Fast and Fun!!!!
âââââ High-Speed Fun! Durable & Worth Every Penny!I recently purchased this 1:18 scale high-speed RC truck, and I have to sayâit has exceeded my expectations!Performance & Speed:Right out of the box, this thing flies! It easily hits the advertised speed in my opinion, making it an absolute thrill to drive. The remote provides a solid connection with zero lag, and I had no issues controlling it even at a distance. The faster you go, you just have to watch how you turn!Build Quality & Design:The tires give it excellent grip on pavement, dirt, grass, and even light gravel. The shocks anre impressive, making jumps and bumpy rides smooth. The waterproof rating means I donât have to worry about splashes or puddles, which is a big plus because I went through the wet grass a few times so I could spin it out.Battery Life:It comes with two rechargeable batteries, which together last around 30 minutes of continuous playâplenty of time for fun before needing a recharge. I do recommend letting the batteries cool down before charging them again, just for safety.Overall:If youâre looking for a fast, durable, and well-built RC truck that handles all terrains like a champ, this is it! Great for beginners and experienced drivers alike. Highly recommend!

Fun car for a Fair price
The media could not be loaded. A little background on me. I have been into RC cars for nearly 40 years, I have had just about every grade, style level and type of RC I can think of. Price was never really a concern for me, and what i mean by that is if it was exspensive i would wait and buy it when i could, if it was in exspensive i would buy it if it looked like a solid vehicle. This has lead me to alot of little gems. Today is no different, this little car is a gem.So what do you get: well you get 2 lipo batteries, they are the 2/3 AA cells with a steel case inside of hear shrink. The batteries are rated at 1200 mah and that feels about right. Since they are lipo they are fun until the last moment, when the low power kicks in and shuts the truck off. This is for the longevity of the batteries, and not a bad thing. The low power seems to kick in around 3 volts per cell which is a good spot for longevity. The battery charger provided is powered by a standard USB A adapter, i would recommend using at least a 1.2 amp power brick to charge from. The power brick is not included, but if you have a cell phone I am certain you have one of these laying about. I would not recommend charging the batteries off your computer, as the power consumption would likely be too much for these ports. the vehicle also comes with a bag of spare parts which is something i don't usually see at this or even much high price points. I like to see this, and the parts it comes with are the typical ones you would break in normal use. Such as the spur gear, a shock, CVD's (yeah i was kinda surprised to see cvd's at this level) and a screw driver to change the parts out. Not included is 2 AA batteries for the controller.Let go play: So charging takes about 20-30 minutes with a decent charger, Saomsung phone charger 2.4 amps. but be warned if you use a smaller charger it can take much longer. I do not think a larger charger would make the charge happen more quickly. Hooking up the battery is pretty easy and there is much that can go wrng there, the port is keyed so no reverse hook up worries. The power button to turn on the controller was a little odd to me. you have to press and hold it for some time until the light comes on, (always power up your controllrer first and car second to prevent run-away's) so be a little parient when you think it should be on hold it a bit longer. To be honest this isn't a bad thing since you don't want the controller to turn on and kill your batteries when you are transporting it. The vehicle has a similar red push to turn on button, it turns on more quickly. You will know it's on when the headlights are lit. The controller is comfortable and the controls are quite good, i have had some very numb controls before on vehicles but this one seems pretty solid. The digital proportoinal steering was accurrate and quick, the throttle control was nice and smooth over all no suprises here, it's just what you would expect.Performance: This little thing skoots, power is dished out to the 4wd which does an excellent job putting down the power from the little 380 brushed motor. The car gets up to speed quickly on pavement or grass, and while I wouldn't consider the top speed blistering it is more than adequate to be fun. To be honest any faster and the chasis and suspension wouldn't handle the power well and it would be (believe it or not) less fun. The balance of speed, acceleration is spot on for this scale and level vehicle. The tires have enough grip to be fun but not so much that it traction rolls, and the suspension does a admirable job of soaking up bumps and keeping the truck stable. One area that lets the truck down is the friction shocks, they are not a deal breaker as they work very well and the truck is sprung almost perfectly, but the lack of dampening makes it a little bumpy, this caused the largest number of rollovers. The steering was very solid and servo has enough speed and power to keep you in control and overall the driving experince is good for a beginer taking their first step into a hobby grabe car to some one who is seasoned. This truck would be fun. One thing to consider is this is a smaller vehicle 1:18th scal, so it's blast in a small to moderate size area, my test area is 25x60 has thin grass, tree roots and some concrete walkway as you can see in the video.Durability: We didn't go out to test how durable the vehicle is, we didn't intend to crash it or try to break it, and we didn't!!!! The truck is all plastic, but varying types, the frame is pretty stiff and should be to keep all those spinny bits aligned. The control arms are soft and flexible which is what you want, rigid parts are brittle so in an impact they break, this is not the case here. We bounced off a tree, bottomed it out a bunch of times on the a piece of cement on the walkway, and jumped it off some tree roots. Nothing broke, infact there were minimal scratches. We did this for about 4 batteries so an hour or so, and not a thing gave up. Not too bad for a truck in this price range. I will say the motor gets hot, and i woudl recommend a short break 5 or so minutes between packs, but we also ran it nearly flat out for the entire pack in grass, and the temps were right on par with my other 1:18 trucks.Minor things i would like to see improved: I would have loved to see oil shocks and a longer stroke on the shocks. I'm sure there are after market ones that can be used, but i would not swap the springs, they are perfect. I also would have liked to seen a way to adjust the suspensoin, the front wheels had a bit of a toe in, while it didn't really seem to affect the driving characteristcs it was noticeable. But thats about it, and really i've had similar complaints on cars 2 or 3 times this price range. So again overall Not too bad!Upgradability: So this is a gateway hobby grade vehicle, it can be upgraded, it uses a fairly standard motor, servo 2 in 1 esc, the shocks are nearly identical to ones found on other small vehicles. There are parts that are non-standard but over all this vehicle leaves room to tinker, and it's cost effective enough if you make an error it is possible to replace it. All very good points.Final thoughts: I love this little truck and aparently so does my son, since he has claimed it. This vehicle is priced directly in the realm of toy grade throw aways which if you break something you are out a car, infact i have seem many of those more exspensive than this truck, and very ferw of thsoe would be nearly as capable of an RC car. I keep saying it this vehicle is fun, and it's an excellent starting point for beginers. It's robust enough to take a bit of the abuse that newer drivers would dish out, and yet close enough to a hobby grade to teach good habits and responsability, all in a package that is reachable by most. I think there will be a second one of these little guys gracing a shelf in my collection soon ( the first is already been claimed as i said before :)

Fantastic rc and a great gift
This toy is fantastic! Itâs loved by everyone, and as a gearhead who has driven full-sized adult versions, itâs a great choice.We also purchased a similar green model so we could play together at the same size, and it matches in speed. It feels like the same toy with a different design, which is perfect.I appreciate the front lights; my adult version doesnât have those!The speed is just rightâfast enough to be exciting but not so fast that it breaks when it hits something.It really holds up well during rough play. Even when itâs pushed to its limits, it bounces back without any issues!The body comes with a plastic cover, similar to the satisfying peel-off covers on electronics. I intentionally left it on to protect the toy for a while. Although the cover is starting to wear, the body underneath is still in great shape. I plan to keep it on until it starts to come off completely, and it will be satisfying to peel it off!It's great that it includes two batteries and two USB chargers, allowing you to charge it in your car. You can easily carry the spare batteries in your pocket when going to the park. While Iâm not sure about the exact runtime, itâs decentâenough for fun without being too long, given the size.I also like that it comes with many spare parts!The only spare part I've had to use after a lot of playtime over the past few weeks is the body clips. They can pop out if the cotter pins are pushed to the halfway point, but if you push them on fully, they stay put. I use two clips at opposite corners, which is sufficient and makes it a bit harder to remove. It took me a moment to figure out the best way to do this, but itâs manageable.I highly recommend this toy and have already suggested it to others.This toy will be enjoyed by everyone!
