- BlackSeaRC presents the first video in a series looking at the new Rastar Bugatti Divo 1:14 scale radio-controlled hypercar. This video includes unboxing, close-up look at all details, functional testing and assessment of good/bad points.
If you are a hypercar fan, then the Bugatti marque has established itself as one of the leaders in the manufacture of extreme performance automobiles. This latest Divo is a limited edition car based on the Chiron platform but with its own unique bodywork. It was designed to give ultimate track performance in a fully road-legal package. Named after French racing driving Albert Divo, who drove for Bugatti in the 1920's and 30's, it incorporates advanced aerodynamic technologies to produce huge amounts of downforce. Consequently, it is quicker around the track than the Chiron but has a reduced top speed.
In future videos in this series, BlackSeaRC will take a look "under the skin" of this RC hypercar. We will find out what components a modern Rastar RC car uses by reverse engineering this Bugatti model. See it here: • Reverse Engineering a ...
For further details on the real Bugatti, see: www.bugatti.co...
Rastar Group is a leading Chinese manufacturer of RC models. This model is officially licensed by Bugatti. For further information about the Rastar brand and their products, see: www.rastar.cn or www.rastar.com
I purchased the Bugatti Divo from here: www.detmir.ru/product/index/id/3363586/
For an affordable RC car, the detail is amazing!
Yes, I agree! This Bugatti is a particularly good example because the real car has a lot of crazy details and they are replicated very nicely in this fully-licensed scale RC car. It also has the opening doors that sometimes Rastar includes but other times they don't provide this feature. This allows the Divo to be used as an excellent display model when you are not driving it.
By the way, if you are interested in F1, I just added the brand new McLaren MCL36 to my RC collection. You can see the detailed review, including test driving, at BlackSeaRC.
Very nice review. I really love the way how this Bugatti Divo looks. The best thing about Rastar RC cars is that you can use them as model car, for a display or decoration as they are very detailed.
That is true, the Rastar cars are detailed enough to make great display models. The downside is that with so much detail you are a little nervous to use them as RC cars in case you damage the bodywork. I always make sure I have a good flat surface in an open space when I run one of these hypercars.
@@BlackSeaRC You really have to be careful when driving one. I have had some close calls, and I even accidentally hit the front of my LaFerrari into a table, but thankfully it didn't do anything major to the front of the car. Only a really small portion, and I mean really small portion, of paint got its colour slightly messed up.
@@BlackSeaRC Anyway, do you have any plans to buy a Rastar RC LaFerrari to review?
@@AbdullahBasit24 The FXX-K Evo is actually based on the LaFerrari so it is quite similar. The latest car I bought that I shall be making a video of soon is the Pagani Huayra.
Nice detail.
Very Good video.
Thank you my friend! It is great when Rastar decides to use opening doors. Of course, some people say what is the point of having opening doors on a RC car but most of the time it will be displayed on the shelf and opening doors really help you to appreciate the interior details. I have some models that have great detailing on the interior but it is almost impossible to see because the doors don't open.
I am in the process of "reverse engineering" this RC car so you will be able to see exactly how one of Rastar's newest RC cars is constructed. That video will be coming later on this channel, BlackSeaRC.
Fireeeeee 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks! To tell you the truth, I was debating for a while whether to get this model or not as I am not a huge fan of the colour scheme but I wanted one of Rastar's newest RC cars because I was planning to strip it down and show what is inside a modern "toy grade" RC car.
Wow! That's a car full of details , also I really love the information that you keep adding, I mean I really learn new things thank you so mush
As you know, I am a fan of scale realism and if a car is officially licensed then it is interesting to check the scale model against the real car on which it is based. I research each car so I know why certain detail are on the RC version and what they are there for. For example, the slots in the wing above the front wheels are there to let out hot air generated by the brakes when working hard around the track. It is also interesting to find out the performance characteristics of each vehicle and I must say, the figures for the Bugatti are incredible. It is an amazing piece of automotive engineering! Glad you learnt some new things!
This model looks very cool! It is one of my favorite Bugatti models so I was excited to see this video.
I bought this Bugatti because I wanted an example of one of Rastar's newest RC cars to reverse engineer. When I look at my line-up of hypercars that includes Bugatti, Lamborghini, Ferrari and McLaren, I think the Divo looks quite understated considering that in full size it is by far the most capable car. By the way, I have also just added a Pagani in 1:14 scale to my RC collection.
@@BlackSeaRC I see. It will be interesting to see what's inside it. I'll check it out. Rastar cars are sometimes random some newer models look better than others. Very cool! I'll be sure to look at your Pagani video thank you!
@@creyetivemedia Yes, the design of Rastar cars can be a bit variable. Certainly looking at the strip down of some other Rastar cars I note that the designs vary quite a lot. Just to compare some other brands, the new Pagani is not actually Rastar but one of their rivals. It'll be interesting to compare quality.
@@BlackSeaRC Oh, Pagani isn't Rastar? Interesting. It's nice to test out different brands.
@@creyetivemedia Not Rastar but Mobicaro. I wanted to see what this brand was like for a while.
Great looking RC Car!
I love the car, all Bugatti's creations are something special, I just don't think the colour scheme shows it off to its full potential...
@@BlackSeaRC The 1:64 scale Matchbox diecast car has the same color scheme, but yes, it could be better!
@@goatrock714 For scale realism, it does match the colour combination that the real car was launched in so I suppose I shouldn't complain!
Very nice video :)
I received the Ford Mustang from Rastar for the wedding of my work colleagues. The look of the vehicles is great, but the technology doesn't really convince me :)
Thanks for watching and commenting. Rastar is one of the better brands for this kind of product because the models are licensed by the real manufacturers and because they have a high level of detail and scale realism. However, you can't get away from the fact that this is a "toy grade" product. It uses basic non-proportional controls and therefore its performance and drivability is compromised. For the price it makes a great display model and an occasional RC car but for regular RC use you need to spend a little more and you can get something much better.
I think you will like my newest purchase much more. It is the AT4V pick-up truck kit by Cross-RC. This is a really nice 1:10 scale crawler and makes an interesting alternative to the Traxxas TRX-4 and Axial SCX10. For a first look at this brand new kit, see the "1:10 Scale" playlist on my channel, BlackSeaRC. Kit build, detailed review and testing videos to follow...
You are very lucky bro
Thanks, yes, I am very lucky to have such a nice RC vehicle collection!
Hi guys
Hello there! If you liked this Bugatti RC car, I also have a variety of other models such as Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren, Pagani, Porsche, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Hummer, Range Rover, Bentley, etc. Check out my channel homepage here: th-cam.com/users/BlackSeaRC
Just wow...cool car..man...waiting fir on road test.video..😊👍
The Divo is certainly a crazy and eccentric hypercar! I'm going to be using this model for my "reverse engineering" project. I've always wondered what is under the body of a Rastar RC car and how it works so I'm going to be taking the body off and disassembling everything. I want to see how the steering works, what the suspension is like, what gearing and motor they use and what electronics are fitted. Should be interesting! I am intrigued how easy it would be to upgrade this car. It is not performing to scale hypercar standards in the factory configuration! 236mph @ 1:14 scale should be almost 17mph but actually the top speed of this model is closer to 5mph...
@@BlackSeaRC good luck,man..👍
@@SureshKumar-ow2ji I have already removed the body and was surprised how easy it was. Everything is nicely and simply arranged on the chassis and the wiring can be unplugged easily. You'll be able to see all the details in the follow-up video.
@@SureshKumar-ow2ji The "reverse engineering" video of the Bugatti Divo is just published. Here you will be able to see exactly how a modern Rastar RC car is designed and built. Actually, when you take it apart you start to appreciate how much effort went into making it. Anyway, I hope it will be interesting for you!
@@BlackSeaRC let me watch it now...buddy.
I forgot if this car was made for public consumption or it was just a prototype and I forgot to have more than the Chiron and horsepower?
This car was made in a limited production run of 40 units and is fully road legal. It was only available to existing Bugatti customers though. The final car was built recently in July 2021. The Divo is based on the platform of the Chiron but it has its own unique bodywork. Both cars have the same power output (1500PS) but the Divo has a restricted top speed (Divo 236mph, Chiron 261mph). This is because the Divo is designed with high downforce aerodynamics and is faster around the track whereas the Chiron is more about straight-line speed.
@@BlackSeaRC don't forget about the one that they made that the 305 I think they boosted up the horsepower on that one too and lengthen the body.
That was the Chiron Super Sport 300+. The statistics on that car make some other hypercars look tame!
Silver one is the best looking I like that color the most and then the bronzy orange.
Bugatti has got to be the premier name in hypercars and it deserves to stand out above Ferrari, Lamborghini or McLaren. The performance figures are in another class. But somehow, when my hypercar collection is arranged together, the Bugatti is the most innocent looking of the group. I really like the colour of the final Divo produced last month. It was the famous Bugatti blue colour and looked superb!
One thing which makes me sad is that most of these very detailed RC cars are usually bought by the parents of kids, and many of the kids don't notice, or care to notice the immense details of these RC cars. And most of the parents also don't care to see what the car model is based off. I got my Rastar RC car as a gift by a relative, and my parents didn't even care to see how detailed it is. And my grandmother and one of the uncle only bothered saying that these things are only for small kids (probably around 3 years to 9 years old).
I know quite a few people who collect Rastar RC cars and they are professional business people who have a love of vehicles and engineering. They appreciate all the details that go into these models. Rastar obviously understands this or else they wouldn't pay such attention to the details. Plus, their models are officially licensed by the original vehicle manufacturers. Some of the badges and logos are almost too small to see. For example, did you notice the "Divo" script on the fuel caps?
@@BlackSeaRC Oh, no! And I'm so glad to be proved wrong that these cars are bought by some professional business people too!
@@AbdullahBasit24 You should see some of the RC vehicles that are available at the top end of the market. There are some costing over EUR 10,000 and they are miniature engineering marvels!
@@BlackSeaRC I'm so stunned to know that. Sadly, there is not a big market of model cars and RC cars in my country. You can buy Kinsmart model cars, and some other well-made model cars from here but generally RC cars sold here are usually those cheap Chinese knock off ones. I was lucky get mine as a gift from my aunt, as she travelled from USA to my country.
@@AbdullahBasit24 Where are you located my friend?
do you know how fast this model goes? Also do all 1:14 rastar model have the same speed and agility? Thank you
I haven't measured the top speed myself and Rastar doesn't publish the top speed in its technical data. However, I have seen the speed quoted as just over 5mph (8kph) and during testing they do not feel particularly fast so that is probably correct. All the cars I have drive in a similar manner and demonstrate a comparable level of performance. The driveline arrangement is also very similar in each model so whether you get a supercar or a SUV, you are still getting just the same rear drive set-up. The emphasis in these models is scale realism and great detailing rather than performance.
@@BlackSeaRC Thank you for the detailed explanation; hello to you from he other side of the Black Sea :)
@@Null779 Merhaba Arhan, sanırım Türkiye'densin? İzlemenize sevindim. Bugatti'yi beğendiyseniz, lütfen Ferrari, Lamborghini ve McLaren ile videoları da kontrol edin.
unfortunately mine didn't have those france colors on it
There was a separate little decal sheet with the French flags inside a bag along with the instructions. This was taped to the underside of the inner packaging. It is strange that you didn't get that. Perhaps if you contact Rastar, they will send you the decals in the post.
I didn't recall that the driver seat was a different color than the passenger seat.
Yes, to quote Bugatti, "The distinctive 'Divo Racing Blue' is also used as an Alcantara leather tone in the interior, where it plays a special role by providing an optical split in the interior surfaces. This colour is used almost throughout the driver’s section while it only provides selected accents in the darker passenger’s section".
I hope your GPS it and I wonder if they're going to make the SF 90 stradalli model from them that that over that over a thousand horsepower car and and if they're going to make a rimmac.
This model didn't feel fast when I tested it. I believe the top speed is only around 5mph. That is a top speed of only 70mph when scaled 14 times. For 236mph on the real car, the 1:14 scale model should do around 17mph to be realistic.
As for new Rastar models, I see they have presented a new Lamborghini Huracan STO in 1:14 and 1:24 scale for launch later this year. I would like to see a Koenigsegg Jesko RC model.
Quick question I’m thinking of buying it how many km an hr would this go or meters per second something like that thanks that would be really helpful
The top speed is not particularly fast, around 5mph or 8kph. If you look at my video featuring the Rastar Ferrari 599 GTO, you will see it operating outside. This is the sort of speed you can expect from all Rastar 1:14 scale RC cars. Also, if you are interested in seeing how this Buggati Divo is constructed and what is inside, I make a "reverse engineering" video where I show what is under the body. See the "1:14 Scale" playlist for this and other Rastar videos.
I personally think they need to up their game and make digital proportion cars and get into the hobby room and take these cars that they get licensed for and make them all wheel drive the ones that are all wheel drive they need to up the game. Lol
I think there is a market for a fully proportional RC car with a detailed licensed body like those produced by Rastar. That type of transmitter and the associated electronics wouldn't even cost substantially more. Add to that a modern rechargeable battery with USB charger and you have a much more attractive product. With regard to the chassis I would also improve the suspension. Steering would already be vastly improved with a proper mini servo and proportional control.
Can you do drifts with it?
Not really, no. The tyres supplied offer quite a lot of grip. If you find a shiny floor surface such as wood laminate you can get it to slide a little but it doesn't have the power to make a continuous drift, more of a 360 degree spin.
@@BlackSeaRC understood, thank u!
How long did u wait for It to connect to the remote? Bc I bought one and it took a rlly rlly long time to connect to it I’ve nvr seen it connect b4 bc of the wait-
Hello there, thanks for visiting channel BlackSeaRC. With these Rastar products, I usually put new batteries in both the handset and the car, switch on the car and the controller should work right away. As the handset doesn't have an on/off switch, you should put batteries in there first before trying to switch on the car. I have never had any sort of delay and these RC models don't have a system to "bind" the transmitter to the receiver like a "hobby grade" RC system would have. If it doesn't work for you, make sure you have new batteries in the handset before turning on the car.
It's been a while since I seen you do a video hey have you watched all my recent ones I fighter buggy I rex memorial edition is done I'd like to paint the guys eyes in though had some setbacks with my grasshopper two black edition.
I normally plan my videos 2 or 3 models ahead but in the last few months I have really had problems with the delivery of products that I ordered. As you know I had ordered the Tamiya Grasshopper II Black Edition at the beginning of 2021 and it was in my schedule of videos for June/July time. Even before this order was cancelled, I had ordered other products but they are all still "en route" from China. One of my new Kyosho RC trucks has been on the way for 6 weeks now and that was shipped by airmail! On top of all that we had a massive storm that knocked out our power for nearly a whole month and that totally messed up my schedule!
I keep checking your channel and will take another look to see what you've been up to with your new models.
@@BlackSeaRC thanks.
Came to see it drive and now me sad
Hello Jason, thanks for leaving your comment. You make a good point and it is something I have debated many times before. My issue is that I have reviewed quite a few Rastar RC cars and lots of my viewers have seen them all. In reality, the way the cars operate is very similar, the handsets are similar and the only real difference is the way the cars look. Therefore, a lot of people just want to see the car and the details specific to it. For this Bugatti Divo model I wanted to do something slightly different and I decided that this would be my "reverse engineering" project car. In the next video in this series, I will show what is "under the skin" of the newest Rastar RC cars by disassembling it and showing how it works. I appreciate you leaving your feedback and I plan to make a special test driving video showing how the Rastar RC supercars perform in a future video. Best wishes from BlackSeaRC!
@@BlackSeaRC thanks for the reply just to add on what u where saying so all the rascar rcs perform the same apart from aerodynamics making the difference in speed and cornering?
@@BlackSeaRC if thats the case then i see why 😊 btw have a great day and thanks for a genuine reply i respect that
@@jasonburns2013 Hello again Jason. In my experience, the Rastar RC models tend to be designed with a greater emphasis on scale realism rather than ultimate performance. The company realises that a lot of their customers buy the products because they look great and they want to use them as display models as well as RC cars. Of course, when they have so much detail they can be easily damaged and I suspect that most people use them carefully. Whether you get a supercar or an SUV, the drivelines are similar and at the speed they operate at, the aerodynamics and weight variances will make a negligible difference to the performance. Consider that the top speed is less than 10kph and the steering and suspension is very basic. Yes, there are people who would like greater performance and it is possible to modify these vehicles with hobby grade electronics to give fully proportional control and greater speed. However, the effort and expense to do this should not be underestimated.
@@jasonburns2013 I am going to try to make a running video soon. I will probably use the Lamborghini Aventador model I have as the Bugatti is currently disassembled. This will give you an idea of the performance and driving characteristics. Thanks for writing again, I appreciate that you took the time to do that. By the way, I am currently making a video of the Pagani Huayra by Mobicaro (MZ Model) in 1:14 scale and I shall be including test driving in that video if you are interested. It will be coming to this channel soon so hopefully I will see you here again.
The light is a huuge con
Hi Jahan, what do you mean about the lights? That they shine as a circle rather than in the correct shape of the headlight? Obviously, a single LED bulb is cheap to install and on most cars this matches with the shape of the real light much better than on this Bugatti. This happens at the rear as well sometimes. For example, the McLaren cars often have interesting rear lights but Rastar always uses single bulbs. Perhaps they could use a clear plastic lense that better spreads the light.
@@BlackSeaRC yeah, that is what i mean
@@riskysway2542 I think the Divo deserves something a little bit extra special as it is a true hypercar! As for me, I would like Rastar to consider implementing fully proportional controls on their RC cars. Some rival manufacturers are starting to include this on models in this price range or less.
Hi, may u review any 1:24 model from rastar?
Hello there, I have considered buying a Rastar RC car in the smaller 1:24 scale just to check its capabilities. I think I will look to see what interesting models are available at the moment. Thanks for the suggestion!
If you are interested, I just reviewed a 1:24 scale RC model of the Ford F-350 Super Duty pick-up truck. It is not a Rastar product but is the Hoffmann brand. I also hope to add some Rastar 1:24 scale products to the BlackSeaRC collection in the future.
For your reference, I shall be reviewing the Rastar Bentley Continental GT Speed in 1:24 scale soon.
does the lights word on the front
Yes, it has white LED lights at the front and red at the rear. These only operate when pressing either forward or reverse on the handset (i.e. they are not on all the time).
@@BlackSeaRC thx
@@asadkamal3313 No problem. I must say that it is nice to have lights but I would prefer it if the front and rear lights came on at the same time.

The Divo hypercar is based on the Chiron platform but has unique bodywork. The Chiron was the successor to the Veyron. Both the Chiron and Divo were named after successful racing drivers. Only 40 units of the Divo were produced between 2019 and 2021.
HOW MUCH???
I bought the Divo for 2029 RUB (approximately 20 GBP / 23.5 EUR / 27.5 USD) but this was a discounted price. Standard price is 3999 RUB but on these cars I virtually never pay full price as there are always offers of some kind if you wait a little bit.

Bugatti has some unbelievable cars but the Chiron Super Sport 300+ is just an amazing piece of automotive engineering. When you look at the specifications, the numbers associated with Bugatti products put other hypercars to shame.

The Bugatti Divo is an incredible car and you get a lot of detail in the scale model. That makes it much more interesting than some other supercars and hypercars. Hopefully Rastar will also make a model of the Bolide in the future!
