I got 2 of those now..one for my son (3years old) and one for me 😄 and one more is on its way for my wife..when she saw us having so much fun with those things, she wanted one for herself😄
It's 2.4GHz so it can run multiple cars at the same time as long as you turn them on one at a time. I can't confirm if 12 cars will work simultaneously though. Theoretically, they should.
can i use two of these at the same time? i wanna buy two for my kids, we have two rc helicopters and if we use it at the same time bouth helicopters connect to one controller
Normally yes, you can use 2 at the same time. I only got 1 so I can't test if that works but 2.4GHz on cars will work when you switch them on one at a time.
@@antoniofrance8 The original 100 or 150mah already fits snugly in there so I don't know if a bigger one will fit. You can still strap it on the car though.
I just received mine today... Very powerful motor. But the turning radius is not even. Left turn is super understeer. Right turn is perfect. But this car cannot go on straight line. So frustrating.
There's a trim you can adjust under the car to make it go straight.. as straight as it could. Still, it will spin out of the surface doesn't have much grip
@@WickramathungaSuvindu-zh6cx Unfortunately, it can't do backflip. It's pretty good and durable for 12YO. I'm not sure how precise the steering you need to be but this one doesn't have a precise steering. A kid can play for fun but not for learning how to drive RC properly.
I just got another version of this car, and I'm actually having a lot of fun making a little racetrack with some jumps for it. Now I'm thinking of getting a fully proportional micro car, with a €65 budget for the car and upgrades, would you reccomend the sinohobby tr q2 or the wltoys k989 and what upgrades would you reccomend with them? (or something completely different?)
If you want a dedicated RWD touring racer then Q2 is a better choice because it's the closest thing to a Mini-Z RWD. Otherwise if you want it to do both touring and drifting then K989 is a better choice. The mods I would suggest. Q2 - bearing upgrade, Mini-Z main oil damper, good tyres according to the track surface. For normal room floor I suggest foam tyres. K989 - fix the car and stock pinion and diff for spares, that's pretty much it. You can also upgrade the radio. If you don't want to change the whole board then WLtoys P33 radio is a good choice. Upgrading the tyres to foam tyres also help a lot. Don't sink too much money into the chassis like aluminium upgrade. It's not worth it. Keep the money to upgrade it to a better chassis. If you want to upgrade, do the electronics and consumables like radio, ESC, motor, servo, wheels, tyres and differential because you can move them to a better car later on.
@@BeaversHobby Thanks for the quick response! I mostly just want to have a lot of fun racing around my room mainly th-cam.com/video/2menl0LczSk/w-d-xo.html This is one lap of the course i set up for now, i think im going for the k989, doesnt it need bearings?
The wheelbase is 75mm. It's a tad shorter than Mini 4WD but it'll work. Most Mini 4WD bodies are kind of flexible with that. You'll have to fashion your own body mounting system though.
@@BeaversHobby I've decided to cut the chassis in half and fuse the front part with a mini 4wd chassis and convert that into RC like others have done instead of just putting a mini 4wd body on. It'll look more 'pure'. The only thing is to get those front wheels off. Do you think it's possible?
@@BeaversHobby Hey Beaver, i've managed to convert my mini4wd into rc using this as the donor. The steering is poor as expected but at least the proportional throttle makes it driveable. I've put on one oneway wheels and cornering is much smoother and tighter. To stop, i just relase the throttle and turn. It stops like a skater. Backwards.so possible but slow. Thanks for all the info.
You'll need to charge battery before use. Lithium batteries are always shipped with half charge to prolong the battery life while sitting on the shelf.
@@BeaversHobby Thank you. Sadly I charged one of the batteries up fully and put it in the car but it did not run so I will have to send it back after waiting well over its due arrival date due to the covid. All up I waited for 6 to 7 weeks for it. No dought I'll have to wait that now before I can get a refund. I can't wait to see the end of this stinking covid.
@@Ramon-bd1ii The steering mechanism has a hole that the sand can get in and stop it from working. You can keep opening it up to empty out the sand but it's quite a bother.
Hi Beaver, have you seen Xotek 1/32 rc? They are rwd rc cars with side rollers that are designed to run on mini 4wd tracks as well. Just wondering if you would consider doing a review on that later.
Yes, they have contacted me a while back. Unfortunately they are based in the US and shipping is a bit difficult, not to mention I don't have a Mini 4WD track with me at the moment so I didn't get it. Also $79.99 is a bit steep.
Somehow these cheap cars are much more durable than the expensive ones too. Less complexity means more durability. If I crashed into things with my GLD or even Q7 the repair cost will be more than a whole Rapid Monster as well.
@@BeaversHobby I laugh so hard at those guys at the track with expensive brushless setups that wreck anything metal of plastic on soft cushioning PP track. Kinetic energy increases so fast
hey buddy! just finished your budget build touring car playlist. im learning a lot and i want to thank you. BTW i have a ticket to buy a cyber truck. I would be over the moon if some how you can build a "cyber truck" I myself tried building one after seeing flite test build one. now i want one that can drift. that would be so cool.
If you want it to be based on this Rapid Monster chassis then I'm afraid it's not possible. It's too imprecise and steering is not enough for drifting. However cybertyruck is just a collection of different basic shape panels so I think you can replicate the body using plastic sheets and put it on WLtoys K969/K989 for drifting.
@@BeaversHobby oh no! i would actually personally I would go "no budget build" for a drift cyber truck.. lol I would like to have one built in time for the cyber truck meets that's bound to happen. what better way to connect with strangers with a spectacle of delight.

Surprising little car could be fun to use as a chassis for somthing
Yes
Great potential for putting mini4wd bodies on!
I took the mother board out of my 1/16 scale supra and rigged it up and got it to fit in this little 1/32
Thank You. Mine is on it's way.
22km/h is for "High speed". Do you test for "Low speed" km/h ?
Hello. My son and his friends want to race them. Do you think I can race 12 of these cars at the same time with no interference? Thank you
It's 2.4GHz so it can run multiple cars at the same time as long as you turn them on one at a time. I can't confirm if 12 cars will work simultaneously though. Theoretically, they should.
I have one of these, my remote and the cart do not pair, the light keeps blinking, do you know how to synchronize?
As far as I remember this one is autobind so you just turn the car on then turn the transmitter on, move the steering or throttle and it should bind.
Are is that water proof
No, it's not.

What is the name of the battery connector? I'd like to buy some spares. Its a great little car.
It should be JST but I'm not sure which size it is. All the batteries in this size usually have the same connector though,
How can you open the canopy?
You can pull it straight up. On the body pole there're 2 small bumps that stop the body from coming off so you can pull the body out pretty easily.

It's relatively fast. I mean it can jump off a ramp and doesn't fall flat immediately but it needs a long run up to do that.

How to open the body pls answer
Pull the body up. There's a small plastic stopper at the end of each pole so you'll have to use a bit of force to pull it out.

Yes, the rubber is soft. The height from the floor is around 1cm (if I remember correctly, I don't have the car anymore).
Will the tamiya 4wd motors fit?
Unfortunately, no. It uses the small motor like the one on micro drone/micro whoop.

Hey this is a really good rc car i actually have one but is it a hobby grade rc car?
No, it's not. There are no spare available and the electronics are simple.
Hello Beaver, so it's been a year since you uploaded this video, how's the toy rc doing, has it broken yet ?
I haven't played it much since but it's still in tact.

No, it doesn't.
