SG Pinecone Forest 1008 RTR 1/10 2.4G RWD Tricycle RC Car

The SG Pinecone Forest 1008 RTR 1/10 2.4G RWD Tricycle RC Car is a unique RC tricycle with a sleek three-wheel design, perfect for hobbyists seeking fast, fun on-road RC cars. Featuring a brushed motor, LED lights, and full proportional control, this black racer offers thrilling performance for beginners and enthusiasts.

Performance

Powered by a 390 brushed motor and a 7.4V 1500mAh Li-ion battery, this tricycle hits speeds up to 30 km/h. The rear-wheel-drive (RWD) system and single front wheel deliver agile handling on smooth pavement, with a built-in gyro aiding stability for drifts. Some users note shorter battery life at full throttle, around 12–15 minutes, but a spare battery extends playtime. The foam tires grip well but may slip on wet surfaces, so dry tracks are best.

Design and Features

The pre-painted black polycarbonate body sports a futuristic tricycle look with detailed decals and functional LED headlights for night runs. The plastic chassis is lightweight yet durable, though it may scratch during rough tumbles. The single front wheel and rear stabilizers create a unique driving feel, and the car supports upgrades like a brushless motor. No cooling fan is included, but the ESC handles moderate runs well.

Ease of Use and Maintenance

The 2.4GHz radio provides smooth, proportional control over a 60-meter range, ideal for new drivers. The included 7.4V 1500mAh Li-ion battery charges in about 2.5 hours via USB. Maintenance is simple with an accessible chassis, though small screws may loosen over time. Water-resistant electronics handle light splashes, making it versatile for outdoor use. Four AA batteries for the radio are not included.

Special Notes: This is a Ready to Run model, fully assembled, 7.4V 1500mAh Li-ion battery, and USB charger included. Requires four AA transmitter batteries. Suitable for ages 8+ with upgrade options.
