Bought this for my 6yr old son but of course dad likes a play too!

Didn't have huge expectations given the price but I'm amazed at how well made it is, and if anything breaks it looks easy to repair / replace parts.

And it's quick! Again I didn't expect it to have that sort of performance but it's superceded my expectations.

The higher capacity 1300mah battery is a must, I'll probably end up buying another 1 or 2 of them.

Big thumbs up from us!

“Great little racing truck to get you started in the hobby. Essentially ready to go out of the box which is great for first timers. Performance is great too. So much speed I had to dial it down on the limiter just so I could get the hang of the controls. Would definitely recommend this for anyone starting out or for children who just need a fund car to blast around the part with.”

“Bought this for my 4 year old son and he loves it. It's great that you can turn the speed down for playing in the house/garden but then when out in the open let him turn it up for more speed. I've been really impressed with it so far and it is a surprisingly quick little RC. We bought 2x1500mah batteries to extend run time which have been great and we will look to upgrade the shocks in time.”

“Brilliant little truck,easy to pop in a bag and travel with, very robust, loads of fun, great price, variable speed so great for newbies and smaller spaces, loads of upgrade parts. I recommend getting a 2nd battery (you will be having so much fun you will not want it to end)”

“Bought this for my nine year old son for his birthday, was a bit worried if it would be a bit much as his first proper rc car but with the speed selector it is great. Also bought the larger capacity battery and must be getting around an hours run time with it! Great value for money and quick easy experience using RC Geeks”

“Great little nippy truck for first step into hobby RC cars, replacement parts easily available but still takes a bashing before you'll need them. Defo recommend some extra batteries to keep the fun going. In fact this is the 3rd car I've had to buy as now every kid in the house wants one (myself included).”

“Bought this for my sons 6th birthday. He loves it. Its so easy to use. A great feature is that you can turn the power down for the speed so it's more controllable when not in a big open space but then it's really fast when turned up in an open space. Looks really cool too.”

“I have to admit that I was not expecting much from this car based on the price, but wow! This little truck is so fast and agile that, if I didn't know the cost, I would have assumed it was a much more expensive item. I really like the fact that all parts are available to purchase in case something gets broken and there are even some upgrades available for the drivetrain and battery. My 7yo son got used to the controls very quickly and loves the truck.”
