    • Comparable to High End RC Cars
Had this car for 18 months and thoroughly impressed. DO NOT waste your money on chear walmart RC cars. Spend a little more for something ruggedized that will be harder for the kiddos to destroy.

    • Best Budget Car out there
Super happy with the purchase of this car. First off it's a US family owned business and they are doing a fantastic job in providing high quality RC products at very affordable prices. After seeing other RC cars in this price range, I wasn't expecting much but I was blown away but how awesome this car is. The quality of the build appears to be very impressive. It's a Christmas present so I haven't run it on the ground yet but I powered it up and made sure everything works. First thing was the power I felt in my hand when I throttled it up, wow! Second was how perfect the wheels spun, not a single wobble in any of them. Suspension system looks like it belongs a higher price car. Metal drive links not plastic. Very solid car. Can't wait to use it for real. Thanks and hats off to the Altair family! ... show more

    • So far my husband loves it!
So far my husband loves it and is having a great time playing with it on our property. I’ve noticed it flips over once in a while which he has never complained about. It’s when it hits the taller grass coming from the paved driveway. It goes extremely fast! He is very happy with it and I’m glad I got it for him for Christmas. ... show more

    • Affordable, fast and tough.
Man I wish I had this when I was a kid! It’s hard for me to justify spending four or $500 on a Traxxas right now. The car is super fast, affordable and tough.

For a little kid it’s a rocket but as a adult it just seems slow. I don’t have anything to check the speed but it doesn’t seem to go thirty two miles per hour. It’s undercarriage is made just like a car would be set up and took bumps, corners, jumps all in stride. It’s very light and that helps it fly around so quickly. The hand controller was spot on with no fading from being to far away from the car. However, it’s just to expensive for what it is. At one hundred and fifty nine dollars I very much expected better quality all around and I felt if I dropped the controller it would break easily. It’s a nice setup but for its cost. Three Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️!! ... show more

    • Surprisingly good budget brushless RC
This is a really nice budget RC and a nice step up from the many similar brushed 1/16 RC vehicles available. This is a rebranded truck made in China. I believe it's a Xinlehong Q903, but sold in the US by Altair Aerial. They did it right by rebranding the packaging and everything under their name instead of just reselling it with the factory packaging like many other resellers do. I also have an Altair camera drone, and their aftermarket support was top notch. I had some questions regarding the drone's app, and the owner responded very quickly. That's a lot nicer than waiting for someone in China to respond. So this is brushless with a fully upgraded metal drivetrain -- diff gears, prop shaft, diff drive cups, drive shafts, and ball bearings. I have only driven this fully stock out of the box, so I haven't opened up the diffs or the shocks to see if there's any diff grease or shock oil. I suspect there's a minimal amount of grease in the diffs as both the front and rear have very smooth and free movement. They could benefit from some grease to slow down their action. I'm hoping the shocks are capable of being filled with shock oil as both the front and rear could benefit from some additional damping. The rear is pretty bouncy stock, and if I hit a bump like at the front of my driveway, it's enough to bounce the rear up, sending it flipping over. The tires are a bit on the hard side and don't give a lot of traction on the concrete, but they seem to hook up pretty well in dirt and grass. I had to dial down the steering d/r about 60%, because it was just too twitchy at the top speed of this brushless truck. I'd guess top speed to be right around the advertised speed of 32mph. Run time is good enough that I ran it pretty hard for about 20-25 minutes before I had to head inside, and it still had juice. The brushless system is really nice, and it's a lot quieter than the 1/16 brushed systems in my other cars. There wasn't any issue with cogging, and throttle response is pretty good. Low speed requires a bit of finesse, but who really spends their time in that range with something like this? The transmitter is a basic 2ch transmitter with adjustments for steering trim, steering dual rates, steering reverse, and a HI/LO speed selector. The LO speed is probably quite comparable to a brushed system's high speed, so you can slow things down for younger drivers. The wheel is placed a just a bit out of thumb's reach from the grip, so you you like to drive one-handed, you'll probably want to put in another radio system. There are LED driving lights up front and openings in the bumpers for additional LED lights should you wish to add some more. Overall, I really like this truck, and I will probably open up the diffs to pack some grease in there and look at filling the shocks or upgrading them to oil-filled if they are friction only shocks. While the RC hobby popularity seems to be trending towards the larger scale 1/8 and up vehicles, I prefer these smaller 1/16 scales as they don't need as much room to run. I have a brushed Altair monster truck that's based on the same chassis waiting in the wings, and I expect I will like it just as much. ... show more
