Hmm, I guess it would depend on the 4 year old and if they have any previous experience with RC cars or not. You may have to help with some of the initial setup, battery charging/fitment, but as far as driving I think you could put it on the low speed mode starting out in a nice open area and I think they could pick it up fairly quick. Its pretty durable as long as you dont ram it full speed into hard objects but that should be obvious to adults lol. Id say the most difficult part for a 4 year old would not be the driving but the process of how your supposed to turn everything on and hook up the battery wires and things like that.
I think they could handle it. Its not so fast that it will get out of hand easily and you can crank it down to a slower speed setting to start out. Its also pretty tough for the price. Iv beat it up a lot and haven't broke anything. Comes with easy USB charger.
Yea it's tricky at first. It's like they only go in one or two sequences. I can try and send you a image or quick video of how I put them in. It's a tight fit even when putting on the clamp down cover
yea its kind of hard idk if ill be much help but my dad got me one yesterday for my bday and this morning i found out how. it comes with a little spare connector you can connect both batteries you need to put both of them flat and then you should be able to put the clamp cover on then you should be ready to go
Hi Glenn. I assume you are referring to the camera I had placed on the car towards the end? That is a Sony FDR X3000. Its a little bit of an older action cam by Sony but it still holds up to some of the newer GoPros. A bit smaller too!. The footage didn't come out very crisp in this one because the mounting bracket i attached to the top of the car body had come a bit loose. Which is why you see a lot of the vibration, causing a bit of blurriness. definitely not the cameras fault!
Debating on this one or a different one. I thought it says you can't put over on if you install 2 batteries. How are you able to put the cover on? Any update ok how its still doing?
Hello there. Mine is still running fine! I'm not sure where it was said that you cant get both batteries in. They say you can use both on their website for longest run times. The batteries are tricky to get in especially the first couple try's. They only fit in there a certain way and it is somewhat of a tight fit. Once you figure out how to place them and get the connecting wires routed, you can get the battery cover on no problem. Maybe I will make a quick video on how I put them in since you aren't the first person to ask.
@@FalcoINC yes, please do. I was looking towards this one because of that feature. It says it somewhere, either description or question that if you use 2 batteries you have to use the strap to hold it down and can't put cover on.
@@blakklightn3n310 I guess it depends on what you want out of it. Its not going to be a speed demon flying at 30+mph speeds. Not nearly on the level of like a 3s Lipo truck or anything. But quick enough for smaller areas of pavement or dirt or mowed grass or SNOW if you watched my other video on this truck lol. You can turn down the speed setting and let the kids or friends play with it and not worry about them losing control! I have run it fairly hard and haven't managed to break anything yet so its pretty tough for the price range. When its on sale for $160 for the whole package id say that's a good deal. The lights are cool and bright. Radio works fine. Feels solid. And you don't have to go out and buy batteries as they include two of them! What other cars were you looking at?
Don't go by how cool it looks, They do not last long they are made out of crap, All these things do is break, figured I bought a lemon so I bought another one and the same thing happened to the other car, you get what you pay for!
Do you use both batteries or just one while driving it . Whenever I press the power button on the rc it just turn the front lights on and not the light on the side
Honestly i thought they used to say 40 or 45km as top speed. I'm going to try and dig out the box and see what mine says. If anything I would say I was slightly under the rating on my box when I tested it. Ill go see what mine says as I thought it was 40-45km or something around there
Yeah some of the parts are. Not sure about all of them. If you go to the legend website they actually sell a lot of spare/replacement parts for the truck at decent prices. One thing to be aware of is the wheel hex nuts. Id recommend making sure you tighten them up before each run. I forget sometimes and have had a few loosen and fly off during driving lol. So I bought some spares.
Will do man, sub for the update when I post it! Im getting a gps unit soon along with a new Arrma Typhon V5 6s. I'll charge both batteries full and get you a speed run!

I’m not happy I ordered this. They had it saying it goes 68 KM and it doesn’t. My top speed was only 45 KM with the two batteries
Not sure who you mean by “they" it's says everywhere I see it's 45-50 max including right on the box...
@@FalcoINC In Canada on Amazon they advertised it as 68 KM plus speed. My Traxxas is faster than this by a long shot.
That truck can take 3s that will make it go the advertised 31mph not really but it will try
I’m new to the rc car community can u explain what 3s means and maybe a link for i can buy one for this rc car?
@@eliasmartinez2366 it's the size of the battery bigger battery more power Amazon might have some deals on rc cars for Christmas
My gears went out after about a year. Where can I buy new gears?
I've had mine 2 yrs and it works fine,I guess if I ran into trees and tried to jump trucks and cars it would probably break apart 😁
Awesome video, love the onboard camera view.
Thanks Ben! Working on putting it on my other RC car which goes a bit faster and seeing what kind of video I can get!
Can you show Camera set up?
Is this too much for a 4 year old?

@@FalcoINC Thanks, so much for your advice. You have helped me make my decision. I think I will purchase it!!!
Would you recommend this as an introductory car for 11 year old for Christmas?
I think they could handle it. Its not so fast that it will get out of hand easily and you can crank it down to a slower speed setting to start out. Its also pretty tough for the price. Iv beat it up a lot and haven't broke anything. Comes with easy USB charger.
Ya I got it for Christmas and I love it! I am 10 right now
2 months in and I’ve shattered a wheel and broke a front cvd shaft, what about you?
I just got this, I'm unable to figure out how to install both batteries at once... It just doesn't seem to fit

What camera are you using? I need that.

Are you running both batteries together? Or one at a time?
I have run it both ways. I have noticed no difference in performance (other than run time) between using one battery or two.

Do all rc cars come with the chargers? And battery
I'm getting this now
Right on! Its a neat little truck and it comes with everything you need right out of the box to fire it up and bash.
@@FalcoINC yeah I been looking it up and watching vids you'd say it's worth it?

Just got mine, it is great. great for 160$
@@backs8189 how fast bra? I'm ordering off Amazon
This really looks like Reynoldsburg Skate park. If so that pretty cool. I ride that bike trail a lot.
You would be correct! I also ride my bike on that trail up through the park! Small world huh?
Go Raiders
Yeah I was watching this video and kept saying that's jfk to my gf and she just kept looking at me like yea right
Don't go by how cool it looks, They do not last long they are made out of crap, All these things do is break, figured I bought a lemon so I bought another one and the same thing happened to the other car, you get what you pay for!
How do I mount a camera on it?
Use double sided tape, or it will sound like the one in the video.
I have this and I broke the tire off but it's because we took it apart one time and didnt put the tires on tight enough.
Do you use both batteries or just one while driving it . Whenever I press the power button on the rc it just turn the front lights on and not the light on the side
I believe those are tail lights/running lights, not brake lights.
I'm glad to know that though, a nice feature when running
at night.
yea i got mine yesterday night and those things are bright
Would you say its 50kmh?
Honestly i thought they used to say 40 or 45km as top speed. I'm going to try and dig out the box and see what mine says. If anything I would say I was slightly under the rating on my box when I tested it. Ill go see what mine says as I thought it was 40-45km or something around there
Can you upgrade the motors and battery to make it faster
Does it come with the dual connected?
Yea
I have that rc. It's awesome truck
This shell body fitting a cheetah RC car? Thank you
no
I would like to know how durable this RC is because I've been seeing alot of reviews on it and some people are saying that it does not last that long
I’ve had it for 1.5 years and it is really good. Would recommend
You're lucky if it last a month
@@bobo2952
Good to know!
are replacement parts same as the holsim? im getting it for my 25 year old son who's a roughneck and sure to break stuff.
Yeah some of the parts are. Not sure about all of them. If you go to the legend website they actually sell a lot of spare/replacement parts for the truck at decent prices. One thing to be aware of is the wheel hex nuts. Id recommend making sure you tighten them up before each run. I forget sometimes and have had a few loosen and fly off during driving lol.

Do more videos with the rc truck please like a speed run cuz I love your videos
Will do man, sub for the update when I post it! Im getting a gps unit soon along with a new Arrma Typhon V5 6s. I'll charge both batteries full and get you a speed run!
@@FalcoINC Ok thanks man
the reason they have brushed motors isn't because they're being cheap. brushed motors have more torque.
is it considered hobby grade?
You know I dont think this one is technically? But "Hobby grade" has a lot of interpretation. For the price, its got some nice parts/features though.
The Xinlehong/Blomiky version is at least 40 bucks cheaper and is faster, and is the same truck.
Hello, if we have rc car for you to do a youtube video, may I please ask how can I get in touch with you?
I ordered this to amazon, it didn't arrive. Scam
