Don’t need a radio receiver either. Plenty of old RC cars were wired.
Source: Grew up poor; all my RC cars were not remote controlled. 😭

Except “RC” literally stands for “remote controlled”.
What you had were uncontrolled toy cars.

It absolutely is. The first TV remotes were wired to the TV. Source: am old.
Here’s an example of a wired cable TV remote. Remote meant you didn’t need to get up to change the channel. Or for a car, it means you could walk behind it instead of pushing it manually.

They were certainly controlled. They just weren’t radio controlled. C cars instead of RC cars. lol
