies, and moves fast enough that a person would have to walk at a fast pace to keep up. Its even possible to make the car go fast enough to out run a human eg 25mph+
