The waterproof brushless engine is such a nice upgrade. Not only does the engine lasts longer but this thing is fast. I raced the regular truck and the brushless one side by side and this new truck has a lot more speed than his older brother. Looking forward to take it on a camping trip and run that thing in the mud to see how it handles.
It’s nice that you can control the speed and sensitivity of the remote so that a kid can also play with it without crashing it constantly against the wall or an obstacle. But even when it happens, I am not too worried because it feels pretty solid and has a nice rubber front bumper that can absorb the shocks.
The box included an extra battery which gives you about 20 min of extra running time which is nice. Changing the battery is fairly fast and simple. It also comes with another top cover, which is more for look if you want to change color as those plastic tops are fairly flexible and chances that they break are pretty slim (knocking on wood as I have not had that happened to me yet).
The tires are soft which is great because you can make the truck jump and it will always have a soft landing. The only cons with having soft tires is that they will wear out very fast on concrete if you spin the truck constantly or go full speed all the time, but that is expected of all soft tires, regardless of the brand, even on my high end RC cars. I would say that out of the box, this RC is best for grass, sand and off road. Super fun on concrete but be ready to replace the tires every now and then.
This is my second DeerC truck and I am quite satisfied with it, it is a good value for the components it comes with, such as the brushless engine and the oiled filled shocks.
I am hoping they will come out with a 1:10 scale brushless version of this truck soon. I would be all over that.
