Excellent first impression
Right out of the box, the car appears to be an excellent value. It includes everything needed, even the AA batteries for the transmitter. In addition to being ready to run, the car comes equipped with bearings, oil filled dampers and adjustable turnbuckles. My example arrived in good condition and ran well out of the box. The front and rear body pins are tight and can be difficult to install, but this is overshadowed by all of the features. While smaller than a traditional 1/10 scale buggy, it should still provide a lot fun for the price. The adjustable throttle settings also make this an excellent choice for children. Highly recommended for children and adults alike.

Great fun, awesome price and good aftermarket support/upgrades available.
First "hobby" grade RC purchase, just getting into the hobby. It's not too fast but with a bigger battery and brushless upgrade can go 30+. Great little car, tons of fun and looks fantastic. Awesome starter car for someone just getting into the hobby or vintage collector looking for something cool looking and fun to drive. Can't wait to upgrade this thing!

Poor steering as a result of bad build quality
Pros -Incredible styling.Cons -The servo centering for steering was installed so far off that my steering trim has to be turned 90% away from center. Once I feel like I finally narrowed down the right trim setting, the slop in the steering system just sends it off-course. It has very sloppy steering.The steering response is so twitchy for sidewalk/driveway/street that the steering rate has to be turned down - Without turning down the rate, at speed, it just spins out with the slightest turn of the wheel.I'm OK with turning down the rate, but remember, my trim is turned 90% away from center. Now, that I've set up trim and rate, my buggy will turn OK one direction but will barely turn the other direction at all.I can't enjoy playing with this buggy at all until I shell out money for better tools to take it apart. I regret buying it and I should've returned this while I had the chance.

Awesome car, lackluster build quality.
Out of the box the zip ties that hold the car in were cut, despite the box being "sealed". A bit odd, but everything seemed to be in order.Soldered on some deans and installed a charged pack and immediately noticed the rear wheels were entirely too tight, causing a significant amount of drag. Upon trying to investigate this I also found the rear wheels practically welded onto the roll pins. Gently tapping the axle to dislodge it from the wheel resulted in a destroyed carrier bearing. I was extremely frustrated and the car hadn't even touched the ground yet.After replacing the butchered bearing and checking the rest of the car over (and topping up the leaky shocks) I had a free spinning transmission, except for the pinion gear was a bad casting and had a visible amount of runout and change in the gear lash against the spur gear. I was ready to box it up and send it back, but other reviews noted the build quality was lacking so I figured I'd fix what I had.Boy am I glad I did! This car is phenomenal! I have a basic offroad carpet track in my backyard and this thing is amazing. It even outperforms my Mini-T 2.0, which I find hilarious given this is a scaled down version of an antique chassis and the Mini-T is the opposite. I can say at least on a semi prepared surface (outdoor carpet) this thing has a TON of steering as well as forward bite. It corners great, has plenty of speed (for the size) and flies really cleanly through the air. With 15wt oil in the shocks it's very compliant without bottoming out over jumps.I love this little car. If you can be patient with the somewhat sloppy build, you'll have possibly the best Mini out there.

Great little buggy
Speed is a little slow stock but plan to add brushless. Good build quality. Reminds me of my old racing buggy from years ago so a good value to me.

Tons of mini basher fun!!
I have been out of RC for many years and wanted something small and not super expensive to have fun with in the yard and such and was excited to find this at half off. I bought one right away as when I raced indoors I ran a losi xxx-s and loved it.It arrived secured and with no damage. Battery charged up in about an hour and then off to rip!!With a full charge it ran around 15-20 minutes at roughly ful speed minus turns. I am very happy with how responsive it is and how much fun it is to slide around in the dirt!! It goes around 15-16mph which is fast enough for my needs right now. I know you can get brushless systems and drop em in easy enough but for backyard bashes and sliding in dirt stock is gtg in my opinion. It'll bottom out in tall grass but to be expected with the low clearance and design meant for dirt🤙I would buy another without hesitation!
