Pros- looks cool- batteries last longer than expected- PriceCons- doesn't work well in grass- controller distance is about 50ft until it won't interact with it anymore- parts holding the wheels on are very weak. A couple big hits and the wheel may break off.Overall, it's a great but for someone getting into RC cars. If you don't want to spend $500+ on one of gas powered RC cars, this is a great substitute. I use it to play with the dog in the house (hardwood floors) and outside (paved driveway). As soon as it got in the grass, it would get under the body enough to keep the wheels from touching, so it would get stuck. Best on flat surfaces.
