ZD Racing EX16 1/16 Scale 4WD Brushless Electric Touring Car Ready-to-Run
The ZD Racing EX16 is a 1/16 scale on-road touring car designed for enthusiasts seeking a compact, high-speed RC experience. This 4WD brushless model offers responsive handling suitable for indoor tracks or smooth outdoor surfaces, providing an accessible entry into RC touring car driving.
Performance
Equipped with a 2435 3300KV brushless motor and 30A brushless ESC, the car reaches speeds of 35-40 km/h. The 4WD drivetrain delivers power to all wheels for improved traction during acceleration and cornering on paved or smooth surfaces. Reduction gear ratio of 6.8:1 supports consistent performance across runs.
Build Quality
The chassis features CNC machined aluminum alloy with hollow design for reduced weight and added strength. Numerous metal structural parts, steel drive shafts, and high-speed bearings contribute to overall durability. Nylon painted wheels and a detailed body shell complete the assembly.
Control
A 2.4GHz 4-channel radio system provides control at distances over 100 meters. The 2.2kg metal gear servo offers precise steering response. Owners note that factory settings may benefit from transmitter adjustments for optimal throttle and steering sensitivity.
Design and Features
The full-scale inspired body includes LED ambient lights for visual appeal during low-light operation. The compact dimensions (320x134x98mm) and lightweight construction around 700g make it easy to transport. Oil-filled shocks and independent suspension help manage bumps on suitable surfaces.
