Threeking 1/16 Waterproof Amphibious Police Truck – 4WD RC Monster Truck
Threeking 1/16 Waterproof Amphibious Police Truck – 4WD RC Monster Truck
The Threeking 1/16 waterproof amphibious police truck is a rugged, all-terrain RC vehicle built for land and water adventures. With a sealed body, 4WD drive system, and realistic police-siren LED lights, this Ready-to-Run model is a hit with kids who love thrilling outdoor play.
Performance
Thanks to its four-wheel-drive (4WD) drivetrain, the truck delivers solid traction across grass, gravel, and shallow water. The electric motor provides enough torque to climb moderate terrain, while the waterproof shell safeguards the electronics during amphibious action. According to user reviews, it's water-resistant rather than truly submarine-capable — small puddles and shallow splashes are fine, but deep, sustained submersion should be avoided.
Design & Features
This RC truck features a police-themed body, complete with siren lights and realistic detailing. The rubber tires offer shock absorption, and soft elastic compound helps grip both wet surfaces and dirt. Anti-collision beams on the front and rear add durability, improving its ability to withstand rough use.
Battery Life & Runtime
The package reportedly includes two high-capacity rechargeable batteries, giving up to 50 minutes of combined playtime when fully charged — though realistic session times may be lower depending on terrain and usage. Charging is done via USB, which makes it easy to recharge, though the included cable may wear over time, according to some users.
Control & Handling
The 2.4 GHz transmitter supports anti-interference capabilities, allowing up to six Threeking vehicles to race together. Steering and throttle are reasonably responsive for its class, but note: the remote control is not waterproof — keep it dry to avoid damage.
Durability & Maintenance
Its waterproof body design helps protect internal electronics in wet conditions, but users report that “waterproof” may mean splash-proof rather than fully submersible — drying and rinsing after water play is recommended. The anti-collision beams provide extra protection during impacts, and the modular design allows basic maintenance, such as cleaning crevices after muddy or aquatic runs.
User Feedback & Real-World Use
Hobbyists note that while the shell holds up well to water, long-term submersion or extended exposure may still damage internal parts. Some also mention that parts availability is limited, as this is more of a toy-grade RC rather than a high-end hobby model. On the plus side, reviewers say it’s a strong value for younger or casual users looking for amphibious play.
Special Notes
The set includes the amphibious truck, two rechargeable batteries, a USB charger, and the 2.4 GHz transmitter. The remote requires AAA batteries, which are not included; the remote itself is not water-resistant and should be kept dry during use.
