The car is really good, easy to control, fást as hell!

Great little car

Aug 18, 2019

Great little car from WL toys. Yes a few little issues with the diffs but to be honest it’s not too hard to rectify. Lots of hop ups available and in my opinion extremely good value for money.

Very good value for money, needs work though pre running

Very good value for money, needs work though pre running. drivetrain is sticky, needs disassembly and removal of excess plastic from moulds and needs sanding down of parts. also for suspension.
good value though. would buy it again

Great little car worth every penny

Jun 13, 2019

I had intended to get one for a while for conversion to CS Geared drift car. As a straight out of the box car, it's a fun little vehicle that's being held back a little by the extremely tight gear box. Go through cleaning up the gear box/diffs is a must and this little car will find more oompf than you originally thought it had.
It's a very cheap, hobby grade RC that's worth every penny. It's an easy recommend for anyone looking for a cheap way into RC with something that isn't toy grade. It has a full list of replacement, hop up and metal parts available as well as a little cross compatibility with some of the other little cars of it's scale.

Big fun for small money is

Jun 04, 2019

When I ordered the rc car I had no big expectations. But when I unpacked it and found out how high quality and compact the car is, I was thrilled. It is built like a 1:10 and then shrunk to 1:28. Especially with the included charging cable and a power supply for mobile phones it takes about 1 hour until the battery is fully charged. But then you also have a good half hour of fun with pens and full throttle. Even if something breaks no problem because you can reorder all spare parts at a super low price here. Would recommend it to everyone who is looking for something to pass the time at home, at work or anywhere else where there is little space. Can only recommend it to everyone... especially at this price.

Awesome little car

May 16, 2019

Small, cheap, durable and almost too fast for indoors. the only downside is the diffs which are nowhere close to smooth and sometimes they tend to lock up. But at this price you can't really complain

For starters!

I got this as a gift for my brother, out of the box I noticed that the front of the body skids on the carpet. Raising the front body clip post fixed it. Also the body is reeeeeeaaally loose... some foam pieces needed to be cut in order to stop the body shaking around. Next is to order replacement for differential and if you feel like crazy, swap it out with a Kyosho mini-Z diff assembly!
Onto the electronics. The motor runs extremely hot, a 2T lower on the pinion helps especialy if you run it on carpet.
Now it said "Rally car" and on a dampened clay surface it clearly shows it is just too small for it :) rising up the suspension might help it but it's a Mini-Z clone.
Overall, buy it if you wanna get into the hobby, I would buy one just to mess around with it :)
