The 1/16 4WD Ready-to-Run RC Stunt Car is a versatile toy for kids, featuring a brushed motor, 360° rotation, and LED headlights. This RC stunt car performs flips, handstands, and double-sided driving on smooth surfaces like floors or pavement. Its 2.4GHz transmitter and rechargeable battery make it a choice for parents seeking a remote control stunt car for indoor play.

Performance

The brushed motor reaches speeds up to 8 mph, enabling 360° rotations and flips. The 4WD system allows all-terrain driving, though best on hard floors. Handstands and wheelies are smooth, but carpet reduces traction. Runtime is 10–15 minutes per charge, with 1-hour USB charging.

Build Quality

Plastic chassis and body are durable for light crashes, with flexible wheels for stunts. The waterproof ESC protects against splashes, but plastic gears may wear with heavy use. Wheels pop off on hard impacts but snap back easily. Spare parts are available for repairs.

Control

The 2.4GHz transmitter has a 50-meter range with buttons for stunts and music. Gesture control responds to hand waves, but accuracy varies. Controls are simple for kids, though the transmitter requires 2 AA batteries (not included). Auto-demo mode performs sequences.

Design and Features

The stunt car body has a colorful design with LED eyes and wheel lights for visibility. The 3.7V 500mAh battery provides 10–15 minutes of runtime. Basic suspension supports handling, but no gyro affects stability. The manual covers basics, though practice is needed for gestures.

Special Notes: This is a Ready-to-Run model, fully assembled with a pre-painted robot body, 3.7V 500mAh battery, and USB charger included. Requires 2 AA batteries for the transmitter (not included). Suitable for kids with simple controls and playful features, but regular maintenance of the jaw mechanism ensures consistent performance.
