XIXOVRemote Control Car, 1:14 Aluminium Alloy Off Road Large Size Kids High Speed Fast Racing Monster Vehicle Hobby Truck Electric Hobby Toy With Two Rechargeable Batteries

OK, so, I bought this as an impulse buy, at 5am, then a day later decided I would read the reviews and check out a few Youtube reviewsAt first, I was mortified, as the negative reviews painted this product in a bad light, and with a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach, I awaited my purchase---------------Shipping - It showed up fast, had all the parts ( Even came with an extra USB charger ! ) - My only concern about shipping is that it was shipped in the factory box, and not even taped shut, which is rather sloppy, a few inches of tape is cheap. Nonetheless, it was all there, undamaged---------------Ease of use - Took 2 minutes to pop in the batteries, the only difficulty was in getting the battery connection under the car to connect to the battery, but that wasn't because of the clip itself, rather the length of the connection coming out of the car making it a bit trickyThe other issue is that the screws holding this car together are very cheap and will strip easily, in fact my first attempt to get the battery cover off resulted in small metal shavings peeling off the top of the screw, so the user must make sure they use a screwdriver that exactly fits the screw, and also to make sure to apply plenty of pressure when backing the screw out or tightening to avoid stripping the metal------------Speed - This car is pretty fast for a small RC, at least as fast as the Youtube video reviews show it to be, maybe faster. The response of the servos is very fast, so driving it at high speed requires a delicate touch when steering, but it's easy to get the hang of after a few minutes------------Battery life - The battery life is roughly 10-15 minutes, depending on how it's driven, but the car comes with 2 batteries and 2 chargers, so it's at least easy to switch them out------------Range - I have done at least 75 feet with no issues in reception------------Durability - This was where I had a totally different experience than some of the bad reviews. They described wheels breaking off after 5 minutes of play, shocks breaking, etc, and made this out to be a very fragile toy that isn't meant to be treated roughly in any wayThis was not my experience. My experience was that it was very durable, and I repeatedly ran it into curbs, off curbs, from various heights, at high speed, and nothing broke or bent while I was playing with itI drove it straight into a wall at high speed, both in forward and reverse, and it came out just fine, so I assume the people who got ones that damaged easily may have just gotten defective products ( which occasionally happens with cheaper toys )----------------Power - If you are looking for power, and something that will fly over a lawn, or out in the woods over small sticks and rocks, unfortunately this is not the car for you. It has a very small clearance underneath and will easily be defeated by even a short lawn or sticks that are 1" in diameterThis is not a fancy expensive RC crawler, with low gearing and high torque, this is a small fast RC smooth dirt / street racer meant to handle small jumps and slightly rough terrain ( It would be perfect for smooth dirt tracks with small jumps )There's no transmission box, or fancy drive linkage, it's a direct-drive car, and as mentioned, the servos are very fast to respond, so it takes a light finger to maneuver the car deftlyMy experience with the power was also significantly better than the video reviews on Youtube. The reviews show the car to be incapable of driving up any hill over a 2 degree incline, and not even able to make it up a slightly sloped driveway, on smooth asphaltInstead, my car repeatedly drove up a much steeper 40 degree incline, on a smooth board, that I had set up just to test this very abilityI was not disappointed in the least with the power here, and can only assume the bad video review on Youtube was either a weaker battery that has been since replaced by the manufacturer, or the reviewer simply didn't bother to test it with a fully charged battery-------------------Looks - Looks just like the one shown on the webpage, no bait-n-switch here, seller ships what is shown------------------Conclusions : For the money, this car is a pretty decent purchase. This is a prime example of " You get what you pay for "For me, personally, it was a nice way to get a feel for driving RC cars again, ( Been years for me ) so I see it kind of like a training vehicle more than anything, and for the money it's actually quite decent. This would be a perfect RC starter for a younger child ( I'm thinking 5-8 years of age ), and perfect for small, smooth dirt tracks, asphalt, concrete and the likeIt's also easily modded, since the construction is very simple, so just a little creativity can easily extend the value and replay attraction ( For example: It's a perfect size to kitbash with model car / truck kits ), and the fast responsivity of the servos can easily be tamed by simple adjusting the metal tabs / springs inside the controller ( for those wanting a more crawler-like experience )I noticed quite a few bad reviews for this car while I was waiting for it, but honestly, I am happy with my purchaseThe shipping charge was even refunded ( I don't know why, since it came on time, but thank you all the same )

Well made, rugged toy car that can be used outdoors over a garden terrain as advertised. Battery compartment could be a bit larger to accommodate the battery pack plus its connector.

箱を開けたら謎のネジ一本落ちてきました。開ける前から変な小物の音していて開けたらどこから落ちてきたか不明のネジ一本。やっぱりと思いました。検品しているとは思えないです。すぐに返品しました。

After doing a lot of research, I bought this remote controlled car for my young son. Really, I wanted to play with it, but I did feel that the operation of a remote control car is good for mental development and motor skills. He also loves (loves) cars. I was likewise into cars as a kid and have a lot of fond memories of playing with remote control cars mostly in the 1990s. Not that much has changed actually.What has changed is battery technology, and the affordability of high quality and sophisticated electronics components such as wireless transmitting gear and motors. For what you can get today for this price is amazingly refined for the money. The car it self has a rally car / dune buggy look to, which is pretty nice not per se exciting. As a scale model it has a lot of detail and has an air of high-quality parts. With that said, I wish it felt a bit more durable. Remote control cars get slammed into walls and obstacles so often, I went these things built with armor on all sides.It comes with two batteries and two chargers - which is nice. Battery life wasn't great, but none of these devices are since the motors burn through juice rapidly. While the toy is snappy for the money, I could tell that I would have wanted a lot more speed if I didn't need this toy to operable for a young child. I also feel like it could have accelerated a lot faster.As an off-road style vehicle, it certainly does go over a few more surfaces than race-car style remote control toys, but it isn't like an off-road truck. Two wheel drive is the first limiting factor. The car could also have a bit more ground clearance. The tires are a problem as well. They keep slipping off the wheels. This is fixed pretty easily, but it is annoy that once this remote control car really starts to get pushed in maneuvers... a tire need slip off the wheel and the fun must take an annoying pause.The car has cute little brake lights that display when you put it in reverse, and front LED lights when it is going forward. The forward lights are amusingly weak. They don't even let you as the operator see the ground in front of the car - so what is the point of even having them?I've played with much worse remote control cars than this product, and it remains among the nicer I've purchase for a child. I think the same company makes even nicer stuff, and I'd be willing to check them out. It has been too long since I've be able to shop in a store for remote control toys, so these days it is challenging to know what type of money you need to spend for a high-grade enthusiast-oriented product. That this remote control car isn't, but for the money is makes for a satisfying toy for someone to determine if they want to upgrade into something more interesting in the future.

Purchased during quarantine due to Covid 19, April 2020. This came about a week earlier then the expected ship date and made it in time for my son's Easter basket.First I'm going to start with the PROS:-excellent customer service! Customer service gets five stars! Great email communication and sent a full replacement and we received it within a week.Will explain why under "cons "-I'm not used to remote control cars, I'm a stay-at-home mother with a soon-to-be 11-year-old son. With that being said I think this is great for beginners, HOWEVER,with guidance!!!!It has parts that are quite delicate,it's definitely not up for rough and tumble play.If it's just used in large open spaces and its not going to hit,drop,or fall,then you should be good.The metal part holding the wheel to the body is quite delicate and can not take a crash of much force.-Fast!Plenty of zip my 10 yo son-the wireless part of it has a very long range. We were in a school parking lot and it could go from one end to the other and back again.-It comes with two battery packs. The batteries will last a certain length of time depending on the kind of use you are having with it. On average the battery lasts us 15 maybe 20 minutes. Pop in another battery and you've got another 15 or 20 minutes of use.-ours came with two battery packs and two chargers and a convenient little screwdriver for the remote control battery pack and the car battery pack.-Nice medium to large size and my son thinks it is cool looking. (We got the red one)CONS- We are beginner remote control car users. Have not had much experience. I think this can be a great beginner remote control but I would say it would not be for younger children that are going to have the desire to smash and crash or climb and drop and fall off rocks, or not have the control of the remote.On our first day of use we took it down to an empty school parking lot. We were having great fun with it until my son got too close to a curb and it hit the curb. It seemed to have bent the metal piece connecting the tire to the main body. My husband was able to manually set it back and fix it. However, again it hit the side of a curb and then it was not repairable.Based on the description and the videos I felt it was going to be more robust and a good car for a young beginner. But my young beginner would like the availability to be rougher with it than it can take. It is definitely a more delicate piece of machinery. He did not mean to hit the curb It was more of an accident.Other than that we like everything about the vehicle. I contacted the company to see if there was perhaps a replacement part I could purchase. They got me in touch with another part of the company that automatically said they would send me an entire replacement vehicle.! They did ask to therefore receive a good review and I feel I am being honest in my review for them.Not only did they send a replacement vehicle but it came with another two batteries, remote and everything that was with the original set.They did not ask me to send the original back and we plan on keeping it for replacement parts if needed.I would purchase this again because based on the price and all the the other pros and the excellent customer service we are very happy with it.We will just make sure we continue to use it in wide open spaces and on flat ground. And away from curbs!
