MJX Hyper Go 14304 1/14 4WD Brushless RC Drift Car with Volkswagen VW Polo WRC Body

The MJX Hyper Go 14304 1/14 4WD Brushless RC Drift Car features a licensed Volkswagen VW Polo WRC body, offering a balance of speed and style for on-road racing. With a brushless motor reaching speeds up to 43 km/h and a pre-installed gyro, this RC drift car supports both drifting and high-speed runs. Its detailed design and LED lights make it suitable for high-speed RC car enthusiasts and collectors of scale models.

Performance

The MJX Hyper Go 14304 uses a 2845 3700KV brushless motor, providing consistent power for speeds up to 43 km/h on smooth surfaces like pavement or indoor tracks. The 4WD system and gyro enhance stability during drifts, allowing controlled slides with practice. The included drift tires support smooth cornering, though grip tires are needed for pure speed runs. Some feedback notes that high-speed turns can feel twitchy without precise throttle control, requiring skill to master.

Build Quality

The car’s chassis features a metal heat sink and cooling fan to manage motor heat, contributing to durability during extended use. The licensed VW Polo WRC body is detailed with accurate decals, but the plastic material may dent under heavy impacts. Full ball bearings improve efficiency, though the small servo (17g) can wear over time with aggressive driving, suggesting occasional maintenance checks.

Control

The 2.4GHz transmitter offers a control range of up to 120 meters, with responsive steering and throttle adjustments. The pre-installed gyro stabilizes the car at high speeds, aiding beginners in maintaining control during drifts. However, the transmitter requires 2 AA batteries (not included), and some users report minor input lag at the edge of the range, which may affect precision in complex maneuvers.

Design and Features

The VW Polo WRC body includes functional LED lights, enhancing visibility and realism for night driving. The 7.4V 2000mAh LiPo battery provides around 20 minutes of runtime, with a 4-hour charge time via USB. The clipless body design allows easy battery access, but the long charging time may limit continuous use. The car’s compact size (320 x 153 x 115 mm) suits small tracks, though its low ground clearance restricts off-road use.

Special Notes: This is a Ready-to-Run model, fully assembled with a painted VW Polo WRC body, 2000mAh LiPo battery, and USB charger included. Requires 2 AA batteries for the transmitter (not included). Suitable for beginners with its gyro-assisted controls, but experienced drivers can adjust settings for advanced drifting or racing.
