Aetheria 4WD RC Drift Car, ESP Gyro, LED Headlights, 1:32 High Speed Racing RC Vehicle Gifts for Adults Christmas KM3299 - Red

I’m into RC cars but sometimes the weather doesn’t agree. This car is fun on the kitchen floor and my cats have a blast chasing it. It even survives my large cat picking it up with his mouth and throwing it, and me crashing it into the barstools at full speed. I love the lights too.

This is my second of these, I love the first one. This one however has a faulty steering servo and is rendered useless. Difficulty contacting seller..

I saw these little cars on a YouTube video and was so happy to see they were available on Amazon! It was a little more expensive than I was expecting, at almost $50. But it is a LOT of fun and the car looks amazing! The paint job on these things is crazy good quality. Super easy to drive and the learning curve on getting it to drift is pretty low. I had it going around a makeshift track in no time. It comes with two sets of tires. One for drifting and one for regular racing. You will need a pretty slick surface to race on if you don't want the tires to wear out quickly. I haven't figured out where to get replacement tires yet, but I still have some meat on mine, so I don't need a new set just yet.

With only one battery in this car, I was a bit concerned about run time, but quickly found it runs quite a while on one charge. I have already run it 15-20 min two different times and probably could've run up to 30 min. It does charge quickly enough to use it again within a couple of hours. It's an odd 3 cell flat battery config and I'm not sure if I can find more, but I'm sure they are out there even though it's not a common battery. Funny thing about this car is that it would land upright and keep running when it rolls over. Most likely it is the weight of the cells being low to the ground and weighted enough to land upright about 9 out of 10 times it rolls. It looks like a cross between a mustang and challenger, making for a beautiful red body design. The four wheel drive helps when going over small obstacles as well as drifting. It grips the road and can make nice tight turns with fast straightaway power. Gyro seems to keep the car steady and balanced while running. The car drives well on asphalt, concrete, and many other surfaces, but I'd keep it out of grass and weeds to avoid problems. Variable power allows me to use it as a teaching tool for beginners and intermediate drivers. It's so much fun to run this car and I'm sure it will last a while. I would recommend this highly for intermediate drivers, but can be turned down in the controller for beginners. It's just plain fun, and ready out of the box after putting batteries in the controller.
