WLtoys 284010 RC Car

VERY FUN! Very fast car that definitely got me into the RC hobby. Now I am buying pieces left and right to expand my lineup.

It's a lot faster than I expected. I did put a larger Mah. battery on it for more drive time. It's been a lot of fun .I was under the impression that it would have come with a built-in camera but otherwise no complaints. Lots of fun

One pack in I notice it has a very tight driveline not sure if that’s normal or not. It is a bit fast for inside my home but it’s so much fun in a small package. Motor got a bit hot for my liking but that may be due to the binding driveline. Instructions are not very helpful. All in all very fun, fast for its size and if you are on the fence about a mini racer for indoors this is a great buy for the price.

Great little car for the money. Much more portable than my 1/10 scales and I can actually use this inside as well

Fast, fun little car. Easy to maintain, handles well. The radio leaves a lot to be desired. The first half of the trigger pull is deadband and I don't know how to recalibrate it. Otherwise it's perfect.

Came in good condition, I would recommend for anyone who is getting this to work on the internals like the diffs and stuff. Everything is so tight that the motor gets hot quick and can burn it. Very easy to do if you look it up on YouTube. Other than that you can also slap a 1410 brushless motor and it’d plug and play with the stock gears that it comes with.

For the price paid, this little guy is awesome. It’s quick, AWD, has lights, and drifts great on the right surface. (No gyro needed). I drive mine around in my family room and kitchen which has LVP flooring. It’s almost a perfect surface for easy drifting. Yet the car also hooks up when you want it to. Check out the comparison pic to my Mini-Z Sauber-Mercedes. Though not as refined as the Mini-Z (Mini-Z is smoother, and just better overall hobby-grade quality), this WLToys car is a bit quicker. For the price and for its performance, this WLToys car is a bargain. My only gripe so far is the tiny body clip pins. They are cumbersome in my large fingers. That’s being picky, though. The transmitter feels good in your hand. It’s not the best looking transmitter, but it works perfectly fine. I’m very happy with my purchase.

The wheels don't spin if they are attached to the car. I got the car and it was fine. All the sudden the left rear locked up. Took the wheel off, its fine. Wheel back on its jammed. I took the diff apart and made sure it was good. It is. I discovered that unless you leave the wheel nut so loose the wheels wobble they won't spin. Both passenger side wheels have this issue. So I ran wobbly. It works until the nuts tighten themselves down the wheels stop spinning. I even put brand new high quality lock nuts on and same issue. I guess wltoys is just bad at small scale. I suppose if I want a quality 1/28 drift car I'll have to pony up the 199 for a mini z.
