This RC car is super FAST!!!! WOW WOW WOW!!!
Love the speed and durability of this RC car!!! WOW! It is well engineered. This is not a toy and it handles very well. Be sure you drive this car in wide open large spaces on concrete or asphalt for best handling. We also drove the car in underground parking structure and the tires are too smooth for the smooth polished concrete. With the throttle trim dialed to top speed the wheels mostly spin and the top speed is too dangerous to operate near concrete walls or pillars. Did I mention this car is SUPER FAST!!! We attempted to jump speed bumps at top or even half speed and the car simply flips upside down and slides on roof. This car is not designed for jumping it is designed for speed. You can make jumps at 10 to 30% power without flipping. It would be nice if the battery lasted longer than approximately 25 minutes. When the battery dies, it simply is dead and the car stops and will not move. This car is NOT FOR KIDS or the beginner RC car user. Did I mention it is FAST!!! If an extended warranty or replacement insurance is offered... buy it! On scale 1 to 5 - my vote is definitely a 5. Hope this review helps!

BLAST OFF ROCKET CAR! NEEDS SUPERVISION...
Parents or adults read this if you are getting this for a young person! This is the fastest rc car I have ever seen. It's true as the advertisment says this is NOT a toy. Is it fun? YES!!! Please understand for a below teenage years person must be supervised. This car has turbo acceleration and could seriously hurt a person, or an animal if used carelessly...So far I have used it 2 or 3 times and the battery works well. As soon as you pull the remote trigger the car blasts off like a rocket in a horizontal direction. The torque, and power of the engine against the weight of the car makes it almost too fast for it's own good. It goes up any hill and literally will jump the hill on it' s own.Space: You must have lots of space, maybe a field to try it out with no people around. It is an awesome, super fast model car that jumps, flies, and flips without any problem. You could easily lose this car into a lake, or someones back yard by accident because of it's speed. The controls take a little time to get used to. The bottom of the car is metal plated, and becomes hot to the touch be careful. This not something for an irresponsible person or kid to have. SUPER FUN!!!

Super fast
You want fast you definitely got it with this car. You can not run this car on dirt because you will just spin out and start doing donuts. Runs great on grass. But on cement or asphalt. That’s where this car shines. It’s super fast and it will not flip over on top speed while taking a sharp turn. Remote is user friendly and battery life is good and durable is awesome. This car is not for beginners. They will destroy it within seconds of it being out of the box.

Great for beginners
This car is really fast stock and easy to crash if you don't know what you are doing... I recommend upgrading the battery because the included batteries don't last long at all, overall a great starter RC for a decent price.

These Chinese cars get too hot!!!!
Be careful when selecting an RC car from China. They get so hot the solder melts off the motor and can spark a fire in dry grass. Buy other than China made RC cars. On top of it all my son tells me the controller malfunctioned, It would not throttle up if the tires were turned... contacted the service department with no response after a week. Buy Chinese and run all these risks. amazon is the responsible party here and I mean that in a good way - they returned this piece of junk.

Wow wow wow! Awesome!!
Everything you would buy at a hobby shop for $200+ all in one box! Raced it against 1/10 losi and Arrma cars all 2s on a dirt track and runs like a champ! So cheap I had to buy another! Small and fast with about 10-12 min run time on a dirt track and only takes 20 or so minutes to charge on a lipo charger! Make sure you take out the front and rear diff and grease them!! Look on YouTube very very easy and white lithium grease super cheap! But will last forever!

Very fast!
My 5 year old grandson wanted the fastest fastest RC car. He is overwhelmed with this and loving it. Not good for indoor use because of it’s speed. But nice to have a way to dial down the speed so he can manage it in the basement. But put it outdoors with some room to go and it’s unbelievable. The quality and independent shocks on the 4 wheel drive are nice.He has one that is half the speed of this one to offset those times he doesn’t have room to let this one fly, but this one is by far his favorite.

It's impressively fast, but not durable.
My r/c experienced 11 year old wanted to step up to a fast 4wd, saw some good reviews on this one, so I bought it. Within the first battery charge, the front suspension arm failed. Returned it to Amazon for a replacement. That one lasted longer- about a week. Had issues with the tires de-rimming, so had to glue them onto the rims. Then during a high speed pass, it just locked up: both front drive shafts were bent, fwd drive shaft bent, brushed motor locked up (almost certainly the cause of all bent shafts) and the combo receiver/esc unit was cooked. (Probably from the locked motor too.Have replaced with a flysky 3ch. Needed to replace steering servo bc was not compatible with standard rc pinouts. Replaced speed controller, replaced locked motor with another 540. All the replacement parts cost more than the original car. Runs fine again, except the body won't fit over the new gear.
