Packaging, chassis and drive of this model are identical to several other offerings from Amazon. Transmitter and receiver are different in some cases significantly. Probably all are made in the same factory in China.
At first I had ordered another vehicle for our child, because I had previously already made satisfactory experience with the brand Jamara. That drove unfortunately only one afternoon and had serious deficiencies in the operation on. Then I ordered the reviewed here model that despite the same price level was found to be clearly superior technically.
The car comes in a nice box with a dozen small game pylons like the children very well.
According to the technical similarities all these vehicles have the same mechanical weaknesses. They feature 5 speed steps. Within these speed steps, the speed can be controlled fully proportional, which allows only the two lowest levels of use halfway useful. At level 3, it is very difficult due to the low weight of the model, despite the good, fully proportional control, to avoid crashes and rollovers. The front axle is more delicate and is doing well, according to other reviews are relatively easy to break.
The remote control is ergonomically designed and can be operated intuitively. Even the hands of children from about 5 years were pretty good deal with it.
The small engine is unfortunately relatively weak and the model is only conditionally for trips outdoors also due to the very low weight. There curves quite easy thanks to the compact dimensions of the living room furniture. In the lowest level of propulsion is so leisurely and dosed that children may very well gather initial experience with this model. Recommended is however only under supervision, since the vehicle is simply not built strong enough, at least for smaller children.
Advantages of this model compared to the linked above its competitors:
* Currently, SEU hardening 2.4GHz Hochfreqzenztechnik without long antennae. This also simple operation of several vehicles at a time
* Steering and propulsion work proportionally.
* You will need 4 x AA cells (the competition in some cases up to 6)
* Intuitive remote control with display of the active gear and trim on the transmitter.
Besides this vehicle is still there an optically completely identical and even more favorable by s idea. However, there is in the reviews that it was not to control proportional. Thus the reviewed model here would be the clear winner in this comparison.
Conclusion: Little racer with great potential fun! However, suitable for small children due to the rather delicate construction supervision. Tip: If necessary, look at the WHD, if you can not also order a cheap second car for spare parts. At this price level that does not particularly hurt!
