Review on Remote Control Car 1/18 Scale 2.4 Ghz High Speed 30+ MPH 4X4 Off Road RC Truck With LED Lights - Great For Adults & Kids By FUNTECH by Keith Wachtel

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Save up for something better.

This truck would be a great buy if only built a little heavier in some key areas. One are being the shock towers, or the 'shore' as the parts list says. In my case the rear shock tower snapped at the base leaving the truck bottomed out. It was a relatively minor impact from a tumble down 3 steps. To complicate matters the repair part 'PX9300-19' is not listed on ebay.com. The front tower 'PX9300-18' is listed and would work however it is only available drop shipped from China from 'frontiertraderus' 51% positive feedback and 35 to 45 days to arrive. if it even does!Furthermore the stated 30mph claim is utterly false. Not a conversion error either, I have seen this truck elsewhere stating 50km/h which is 31mph. I'm going to test this once I repair the truck, I'll update the review then.There are many other trucks of much higher value on ebay. Many in the same price range and higher quality.

Pros
  • Has a premium quality suspension system that provides optimal stability and control
Cons
  • Limited availability
