Radio Controlled 1/10 Scale R/C Drift Car – Flyingfish R/C EP-16

Radio Controlled 1/10 Scale R/C Drift Car – Flyingfish Review 

 Buy this car, buy it now!, it truly is that good and i would point anyone in the direction of this if they asked me which to buy!

•    Speed
5/5
Really good speed with this car as you'd probably expect if your expecting to be going sideways, according to the internet it has a top speed of 32KM/H to scale, very very fast!

•    Handling
 4/5
As this car is designed to be all about the handling, the sideways drifting action you'd expect really good handling from it and it certainly delivers, easy to get sideways, great turning circle, although it can be abit difficult to control if your not used to it, or you get the reasonably difficult settings wrong.

•    Looks
3/5
This car is more about performance than looks, although you can get alot of different styled plastic moulded bodies to slot right on top with different colours, styles, race cars, trucks, spoiler or no spoiler or even off-roader, under the body it is a much better situation with very real looking chrome alloy wheels, life like suspension, dampers etc etc.

•    Price
4/5
You won't be getting this car cheap, but it is well worth it, alot of fun to just drive, but then you can also spend hour upon hour replacing the various bits, modding everything and anything to create your very own customised high performance RC car exactly how you want it, you'd have to get a real car to get anything better in that department.

•    Control Range
3/5
with the size of the aerial in the controller you'd expect to get a control range over miles, now this may just be me as I've not seen any complaints from anyone else but the range i got was fairly standard but it was still enough for plenty of fun.

•    Battery Usage
5/5
a built in 7.2V battery with a plug in charger, and 6 AA batteries in the controller, i don't think I've had anything that last as long as this, I've had a good hour or 2 none stop high energy driving and drifting before it even started to waiver in extremely hot weather, amazing.

•    Controller
4/5
Uses 6 AA batteries in the base, very big manly feeling controller that full of gadgets, you can adjust the positioning of the 'trigger', invert the forward and backwards motion and the steering if you'd prefer, you can even adjust the wheel angle of your car if it's pulling to 1 side, or you for whatever reason want to aim a certain direction, and the same with the forwards and backwards direction.

I am in love with this car, it is truly amazing the amount of gizmo's you can get, chop and change, the high speed, the amazing drifting, decent enough looks, extra cushioned front end just in-case you crash, and at a reasonable enough price, I'd give it a 5 out of 5 and recommend it to the slightly older from about 15 upwards as it does require quite abit of control and ability but hardcore racers/drifters will love it.

Radio Controlled Licenced 1:18 BMW X5 Sports

BMW X5 Review

the BMW is an excellent car for a cheap price, decent looks nice handling great RC car



•    Speed
3/5

Nothing special about the speed of this car, but it’s not going to disappoint either but plenty of fun still enough speed to get some sideways action if your on the right terrain and has some reasonable off-road abilities.
•    Handling
 4/5

Brilliant handling with this car much like the previous Nissan your not going to be doing hardcore drifting or high speeds but you can handle your car more than adequately for pretty much anything you might want to do. 
•    Looks
 4/5

Great looking car, it doesn’t have masses of detail on it but certainly looks like a very beautiful scale model of the BMW such as the iconic front grill, you’re also going to be getting fully working front and rear lights alloy style wheels.
•    Price
 4/5

Really good price for this car you’d struggle find something this good for cheaper, low priced, good car what more could you want!?

•    Control Range
 3/5

No real complaints in this section, but nothing to write home about either, decent enough range and control as you’d expect with a car of this style of car.

•    Battery Usage
 3/5

As with all of our tests we were using the same very cheap batteries in this case 4 AA batteries in the car and 1 9V in the controller, after about an hours time the performance and ability of the car did distinguish, but after a short rest it did work fine again for a while, overall reasonable enough use of the batteries.
•    Controller
4/5

Uses 1 9V battery Good forward and reverse motion through one finger, reasonable looks and a simple easy turning mechanism, styled like a car wheel with soft tire grip nicely weighted, not to sharp and not to stiff.  Very nice moulded grip for ease and comfort, Overall a decent controller.

The BMW X5 is a very good car, decent looks, great drive, a lot of fun I would say it’s more for the younger kinds below the age of about 12/13 to enjoy fully but for the cheap price anyone else would still be able to have a lot of fun with it, all in all I’d give it a 4 out of 5.

Radio Controlled 1:14 LICENSED NISSAN 350Z Review

R.C Nissan 350Z Review

Now to start off the blog we've got a rather tasty Nissan 350Z Licensed car to review, had quite a bit of fun with this check out the review below....


•    Speed
3/5
You’re not going to be winning races against the best cars with this but it’s not exactly crawling along, a fine speed for the type of car that it is, about the speed of an adults pretty fast walking pace.

•    Handling
 4/5
Brilliant handling with this car and does exactly what you’d expect, although you won’t be skidding around corners sideways it is a very realistic car like driving experience, just with a remote there’s also the ability to adjust the angle of the car underneath if you find it pulling to one side, or your racing on an oval track.

•    Looks
 5/5
superb looking car with amazing detail, including chromed double exhaust at the rear, fully functioning stylish head and rear lights, full detail interior right down to the gearstick and CD player, realistic spoiler, great alloy style wheels with coloured brake callipers, detailed manufacturer and model logos right down to “Nissan” on the wheel nuts. Overall a beautiful remote control car.

•    Price
2.5/5
For my likings this car is a bit overpriced for the car that your getting, but I’m a pretty cheap guy, you’d struggle to find anything as good as this car for anything cheaper so probably a harsh rating.

•    Control Range
 3/5
No real complaints in this section, but nothing to write home about either, decent enough range and control as you’d expect with a car of this style of car.

•    Battery Usage
 3/5
As with all of our tests we were using the same very cheap batteries in this case 5 AA batteries in the car and 1 9V in the controller, after about an hours time the performance and ability of the car did distinguish, but after a short rest it did work fine again for a while, overall reasonable enough use of the batteries.

•    Controller
4/5
Uses 1 9V battery good forward and reverse motion through one finger, reasonable looks and a simple easy turning mechanism, styled like a car wheel with soft tire grip nicely weighted, not to sharp and not to stiff.  Very nice moulded grip for ease and comfort, Overall a decent controller.

All in all this Nissan 350Z is a brilliant RC car, amazing looks, reasonable speed great control and a price that’s not too shabby I wouldn’t recommend it to the hardcore speed freak but superb car for the younger kids aged anything up to 13, or for someone just looking to have a lil’ play about or for something not to frightening.

I’d give it a high 3.5 out of 5 over all, moderate car, not the best but certainty not the worst.
