Review on SUV Remo Hobby Smax RM1631, 1:16, 28.5 cm, blue/black by Micha Dbrowski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product at a good price, I advise you to try it.

If you want to try out your first RC SUV (or your kid) and not have to shell out a lot of money for it, this is a good choice. The machine is fast, sharp, very impressive from the very beginning. But because of her agility, it is easy to lose control and take out several modules. You should immediately read about the weak points of this model and the main consumables to buy with a set of spare parts and protection, which will most likely come in handy in any case. Now there is a version on sale that is twice as expensive, but with better components - I would advise you to take it, because. stock plastic starts to break very quickly even from weak collisions, which are inevitable. And you need to immediately understand that there will always be breakdowns - this is the norm, you will have to master the basic principles of repair (YouTube to help), the operation of the engine and battery, etc. I strongly advise you to immediately buy metal plates for the bumper and bottom for protection, I have it on the first during the trip, the plastic bottom burst in half with a very slight collision with the curb. This model can be actively tuned, but rather it is worth understanding whether it likes this business or not, and if so, then look at more models and already invest in tuning them. And if you give it to children, then first limit the acceleration power on the remote control so that at the first gas into the wall the child does not smash the car or something at home.

Pros
  • Low price of the base model, availability of spare parts and upgrades, ready to work out of the box (excluding batteries for the remote control), high-spirited
Cons
  • Low quality of basic components - breakdowns begin immediately, even without aggressive driving
