Add-on to make an electric sound like a gas (nitro) car?
Is there an electronic or mechanical (preferably electronic) add-on that I can use to make my electric 1/10 scale MT sound like a nitro or gas-powered one? Not sure which forum to post my question to, so I figured this is probably the best choice. Basically I want as authentic-sounding as possible (RPMs changing as I accelerate, idling noise when still, etc.) I've seen those semi trucks that have a fake engine noise, but to me those just don't sound real.

I just like that noise, I already added on a horn and headlights (which you turn on/off using the third channel). If no such thing exists, I will build it myself (the horn, headlights were a custom job to begin with). But it takes time and effort to perfect these things, if there is something already out there I'd rather just buy it.

That site is a fake joke site. What is having a nitro sound without the smell and the smoke, doesnt really make sense to me...

There is NO possible way you are going to get a sound system to sound identical to that of a nitro... By the time you record, process, then play out of speakers the noises won't be realistic at all... They will sound just as fake as the 2-year old truck noises from walmart.

Or put zip ties around the dogbones/axles and don't cut off the excess.
I've done that to my friends (full scale) truck... Put huge zip ties around the driveshaft... He starts driving get all worried about this crazy clicking noise! "aww man I think my transmission's goin out!" He pulls over and finds zip ties!!

Just run around behind the car and yell out nitro sounds at the top of your lungs....it works and its very cheap.
