Ok guys , well i had to head into Jaycar today for some biuts and pieces and while in there had to check their remote control shelf to see if there was anything new . WELL .... Here i come across these new 1:32??? rc buggies .
Having a look at it i thought yeah , they look ok and id assume a crawling pace but even so , for only $20 i thought id give it a try .
So , get home , put 4 batteries in the little charger box , 2 batteries in the remote and let it charge for about 5 minutes . Sweet
Once charged i gave it a little hand test to just see how the wheels spun and i kid you not the bloody thing flew out of my hand as it had MASSIVE torque and just cought me off guard and lifted .
Off to the driveway we go , give it throttle ( button type not proportional ) and this thing actually surprised me it was damn quick . Steering was average but if ytou play with throttle and steering you can get that tight turn . I then noticed a button on the top of the remote near the antenna so thought TURBO???? and YESSSSSSS ... mate this thing was just a point and shoot missile .
Ok , the car measures 11cm in length and top speed id call at about 25kph ( its a frikkin bullet im telling you ) so you can imagin that at this speed for that size car , it liiks like a frikkin dart lol .
I managed to deliberately smash it into the gutter a few times at full speed ( cough cough deliberately cough ) and it just bounces off with NOT ONE BIT OF DAMAGE WHAT SO EVER .
After these few hard jits i noticed the front end was just springy and flexy if i forced it and it was then i realised that you could flip the wheels up oven its bonnet and theys simply just spring back to straight again .
Ive then tried jumping off chairs , then tables , then cabinets and F me dead , i cant break this sucker hahahaha .
Its tuff , its quick , its fun ... For only $20 you just cannot go wrong at all .
Hope a few of you guys pick one up over the next few days as you wont regret them
