HBX 1:18 Scale All Terrain RC Car 18859E, 30+MPH High Speed 4WD Electric Vehicle with 2.4 GHz Radio Controller, Waterproof Off-Road Truck Included Battery and Charger

Muy buen vehículo de control remoto. Lo único que esperaba es que fuera un poco más grande. La carcasa superior es muy delgada y se puede quebrar fácilmente. Lo demás está excelente. Tiene muy buena potencia.

Our 5 year old son absolutely loves this RC car. It is incredibly fast, good quality and withstands lots of rough rising on dirt, grass and doing jumps. Comes with 2 batteries which is great to keep using while the other battery charges. Charge lasts well and not too long to recharge. My husband is so impressed with it he plans to get one for himself too! Well worth the money.

Wow, what can I say about this little beast. Probably one of the best little basher there is. It exceeds expectations, it is super tough, very quick for it's size and handles great. The "fun factor" of these are way higher than many other faster more "high end" name branded RCs. I have 3 of these myself. After showing them off to my family and friends, they have ordered some for themselves because they were so impressed with it. You can bash these without worrying about breaking them within reason! Even in the rain! Yes they are waterproof, more so than I expected, but still wouldn't advise getting it fully submerged (although I took mine through some huge mud puddles, and still all good). I do suggest you clean and WD-40 after running it in the harsh elements to keep it alive and well. I would say the only weak points or cons so far I have found are: -Body shell is thin and will crack quick. However you can cure this by gorilla taping the inside of the shell. It will do wonders, especially where the body mount holes are. While it does add minor weight, it makes the body able to hold up to the abuse the rest of the RC can endure. -Body clips are super thin and these RCs will shed them the first time you roll or flip it. Highly recommend ordering extras and having them on hand when you go out and bash. I ordered some 1/16 clips by apex on Amazon and they are much heavier duty and will actually stay in, plus they come in a pack of 100 so if you do lose one you have tons of spares. -Battery that comes with it does not give you much run time, maybe 10 mins maximum. It also doesn't unleash the true potential of these little RCs. I highly recommend buying a LiPo for it (search "7.4v 1100 mAh LiPo JST", there are a couple options. These are the batteries for WLtoys A949, A959, A969, A979 and A929 and will fit into the HBX Rampage, Hailstorm, and Rachet. You just have to move the screw up one hole on your battery hold down). These batteries are probably the biggest upgrade you can do along with adding the upgraded oil shocks. Turns this thing into a little animal with added punch and acceleration, along with 2x or more the runtime. Only thing is to be mindful about not running the battery too low as I do not believe the ESC has a LiPo cutoff so if you run it too low it can damage the LiPo. -Shocks that come stock are friction style without oil and are extremely bouncy and make it a bit hard to control, and do not protect the chassis from bottoming out so you will bang it up quick. The upgraded oil shocks available for these are completely worth it. Highly recommend. Makes this RC go from toy to hobby grade. The only part I have broke on these is a part in the steering assembly. I would say this is the only weak link in this whole platform. I wish they had an upgrade for it but unfortunately they do not. Just be aware this is the part to check after hard hits and crashes. I have broke 2 on 2 separate occasions. Both were probably my fault as I'm not easy on these at all but as stated before, it is a weak point. What makes it even tougher is the part is not available from anywhere in the USA and has to be ordered from China. It took about 3 weeks for me to get so if you do break this part be expecting a bit of down time. I would also recommend buying extras if and when you do order it. (HBX part# 18109). Overall, I can't say enough good things about this little RC, it has been one of the best most reliable and fun RCs I have ever owned, period. Highly recommend. Thing will take abuse and just keep going, and has great performance to boot. I always bring one in a backpack when I go out bashing any of my other RCs and always end up ending the bash session with it! (My little Ole reliable!) Just wish any of the parts were able to get faster. Thank you and I hope this helps anyone looking at these great little RCs.

Bought this for my daughter based off good reviews. The first few times we started it up, both front wheels would pivot to the right, and no amount of trim adjustment could get them lined up straight. This made it really difficult to drive and we had to constantly fight it to keep it driving in a straight line. I tried to find solutions online, but they were all related to adjusting trim or doing something to the servo motor. I had no interest in taking it apart to fix. Just wanted it to work. Cut to today: we fired it up and the wheels auto straightened themselves out properly and we drove it full tilt without issue. The only thing I can attribute this to is that my daughter ran it full speed into the curb 4 or 5 times. Maybe this shook something loose which helped the alignment? I don’t know. All I know is that this thing is a rocket and pretty fun to drive. My kid is 9 and has no trouble controlling it even at full speed (now that it drives straight). The “slow” mode is still really fast, and great for when my 7 year old wants a turn. I’m 3 days, it’s held up to curb flips, rolling across the lawn, and front impacts at almost full speed. Nothing has broken yet, but the headlight popped out (easy to stick back in). For $100 I don’t think we could ask for much more. If the alignment issue comes back, I’d change my review to 3 stars, but as it is now, it’s 5.

I have a video my son and I did showing all the important details about this cool little truck.

My son wanted to use his birthday money to buy an RC car. We picked out a really cool looking one from Walmart for $30 and the thing wouldn't even go in our gravel driveway. We promptly took it back and headed to the hobby store to see what they had. They had a sister brand to Traxxas that were smaller 1:18th scale trucks that fit the bill but were $150. He didn't have that much money to spend so I was going to spend the extra to get him something good. We decided to look online and ran across this little gem called the Rampage. It's got an adjustable fast/slow speed on the remote which is great for a kid learning to drive or even in tight places. It's still pretty fast in "slow" but when in high speed it's almost too fast to control at times but helps it actually still drive through tall grass. We have jumped it off huge ramps, crashed it into brick walls, and the thing just keeps going. The only issue we've had was a bad charger that we got replaced. The only other issue is we've had an axle come out of the hub twice. Once was because of a loose screw which we tightened down, and once was because my dog chased it and bit it hard. Each time was an easy fix and it just popped right back in and we were off and running again. It comes with 2 batteries and they charge in about an hr and last 15-20mins each. This package has everything you need to get going and drive for a while. You can find replacement batteries for as cheap as $12 a piece(links above) and upgrading the shocks from the stock(which are just springs with not dampening) to the oil filled dampened metal ones for $20(link above) is a great upgrade and makes a huge difference. It helps it soak up jumps better but most of all makes it easier to drive. Before in our gravel driveway if you got going fast, it would bounce all over the place so bad you couldn't control it. With the upgrade it is much easier to control. For the money, this RC can't be beat. At least from what I've experienced. My 6yr old does great with it but I wouldn't suggest it for anyone younger.
