That was savage. But it has nothing to do with the product or Jetwood. (update) I received the second one in a proper box, but it was still covered in shipping and warning stickers. Whoever did this should wrap the box in palette wrap before applying the stickers. If you want to give this as a gift or keep the box, you can spray WD40 on the stickers and wait 1 hour, then it will peal away without damaging the box. Some people have no respect for the product they sell. As a RC veteran (nitro/lipo) of all scale, I can tell you that this product is 1/3 of the price it should be. This is not only well built, but well engineered. The quality of the product is absolutely unbelievable. My only complain is that it uses Phillips or JIS? screws instead of proper HEX. You get a lot in the box, a lot of spare parts, a lot of tools, 2 batteries and a lot of stickers. I spray painted the transparent second shell for the good days (see pictures). It has a very small delay with the throttle, but not the steering wheel. I bashed it fo 40 minutes in -5c at full speed on asphalt an in 1+ inch of snow. I even did a little bit of light rock crawling with it. That thing will climb anything with proper maneuvers. It also almost always flip back upright after jumps, even the bad ones. After trying it, I decided to buy another one immidiately, for my nephew. And I will definitely buy the 1/14 Jetwood soon. This thing is not a toy, this is serious hobby grade RC. It handles jumps really well. I feel that 2S battery is the max for this size. Don't buy the 3S battery, the speed won't make any sense for that size. Already at 2S, it is very much over power. You probably will use 70% power most of the time. I would recommend buying this over an equivalent Traxxas, Hpi, Rlaarlo and Arrma brand. While these old clowns sell RC cars twice the price of this one with old brushed motors without any proper batteries included. This Chinese company is treating the customers with respect with all the latest technology at decent price. No compromized were made here, this is the full package. Look at this thing, it looks amazing. It has even a 3 channel remote with a 3 channel receiver, so you can control something else if you want to. Another plus of Jetwood company is that they sell all their replacements and upgrades parts on desertcart. So you won't be forced to deal with antique hobby shop website and wait 2 weeks for the parts. Take a look at the Jetwood upgraded parts, bodies and tires. They are serious, this car can be upgraded and also maintained for a while. This should be your first RC and if you are a veteran and you are looking for a fun 1/16, get this. I hope the American RC companies catch up to the Chinese, but I suspect that things will get even better for the Chinese RC. Review: I bought two of these cars one each for my son and I.We love how fast and fun these cars are.I am blown away by how fast and fun these cars are.Sadly after our third time of playing with these extremely fast cars off road one of the differentials broke and I lost power to one of the four wheels.I emailed the company dorect and they immediately without hesitation sent me (free of charge I may add) upgraded new parts......and a little present for my son.....the cars them self are fast and very durable considering the rough conditions we put them through.They run on grass dirt and on cement (very fast)....they are faster then I thought they'd be and the battery and play time is about 40 to 45 mins per battery that only take two hours each to re-charge and there customer service is better then any I've ever dealt with. I would recommend this product to everyone a five star rating for sure !! 🇨🇦 ## Features - 【42/28mph Brushless Speed Machine】All new design 1:16 RC car powered by 4200kv 2845 brushless motor.

I would recommend this product to everyone a five star rating for sure !! 🇨🇦 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***E on 8 November 2023* After searching and reading reviews for hours on many different RC cars offered on Amazon. I made the decision to purchase this one and I have zero regrets. It is extremely fast, very easy for my eight year old son to drive and control, very durable thus far and with all of the jumps and loops we’ve driven it through. It still works perfectly. Here it is my list of pros and cons. Pros: Very fast (but not uncontrollable) Battery life is decent (about 15 minutes on 70% power) but it came with two batteries and that’s a huge plus! It came with spare parts, such as extra shocks and front axle. You can control the front trim a.k.a. alignment with the remote, as well as varying the intensity of the throttle. There are many more pros, but those are the main ones. Cons: The wheelie bar that came with it as an additional accessory really helps control the car when taking off very fast, but it is also the least resilient part of the car, and has already broken at the bottom screw, but was also able to be repaired with some super glue. That’s not exactly ideal, and is why it made my cons list. That is honestly the end of my cons list. Whether you are buying it for a younger kid or yourself (if you’re an adult like I am) I highly recommend it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Jetwood x Hyper go 1/16 Fast Brushless RC Cars for Adults, Max 42 mph High Speed Remote Control Car for Boys, Electric RTR Race RC Truck, Hobby Grade RC Buggy, Offroad All Terrian JC16EP with 2 Lipo - HYPER GO H16BM 1/16 RTR Brushless Fast RC Cars for Adults, Max 42mph Electric Off-Road RC Truck, High Speed RC Car 4X4 Remote Control Car with 2 Lipo Batteries for Adult, Compatible 3S Lipo - HYPER GO H16PL 1/16 RTR Brushless RC Buggy, Fast RC Cars for Adults, Max 38 mph RC Truck, 4WD High Speed Racing RC Car with 2S 2000 mAh Battery for RC Basher --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/717065534-1-16-fast-rc-car-brushless-42mph-remote-control-car](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/717065534-1-16-fast-rc-car-brushless-42mph-remote-control-car) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
