I rarely write reviews on products but I feel this one needs it. The car came in excellent shape and took about 20 minutes to put together. This was mostly caused by trying to get the antenna wire through the straw which is always difficult. Charging the battery would have taken 10 hours with the standard connections so I remade the connections to work with my quick charger and the car as well. This took about 10 minutes.
Charged up I took the car outside. The controller is the typical pistol grip but has some excellent trim choices for speed bursts and for steering. With another 2 minutes of adjusting I was ready.
The car is not only a speed demon it is amazingly accurate in its steering performance. Within maybe 4 minutes my wife, who had never driven an RC car, was spinning around the parking lot. The car goes exactly where you want it at the speed you want it. It's range was more than 75-100 yard which is amazing considering the car is almost impossible to see at that distance. The battery lasted for 11 minutes and still had plenty of charge before it got to dark to safely continue.
Pros:
Fast, perhaps 25mph+ I am not sure
Excellent battery life
Incredible steering performance
Excellent controller and very easy to decide just how fast you want to go
Looks amazing
Light
Cons:
After the drive I noticed the right shock had a ring at its bottom fall out. I found it in the kitchen and put it back on. This car is awesome but not built as tightly as more expensive cars. Head on collisions are more likely to cause something to pop off than say a Traxxas.
Car Antenna wire-I never understood why they make the fit so tight when you end up putting a camp on them anyway. I really did a piece of work on the antenna by the time I got it together and most likely damaged it a bit.
