    The center driveshaft on the CF is different than the metal. CF is a split 2 piece, where as the metal is a one piece design. I think that could affect the potential rubbing of the driveshaft.

      125 MPH top speed. We have been given permission to run at the drag racing track so hopefully we can get near that. I am a little sceptical but even 160-180 for 299 usd isn't a bad deal.

    I am old enough to remember associated RC 1/12 scale and Pro 10 from early 1980 . This thing has lots of unnecessary extra scale equipment. Not sure why it has a spare tire, tail lights etc etc . To my eyes it’s confused because it claims a high top speed but also tries to look scale.

    • @JohnRobinsonRC
      @JohnRobinsonRC  Před rokem

      Hi there and I see your point. However I think what they have done is made it look good for those that want that. And for those wanting speed runs then they can remove the unnecessary weight if they like. So catering for both basically. 😊👌 Speed ran it today on a drag strip and it wasn't slow even with the spare wheel. 😊😊

In addition, this car has a serious signal loss problem. I am writing to the support. technician of this garbage brand, and until today they have been giving me my time, they say that the missing screw is too small to send it, anyone who buys this car forgets to be able to return it is impossible, they brag that they have good technical support and it is a garbage, just like the customer treatment, I do not recommend products from this brand, it is a waste of money
