    Very Fun

    I have had this car for a whole year now and it very fun and easy to build. the battery lasts longer than expected even with a 15T motor mod. The only major problem is that it rolls very easily because the design is so slender. Amazing Beginner Car

    Great service

    Posted by William on Jun 15th 2017

    Was not sure what to order, but received helpful recommendations from the staff at RC Planet. There is not a local hobby store in our area so I will be using RC Planet for future purchases.
