Held down with two body pins, the sleek lexan body features a red and white flame motif over a base black colour. The rear wing is also held down by two body pins and can be easily removed.
Soft knobbly block tyres are wrapped around three spoke wheels and offer great grip on hard surfaces, allowing for big powerslides on loose gravel or dusty carparks. Metal chassis bumpers front and rear allow the car to brush off some hard terrain but this this model does not feature water resistant electronics thus we advise against getting it wet.
With the included USB charger, the 7.4V 1100mAh battery can be recharged in around two and a half hours from empty and will provide around 10 minutes runtime, dependant on driving style. It is strapped down to the chassis with velcro and is easily replaced by the user.
The 390-sized brushed motor is potent, powering this small model to an impressive top speed; This is not a toy for younger or inexperienced children! An integrated receiver ESC unit features a power switch slider for turning the buggy on and off but take care not to touch the heatsink mounted ahead of it when powering down after a long run.
A hobby grade RC car, this features proportional steering with trims for both the throttle and the steering. The ergonomic transmitter is powered by 4x AA batteries (not included) and fires up via the round button on the base. Twist the wheel on the side clockwise to turn the car right and anti-clockwise for left.
Note : This toy contains small parts and is not suitable for children younger than 3 years old
This car is compact, strong and extremely fast. Charging time is quick -2hrs and run time usually lasts 20mins. A great starter car. It handles tarmac and the dirt with ease, haven’t tried small jumps yet but it looks like it could handle them. It has good strong suspension and it’s quick and easy to remove the cover to expose all the internal components.
For the price, this kit is amazing. The buggy is well designed and well built, pretty good quality components and should take a few tumbles in its stride. It's quick and the battery life is really good for such a small 2S lipo. Thoroughly recommended..
My son loves the speed of this car and for the price it seems very good value. We will be upgrading the battery to a higher capacity one at some point as it only lasts for around 10 minutes.
Best thing I have brought for a small rc car for the price and drive
