“It may be cheap “relatively”, but don’t do it. Within 45 minutes of running, the motor had a catastrophic failure and has been replaced. The front drive shafts are made of toffee, also replaced. There is an intermittent issue either with the ESC or radio that can only be cleared by unplugging everything, and re-binding the controller. It’s not exactly having a hard life, mostly being driven around a garden by a 7 year old - not exactly hard bashing.”
“Birthday present for son who loved it but sadly the gears/ drive system fell apart after six 15 minute sessions of standard garden use. Only electrics covered in warranty so repair job at own expense. Would not recommend if wanting more than a weeks entertainment.”
“1st outing and motor breaks after 5mins. Contacted RCGeeks so hopefully they will replace the truck but this is very disappointing. My son is gutted as he has been waiting ages for us to race each other.”
“Great starter RC Car when working with a month, motor stopped running though steering work, returned as requested by customer service four weeks yet no reply, no phone number provided.”
“Great toy, lots of fun with my little boy, but the battery (2000mAmp) only lasts 20 minutes. The charge takes around 5 hours with the included charger. We have invested an extra £60 in a rapid charger (1, 3 and 5Amp option) and a 5000 mAmp battery to cut the charge time and extent the playtime.
I would definitely recommend the car as a great way to spend time with kids”
