Haha... "because the geeks can do it"... heeheehee.
Tamiya is the only one who's actually made anything as
interesting as a working RC solar car, a authentic scale model
none the less. (they also have smaller nonRC running models)
Think the Solar Eagle come with everything you need - cells, battery,
ESC, drivetrain etc... all you need is a 2ch radio, RX & 1 servo.
But no, don't even think of putting any 540 in it.
Sooo.... who's gonna be first put a FUEL CELL in their lekky car??
