UD1601 PRO RC Drift Car

I bought this on a whim one day because one of sales guys said, "We should get these to race around our showroom". LOL. I am a kid at heart and love little R/C toys so him saying that only meant I had too. He sent me the link to the non brushless one that was about $30.00 USD less and as I was about to hit, "Buy" I saw the brushless one and noticed it was 10km/h faster. For the money this is easily one of the coolest and fastest R/C 1/16th scale cars I've ever had. I knew I had to get this one over the non brushless one though, so I did. FYI, this one is way faster. It seems to do what I want better as well since it has the power and torque. I also bought 2 7.4V 1500Mah batteries and wall plugin chargers to spend more time playing and not more time charging when the 1200 included battery dies. I am so happy I bought this car and would highly recommend it to anyone who asked. I would even tell friends and family who didn't ask to get one, just so we could race around on family vacations/get togethers etc.... It's that awesome! I would love a backup since our first 3 races led us both to letting the other sales people try them, but hopefully Cheerwing is cool enough to hook me up! Just sayin... Wink Wink.... Cheerwing... DO IT! Help Me Win Another Bet!!! Please.... LOL. After playing inside and outside for a few hours by now, after running it into all types of objects, going through dirt and mud, flipping it over, my 5 year old stepping on it, there is no sign of it being broken or not running the same way out of the box. It's insanely durable and the plastics used are tough and not easily damageable. Also based on the owner's manual, if something were to break, pretty much every part is replaceable. Super cool and fun are two words to describe it. I get the price point but if it were $20-$30 bucks more, it's still be worth it. I would love to know how to order more parts for it though, like a different shell, more wheels, rims, if it had upgradeable anything I would probably buy it. Cheers Cheerwing. You've done good!

This thing is crazy fast and fun. If you see it on a deal, buy it, if you cant wait and its full price, still buy it. This one is a BLAST. Built well, not cheap or flimsy, this thing took quite a beating. Replacement batteries in this size are fairly cheap as well, get a few cause you are going to want to rocket this thing around all day. Battery life is substantial though regardless.

I’ve had it for about a Week now and I’ve abused this thing, I even flipped it over on the sidewalk on my first go. And nothing has shifted and the car still works great. I love waiting for cars to pass by and tailing them. And the drift tires are another world of fun if you got a big open garage. My only qualm is that the Brushless motor makes the car a little to powerful for its weight/size or maybe I’m just a noob but it definitely puts a smile on my face seeing it fly by.

it glitches when press on trigger but it goes but not good for drifting on mode 1

Decent price for a brushless, however this is a lot slower than other brushless motors the same size. The throttle acceleration has a terrible lag that affects the drift. And you can't use the ESP(gyro) dial more than 1/2 way or it'll go into a dizzying wobble and at 100% gyro the truck can't be driven at all! Parts are easy to get though. Also, careful not to hit the oversized rear spoiler/wing against a wall or the shell with crack where it's screwed in (it barely hit the wall!). So the shell seems to be a little weak. It is fun to drive. If I knew all this before I wouldn't have bought it.

This truck ran fine one battery charge after that it goes out of control it looses signal stays on full throttle this brand has the non brushless one way cheaper way funner damn thing is good enough where in the rain it drives no issues this one brushless is trash it won’t turn or something it turns with out the esp been active

It was loud and not eazy to drift, So I just thought it's because it's my first drift car, But after putting 60k fluid in both diffs. It feels so much smoother and fun. Also when it's open grease the spur gear and Pinion, then all you will hear is the tires drifting. I almost forgot to say how cool the lights look with only the red ring lights on

It’s quick, it drifts awesome! I haven’t tried the second set of drift tires, but on a semi-slick surface it does really awesome! I would buy again around the $100 range.
