What does roller mean in RC?
Roller means basic vehicle with no motor or electronics. Pre-Roller means basic vehicle with no tires and maybe no body.
A rolling chassis is the chassis without bodywork of a motor vehicle (car, truck, bus, or other vehicle), assembled with suspension and wheels.

A road roller (sometimes called a roller-compactor, or just roller) is a compactor-type engineering vehicle used to compact soil, gravel, concrete, or asphalt in the construction of roads and foundations.
* To give a lower roll center, make the suspension arms flatter (more horizontal). * To give a higher roll center, make the suspension arms more angled. Upper arms would have more of an upward angle where they meet the wheels; lower arms would have more a downward angle where they meet the wheels.
A roller is an object shaped like a cylinder. It rotates along its rounded edge in order to move larger objects and reduce the resistance caused by friction. Unlike a wheel it does not have an axle.
Body rolling is a physical fitness technique which integrates specialized six to 10 inch (15-25 centimeter) balls into the workout routine. It integrates aspects of yoga to stretch and tone the body, creating longer, more limber muscles which give the practitioner greater freedom of movement and flexibility.
The term rolling chassis is used to describe a vehicle with no engine, transmission and typically no rear end gears.

Are RC cars AC or DC?
All electric motors are AC motors. They just use different ways to generate it. All electric current is DC. In any given moment (a snapshot) current will only be going in one direction.
Road rollers use their weight to compress down the surface of the asphalt. The process of compression down can be either static or dynamic. In static compression, the machine is only rolled over the road surface, while in the case of dynamic compression mechanical means like vibration are used.

Today, rollers can weigh anywhere between 1 and 20 tons. 20 tons is the weight of about 3 and a half elephants.
There are generally two types of smooth wheeled rollers: single and double drum roller. They are also known as static rollers.
