This is a great little RC car! It’s very durable, plenty fast, and has good battery life. I would recommend the 18859A over the 18859. You will appreciate all the upgrades, and I believe it’s worth the price difference. The only complaint is the car can be a little overpowered and squirrelly, but we solved that with a $15 plug and play gyro.

These are FANTASTIC! This is the upgraded version (brushless, better controller, more metal part - axles, oil filled shocks, 3-wire servo, larger capacity battery (2 of em), etc.). WELL WORTH the price bump over the regular 18859 brushed version (spoiler: you can't buy all the upgrades for the price difference). These can go crazy fast or be dialed down to more moderate speeds (ex. for running indoors). Full power easily overwhelms the tires, and becomes hilariously hard to control. Typically when bashing and racing around, we run between 1/2 to 2/3 power -- which is lots of fun! We've actually found that we tend to run faster laps that way vs. full power. I've noticed that these things take a beatin' and keep on tickin'! They are also fairly easy to clean and maintain. A couple notes: - use the included socket wrench to check your lug nuts before you drive (this isn't a problem, per se, but after a half dozen runs I noticed some of mine were getting loose) - they include extra hood pins -- and you'll use them. Impacts and flips tend to dislodge the hood pins and you are bound to lose some. - careful playing around curbs! - they'll run through grass, but tend to be hard to steer because the frontend will be bouncing up in the air alot! But, if you're gonna go off the track, that's the risk you're taking! - if you run in mulch, be wary of sticks getting stuck in the wheels and jamming up the drivetrain. It's easy to clear (just pull them out), but don't continue to try running it if you notice it limping along. These are great for beginners or veterans -- with the adjustable power on the controller, you can turn it up as you gain experience and confidence! There's also an adjustable steering limit, which is great for sharp steering inside, or more stable straight line performance outside. 1/18 scale is a compromise. You can run it inside, but it's a bit big (unless you have a large indoor area). You can run it outside, but it's a tad small. However, it's easy to store or travel with, and TONS OF FUN! I ended up getting one for my Dad, brother, and nephew (12) because they had so much fun bashing and racing with mine and my daughter's! NOTE: If you are getting this for a ~12 year old, please please please go over charging safety with them!

My daughter got countless hours playing with this car. Holds a great charge and that’s not lacking on speed. She does bang them around a little bit which breaks the thin shell. As far as what matters with working parts, it took a lot of punishment and still runs great. I’m her 40-year-old father who never cared to play with remote control cars, but I have a blast also with this.

Much better than expected. Superior to RC cars at local big stores. Appreciate two batteries with two charging cables, bearings, metal axle drive shafts, and of course the powerful brushless motor. Controller also shines with features previously not seen in this price range. This truck is fast at full speed settitng and most likely top much for a child. To fix simply turn down max speed on controller. Run by 7 year with ease although box suggests age 14 and up. So far no broken parts after many crashes. Available spare parts like front suspension and steering components would be great but I am not sure if these are sold. Finally its low price is very satisfying. Enjoy with your family.

This rc car is super fun. I have a Team Associated SC10 short course truck also. The SC10 is fun but expensive when parts wear or break. This truck is much cheaper and honestly is as fast or faster than the SC10. The LED lights are a fun touch. I also love how you can turn the speed up and down from the controller. Honestly about halfway is perfect for me. My 8 yr old son likes to crank it up as fast as it will go. So far it has held up great to a fair amount of abuse. My son and I drive our trucks fairly often and have had some pretty rough crashes and haven’t broken anything. I recently ordered new tires for it (you can see in the pic it’s long overdue for new ones). I didn’t realize until riding these tires though that the truck was supposed to come with second body. Mine only arrived with the purple body. I feel like it’s been too long since I ordered it to try to make a stink about it, just would have been nice to get two bodies. Aside from that, everything has been great. Super long run times, plenty fast for me, Highly recommended.

This car is insanely fast, and tough too. Really good fun. But both the Lipo batteries that came with it died after a couple of uses—I charged as soon as the car stopped responding, but got the red flashing light of doom from the charger. Tried contacting the company but no reply. Found a replacement by Xinlehong that worked, from Aus electronics direct, but would rather have had it work first time! Or have had some response. Apparently DEERC do good customer service; I’ll buy from them next time.

Comes ready to go with two batteries for a total run time of about 40mins. Adjustable speed to allow younger children to learn the controllers easier. Robust enough to survive crashes no problem. Highly recommended for good fun

Great Value!! This truck is durable, very fast and affordable! Would highly recommend!!

I've no background or knowledge about RC's. I did some light research and came across this one. The goal was to find one that my herding dog could chase around and exercise her herding instincts with in the backyard. It has been fantastic. For the price as compared to similar products, you cannot beat it. It rips, my dog is obsessed with it, and by the time we burn through two batteries she is ready to take a break. Perfect product for my use case.

Bought this for my 4 year old as his first “hobby grade” truck. This little thing is rank, crazy tough, and super fast, and I have to turn the speed way down for him to control it. Even for me at max speed it will flip on grass or spin out into donuts on pavement if you aren’t careful with steering. We have thrashed this thing with jumps, crashes into trees and curbs, and a few full speed cartwheels that tumbles 30-40 feet down the street before stopping. Other than a couple small body scuffs, it’s still as good as new. Battery life is actually quite good too especially with two batteries. 100% worth the money. Side note, the GDOOL 1/16 scale paddle tires fit perfectly on this even though they are a bit bigger diameter, and they turn this little truck into an absolute monster in loose dirt and sand. With these paddles you actually have to turn the power down or accelerate gradually or the truck will just instantly backflip.
