is a line of remote-controlled toy cars manufactured by Takara Tomy, based on the popular Choro-Q pullback line. First released in late 2006, Q-Steer replaces Takara's Digi-Q and Tomy's Bit Char-G micro R/C lines. ==Overview== Like its Takara predecessor Digi-Q, Q-Steer incorporates micro infrared technology as opposed to the traditional radio control used by other micro R/C brands. It also uses the 40 mm long S-Tech chassis, which is an evolution of Tomy's Bit Char-G chassis. Much like their Choro-Q contemporaries, Q-Steer cars have a slot at the rear, where users can insert a coin to change the cars' handling characteristics, such as doing a wheelie. The slot also identifies the car model and the available frequencies. The car and the remote weigh 16 grams. Each Q-Steer car can be set to one of two IR channels, which consist of A-B and C-D bands, and up to four cars can race simultaneously. The controller is white with grey buttons and features the basic six-point movement function, a turbo boost button, a channeling switch to select either the A, B, C or D band and a special grey tool used to switch the power and channel levers underneath the car, as well as to open the car's battery case. It is also possible for users to operate their cars with I-mode compatible cell phones or a Sony PSP via a special software download.〔(PSP Controlling a Q-Steer Car )〕 Unlike other micro R/C cars in the market, Q-Steer cars are not rechargeable. Instead, the car and controller are powered by two LR44 button cell batteries each. Maximum operation range is 1.5 meters or 5 feet. Starter kits come with the car and controller only. QSH lines come with mini traffic cones and a "Spin Tire" axle which enables the car to drift. Aside from cars based on real models, Q-Steer also offers cars from licensed anime, movie and video game franchises such as ''Initial D'', Disney/Pixar's ''Cars'' and Nintendo's ''Mario Kart Wii'' and ''Pokémon''. The Lightning McQueen Q-Steer car (available in both Rust-eeze and Dinoco paint schemes) comes with a set of "Noco-Noco" tires, which are unevenly mounted to give the car a wobbly movement.〔(Q-Steer QSP-01 Lightning McQueen )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Q-steer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
