RC Scale v/s Size

All Scale and size are not exactly the same. RC vehicles are modeled after actual full-sized cars, trucks, bikes, boats, and aircraft.

The scale might be of 1:16, 1:10, 1:12, 1:8, or other scales. The 1:8 scale Car is 1/8th the size of a full-size Car. The 1:10 RC is usually smaller than the 1:8, but not always.

A 1:8 scale sports car is much smaller than a 1:8 scale plane because a full-size sports car is much smaller than a full-size tank.
