The Dafotil 1/18 Amphibious Monster Truck is built for adventure on land and water. Designed with 4WD all-terrain capability, waterproof electronics, and a rugged body, this RC monster truck lets kids and beginners tackle puddles, trails, and lakes with confidence right out of the box.
Performance
This model features 4WD with high-traction tires to grip on off-road surfaces like gravel, grass, and mud. Its ability to drive in shallow water or over wet terrain is supported by waterproofed components. The 2.4GHz remote control ensures a stable signal without interference, allowing for full directional control, including forward, reverse, left, and right.
Design and Features
The truck body is designed like a monster truck—with high ground clearance, oversized tires, and a pickup-style shell. It features LED lights for enhanced visibility, and the shell is waterproof-sealed to protect the internals when crossing wet terrain. It also has decorative alloy-style parts and an optional alternate shell so kids can swap looks.
Build Quality
Molded rugged plastic and sealed electronics help keep out water and dust. The tires are chunky and built to resist slipping on slick surfaces. The truck’s structure is designed for durability, with reinforced bumpers and strong axle housings to withstand minor impacts and splash abuse.
Control & Handling
With full-proportional steering and throttle via a 2.4GHz remote, steering is responsive and smooth. The waterproof remote transmitter increases reliability outdoors. Handling is steady at low to moderate speeds, especially important for navigating mixed terrain and water crossings.
Ease of Use & Maintenance
This Ready-to-Run model comes fully assembled. It includes rechargeable batteries and requires only a few AA cells for the remote. Maintaining the truck mostly involves rinsing off water after aquatic use, drying interior electronics, and cleaning the drivetrain to prevent rust or corrosion.
Special Notes
Everything essential is included: the truck, rechargeable battery pack, and USB charger. AA batteries for the remote control are not included.
