DEERC 1:10 Fast RC Cars for Adults, 4X4 High Speed RC Truck Crawler, 48+KM/H, Pink All Terrain Hobby Remote Control Monster Truck with 2 Modular Batteries, Toy Vehicle Gift for Kids

Bought this for my daughter because overall the reviews looked good and it looked like a good entry level type of RC car. Plus it is pink which is her favorite color.Overall it looked sturdy enough and tough enough for her to race around with my hyper go dune buggy.So, package arrives, open up, charge the batteries and turn it on. With thin 5 minutes of use, bumped into a tree branch laying on the ground and the steering cervo arm that connects the control arms to the servo breaks in half.Completely rendering the steering unusable. For the money paid I expected some areas to be a little less sturdy than a more expensive model but for something like this to break so easily, especially with the speed turned to it lowest and it litterly bumped the branch, is in my opinion, unacceptable.I've had 20 dollar walmart rc cars that were more sturdy.Had this not happened I would have given 5 stars as for the other 4 minutes of use it was fast, fun, plowed through grass and claimed over loose dirt with ease.Would not recommend this for anyone unless you plan to completely upgrade it. At that point though, it would be better to get a more expensive model that has more robust internals:::update:::Customer service reached out to me due to my review to fix the situation.They were very courteous and immediately offered a replacement and allowed me to keep the broken one as well. The replacement arrived today and we are looking forward to having fun with the truck. The customer service alone is top knotch with these company. So even if something unfortunate happens like in my case, they will swiftly reach out and rectify the situation.For this I have changed my rating from 1 star to 5 stars because of the customer service alone, the replacement is a bonus at this point

Arrived quickly! Great buy, I am honestly impressed for the price. This is a super fun short track four wheel drive RC vehicle. Would be perfect for beginners or like me a couple friends just racing around. Grandson LOVES it. Battery life is as expected, mostly depends on how you drive. Plenty of time to play and it comes with two batteries. So plenty of fun! It’s fast and durable. I can imagine if you smash it into something hard it WILL break. I’ve flipped it, jumped it and it’s keeps screaming. Parts are available if you do break something. I took the spare tire off and didn’t install the roof bar light supplied. I figured I would tear them off rolling it. After each time a battery is used, I turn the vehicle upside down to allow all dirt, small rocks and debris to fall out. Keep it clean, dry and you will enjoy it…

So this was my first RC since I was a kid. Overall for what you get it was a great value! It is zippy, but I dunno if it really lives up to the 48 kmph claim. It was fast, but didn't seem that fast. And the speed does go down as the battery depletes. But it comes with 2 batteries! It had good power to drive through grass, even steep inclines, as well as hop a curb when I was playing with it. It only has 1 charger though and no charging brick. So make sure you have a USB-A charger to use with it. And don't lose the cord. It only comes with 1 and it looks proprietary. Wish it was USB-C. The base seems solid, but the plastic body is quite flimsy. Which I get, to reduce weight. Just be careful how you pick it up and hold it. The instructions are a bit lacking. 2 pages of "how to use" and the rest parts list and warnings. One thing it doesn't call out and confused me was where the battery goes. I thought it was on the bottom just flipping the RC over, but you have to remove 4 cotter pins and pull the entire body off. It's easy, but for me (and maybe I'm just not used to RCs now a days) it wasn't intuitive nor mentioned in the instructions. Overall, there are some things that could be better, but for the money, I can't complain!

I bought this for my 8 year old daughter. She's been getting into rc cars with me a lot lately and she specifically wanted a pink 4x4 truck. It's a good truck for her. It is fairly quick and it's powerful enough to run it on rough terrain. Its actually larger than I thought it would be. Its nice that it comes with two batteries, I'm not sure why deerc uses these weird proprietary battery packs but they're included.The drivetrain is pretty smooth and the 4wd system is nice. Tires are grippy and suspension is fine. The body shell seems pretty sturdy.I bought this truck while it was on sale so it was a really good price. I think it was under 70 dollars with a coupon.This truck walks the line between a hobby grade rc car and a toy grade. The important drivetrain components are metal which is good, the coils are metal, but nearly every other component is plastic. Which is not actually a bad thing, and to be totally honest, this truck doesn't get up to fast enough speeds to worry about breaking components too easily. And even though they're made of plastic the parts do seem adequately strong.It is a brushed motor doing the work but that's all you need for something like this. It has plenty of power to run around your yard or the park, etc. The steering radius is kind of larger than you'd expect for a hobby rc car with two differentials but they're not bad.The biggest gripe I have is the transmitter is super cheap and not that great to use. I mean it works but it's incredibly cheap. But on the flip side it is a cheap rc car so I guess I can't complain too much.I wouldn't buy it for myself and an RC car enthusiast would probably be disappointed, but for a kid getting into the hobby this will be a good start.
