HAIBOXING 18859 1:18 Scale All Terrain RC Car, Hobby 4WD Remote Control Car | 2.4GHz Electric RC Vehicle 36 KPH High Speed 4X4 Waterproof Off-Road RC Truck with Two Rechargeable Batteries for RC Driving

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tons of fun for the money! This little RC truck is an absolute blast! It’s surprisingly fast right out of the box, easy to control, and handles really well on just about any surface. The 4WD gives it great traction, and it’s durable enough to take a beating without missing a beat. One thing I really like is that when the battery starts getting low and it slows down a bit, it becomes perfect for driving around inside the house. My dogs go absolutely crazy chasing it, and it’s become just as much fun for them as it is for me. The included extra battery is a huge plus since you can keep the fun going longer. Whether you’re driving outdoors or just entertaining yourself (and your pets) indoors, this RC truck is well worth the money. Highly recommended!

I was envious of my little boy, since I bought him a remote control car for Christmas, so I bout this one for myself. I wasn't sure if I should get a fancy $300 hobbyist vehicle or not, so I decided to start with a affordable entry level one like this to test the waters of RC cars, and I am so happy! I've Played with it about five times now, each time playing with it long enough to drain one or two batteries. They don't last hours of course, but the as advertised duration sounds about right. The slow mode is plenty fast for going around in the house or the rough rocks of the back yard, but when I made it go full speed, it kept up with my neighbor's $250 traxxis everywhere but on the straight away. I've had a load of fun with it, it has great handing, and frankly, I'm impressed. Of course it has a lot of plastic parts, but at this price range that is the norm. It's shocks and driveshaft are metal which is where it really counts. I'll update this as I use it if anything goes wrong, but I've had a blast with this little car so far! April 2021 Update: I played with this car every weekend since the year started, we've had TONS of fun with it. The steering mechanism finally broke though. I had gotten the warranty though (the getting of which includes leaving a positive review, something I was leery about) and was really happy to see they sent me a new part right away, and it was really easy to install and get back to playing! I was worried "toy grade" cars wouldn't be so easily fixable, but not so! This car has been great. Now I'm going to go back to chasing my kids around the yard with it. July 2022 Update: I still love this thing! It's still going strong a year and a half later. The lights in the front have gone out, but mechanically it's still great. I've been careful to never store the batteries at full charge or zero charge and they are still running great, between the two batteries there's always plenty of playtime. I've been really impressed by the durability of this thing, I've even taken it to a skate park once and it got beat up a bit, but it's still going strong! I was afraid of the unknown brand when I bought it, but this thing is sturdy!

Even on slow mode, this RC truck is super fast on straightaways and flat surfaces. I use it to play with my two fur babies, and they absolutely love it. It comes with two batteries so charging isn't an issue. We play with one while the other is charging. However, it only takes about an hour and a half or so to charge. Because we use this on grass in our backyard, the battery doesn't last except for maybe 15 or 20 minutes. Although, when we use it in the driveway it lasts longer. I don't mind because it does have the two batteries that we alternate. Speaking of batteries, it is quite simple and quick to remove the spent battery and exchange it for a fresh one. Even with one battery, this tires my pups out from chasing it all over the backyard. With that said, we have already lost 4 of the clips that hold the plastic truck cover. That is because once my dog catches it he tries to "kill" it and chomps down on it. (It's slower on grass and therefore he can catch it every once in a while. So, I keep it on fast mode on the grass, and slow it down when we're on concrete.) It turns left or right with ease, but it goes so fast that it's hard for me to control. However, there's a knob you can use to adjust the turning sensitivity. (I'm still fine tuning it.) This is my first legitimate RC car, and both my pups and I love playing with it. I wished I would have seen the brushless motor version as I would have purchased that one instead. (I knew this was a brushed motor, but got distracted looking at other cars, and bought this one by mistake, albeit a happy mistake.) I'll try to upload a video of it (and my pups) in action.

Car is exactly what is described in the product description. Initially I was impressed, the car is fast and handles well! It was a total blast to use it outside. Battery life was awesome. The car is ready to rock out of the package. Unfortunately,I believe I purchased a lemon. The rear gear didn't last more than 24hrs. A terrible grinding noise is heard. Customer service seems great it does not appear I will have any issues with the return. I would purchase this item again.

I have been involved with the RC hobby since I was a young boy (over 35yrs), so I have seen a lot of changes through the years, and have learned a lot about land vehicles, planes, helicopters and quad copters/drones. For the price of this truck, I have not ever seen or used an RC vehicle that was this fun, and of decent quality. These days, it's easy to spend over $100 and end up with crap ( which i have done a couple times). This Haiboxing model 18859 truck is great. I got this for my 5yr old son who has crashed, smashed, and bashed it at high speeds many times, and nothing has broken on it yet. This truck is very fast in normal speed mode, and truly is good quality. Being that it is 4 wheel drive, it burns through our yard on grass with ease, faster and more easily than other trucks my son has that are 3 times its size. The cons....the li-po batteries that came with this do still work, but the charger that came with this does not balance the cells well, so they have started to lose their run time. So the charger is not very good, I use my own balance charger, and I will be buying replacement batteries of a little bit better quality. The shocks that came stock worked fine at first, but after a few months of use they broke down and started to bind up. I was able to find upgraded replacement shocks which are better quality, but they were $20 for the set of 4. So the price of that is steep considering the whole truck and remote with 2 batteries was under $120. The motor in the truck I got (about a year ago in Jan 2022) was not brushless, however it works very well and has plenty of torque. I would have preferred brushless, but that wasn't an option with this model at the time, and honestly this truck does just fine with the brushed motor. It looks like now the newer version comes with brushless. Overall I really can't complain with the two cons I have listed. The amount of use and abuse this has taken at my home has absolutely qualified this truck as a great value, especially for someone like me that wanted this for my son who is new to the hobby. I wanted something cheaper ( as opposed to some rc trucks that are $400-$800), but not junk. And that's exactly what I got with this, it is a great truck for what I paid and I definately recommend it for someone starting out, or who just wants something better than the average big box store rc truck ( like WalMart). My relatives have spent $80+ for trucks that are absolute garbage compared to this Haiboxing model, and my sons truck would drag these across the yard if tied together in a "pull off" fashion. If you are looking for something decent that won't break the bank, is fast, 4 wheel drive, 2.4ghz remote, 2 batteries, and some replacement parts available on the website....this will work for you.

When I was younger I always wanted an RC car. Not every Christmas but most I got one and every year I broke it. The last RC I had was a hobby grade car and I broke it. It was probably just stripped gears that needed replaced. Over the years my sons have had several cheap RC cars. Recently I started watching some YouTubers (Kevin Talbot) that play with RC cars and I thought I would buy a small hobby grade RC car and try this all over again. I feel like I could work on this car fairly easily if not take it to a local hobby store and have them help. Needless to say I'm blown away by this car. I charged up the battery and took it out for a rip and it's awesome! Super fast and is perfectly able to rip around the yard. My youngest drove it around it slow mode and a little in fast mode but after the first battery drained I immediately ordered two more to give my boys for Christmas. It seems solidly built, has some weight to it all plastic but as some say plastic bends or takes shock better than metal. 4wd seems crazy on these little cars. As with any electronics over the last 20 or 30 years things just keep getting better and this is no different. It's well built. You can find people on youtube that know way more than I do praise this little car and rip it way harder than I ever will. The instruction manual is good and has a full parts list and assembly diagrams to help when you need to take it apart. The best part about these cars is even though they are $70 you can buy replacement parts even upgraded parts. It makes sense to pay a little extra for a car like this and when something breaks you can you buy a cheaper replacement part instead of buying a whole new car. These kinds of cars also should be more durable. I want so bad to upgrade the shocks and drive axles but I'm going to wait for a bit and keep it stock until something breaks or I just get the itch and buy them. I love the slow mode. It's perfect for in house ripping around and for younger kids. Fast mode for anyone under 10 would probably mean they would break something pretty quick but if you start them young and in slow mode they can get used to it and control it fast mode be easier and more fun for them. Overall in my opinion it's a great little car. I'm really going to enjoy it. My boys will enjoy it. Can't wait to upgrade it. Not looking forward to when something breaks but really glad there are replacement parts. Highly recommend for cheap fun. The only complaint I would have is the pins that hold the body down are really small and some seem to come up with different and better ways to hold the body down. I'm sure when I start to work on it the small size of everything might somewhat of a hindrance but we'll just have to see. I worry about if things are taken apart multiple times the screw holes could get stripped but that's just opinion not fact. You can buy the whole chassis if you wanted to. In all I feel like I will get a lot of enjoyment out of this car. Breaking things is normal and frustration may normal too but it will be worth it.

Wow, what can I say about this little beast. Probably one of the best little basher there is. It exceeds expectations, it is super tough, very quick for it's size and handles great. The "fun factor" of these are way higher than many other faster more "high end" name branded RCs. I have 3 of these myself. After showing them off to my family and friends, they have ordered some for themselves because they were so impressed with it. You can bash these without worrying about breaking them within reason! Even in the rain! Yes they are waterproof, more so than I expected, but still wouldn't advise getting it fully submerged (although I took mine through some huge mud puddles, and still all good). I do suggest you clean and WD-40 after running it in the harsh elements to keep it alive and well. I would say the only weak points or cons so far I have found are: -Body shell is thin and will crack quick. However you can cure this by gorilla taping the inside of the shell. It will do wonders, especially where the body mount holes are. While it does add minor weight, it makes the body able to hold up to the abuse the rest of the RC can endure. -Body clips are super thin and these RCs will shed them the first time you roll or flip it. Highly recommend ordering extras and having them on hand when you go out and bash. I ordered some 1/16 clips by apex on Amazon and they are much heavier duty and will actually stay in, plus they come in a pack of 100 so if you do lose one you have tons of spares. -Battery that comes with it does not give you much run time, maybe 10 mins maximum. It also doesn't unleash the true potential of these little RCs. I highly recommend buying a LiPo for it (search "7.4v 1100 mAh LiPo JST", there are a couple options. These are the batteries for WLtoys A949, A959, A969, A979 and A929 and will fit into the HBX Rampage, Hailstorm, and Rachet. You just have to move the screw up one hole on your battery hold down). These batteries are probably the biggest upgrade you can do along with adding the upgraded oil shocks. Turns this thing into a little animal with added punch and acceleration, along with 2x or more the runtime. Only thing is to be mindful about not running the battery too low as I do not believe the ESC has a LiPo cutoff so if you run it too low it can damage the LiPo. -Shocks that come stock are friction style without oil and are extremely bouncy and make it a bit hard to control, and do not protect the chassis from bottoming out so you will bang it up quick. The upgraded oil shocks available for these are completely worth it. Highly recommend. Makes this RC go from toy to hobby grade. The only part I have broke on these is a part in the steering assembly. I would say this is the only weak link in this whole platform. I wish they had an upgrade for it but unfortunately they do not. Just be aware this is the part to check after hard hits and crashes. I have broke 2 on 2 separate occasions. Both were probably my fault as I'm not easy on these at all but as stated before, it is a weak point. What makes it even tougher is the part is not available from anywhere in the USA and has to be ordered from China. It took about 3 weeks for me to get so if you do break this part be expecting a bit of down time. I would also recommend buying extras if and when you do order it. (HBX part# 18109). Overall, I can't say enough good things about this little RC, it has been one of the best most reliable and fun RCs I have ever owned, period. Highly recommend. Thing will take abuse and just keep going, and has great performance to boot. I always bring one in a backpack when I go out bashing any of my other RCs and always end up ending the bash session with it! (My little Ole reliable!) Just wish any of the parts were able to get faster. Thank you and I hope this helps anyone looking at these great little RCs.

Update! Ok manual states charger will have solid red light and blinking green light while charging. Both batteries when put on the charger seem to be charging, as the red light is on and green light blinking. After 3.5 hours of charging per battery neitherof them finished charging, or atleast the charger status claimed they never did. I wnet ahead and pulled them off the charger to run them. 15 minutes of run time tops per battery. Ad states 40 minutes of runtime for 2 batteries. I am missing 10 minutes of run time lol. Overall kinda disapponiting the batteries charger for over 2 hours for a whopping 15 minutes of fun. Despite the reverse situationand the short battery life. The truck is a lil firecracker! Fast and will take a beating. Mixed feelings but defintely fun to play with. Wish the batteries lasted longer. I can get over the reverse but hourse of charging for 15 minutes is kinda disheartening. So after reading the manual i realized apparently the truck is set up to operate the brake/reverse the way it does so the complaint down below is invalid. no malfunction. But i dislike the way the reverse has to be engaged disengaged and engaged again if you want to go into reverse while you are traveling forward. I dont like the fact you can go from reverse to forward but not forawrd to reverse. ( Original review )... Out of the box truck is small and doesn't seem like anything special. Upon picking it up I noticed it had some weight to it. Upon further inspection I pulled the body off. Looking every inch over, I realized this is a well built machine. No defects that can be visually noticed. Now on to the controller. It is cheaply made. Comparable to remotes from RC's at Wal-Mart. No biggie though. Steering reverse button is sunken below the surface of the controller, which makes it difficult to switch the button back and forth. No biggie, as I don't plan on using it. The normal and slow button is barely above the surface just enough to get your finger on it so that's good. Now the operation of the unit. I like that it had normal and slow mode. I started out in my living room on slow. First thing I noticed was that when traveling forward, I pushed the trigger from forward to reverse and the truck slowed to a stop. I then had to let off of the trigger and push it again to go into reverse. Surely this is not how that is suppose to work. If you try go from forward to reverse the truck does not respond. Kinda frustrating. Makes the truck less fun to drive. Despite the reverse malfuntion the truck is fast and handles pretty good for how small it is. On gravel the truck bounces a lot. Doesn't do very well in uncut grass but will go through it. On pavement it is fun. Ramping it is a blast. Will do donuts on pavement. I don't like that the shocks are plastic but atleast they are adjustable. Adjusting the shocks definitely improves the handling. I also purchased the oil filled. Have yet to install. ( have installed oil filled shocks since original review) they work so much better than the factory plastics. Overall I like the truck. Disappointed in the reverse malfunction situation but I reached out to Amazon they ask if I wanted to return it. I opted to talk to the manufacturer first. I just messaged them so hopefully they can resolve my issue. Would have given this 5 stars had the reverse malfunction wasn't an issue. If they cannot help me I will be returning

my daughter and son enjoyed too much playing it at our backyard.

Muy buen vehículo de control remoto. Lo único que esperaba es que fuera un poco más grande. La carcasa superior es muy delgada y se puede quebrar fácilmente. Lo demás está excelente. Tiene muy buena potencia.

Our 5 year old son absolutely loves this RC car. It is incredibly fast, good quality and withstands lots of rough rising on dirt, grass and doing jumps. Comes with 2 batteries which is great to keep using while the other battery charges. Charge lasts well and not too long to recharge. My husband is so impressed with it he plans to get one for himself too! Well worth the money.

Bought this for my daughter based off good reviews. The first few times we started it up, both front wheels would pivot to the right, and no amount of trim adjustment could get them lined up straight. This made it really difficult to drive and we had to constantly fight it to keep it driving in a straight line. I tried to find solutions online, but they were all related to adjusting trim or doing something to the servo motor. I had no interest in taking it apart to fix. Just wanted it to work. Cut to today: we fired it up and the wheels auto straightened themselves out properly and we drove it full tilt without issue. The only thing I can attribute this to is that my daughter ran it full speed into the curb 4 or 5 times. Maybe this shook something loose which helped the alignment? I don’t know. All I know is that this thing is a rocket and pretty fun to drive. My kid is 9 and has no trouble controlling it even at full speed (now that it drives straight). The “slow” mode is still really fast, and great for when my 7 year old wants a turn. I’m 3 days, it’s held up to curb flips, rolling across the lawn, and front impacts at almost full speed. Nothing has broken yet, but the headlight popped out (easy to stick back in). For $100 I don’t think we could ask for much more. If the alignment issue comes back, I’d change my review to 3 stars, but as it is now, it’s 5.

Have 2 now (for the kids), they’re tough RC’s. Support is good, they sent me a remote and receiver from an issue. Im surprised how long the batteries last, almost an hour at the kids park, on pave. In grass its a different story. Using it in “slow” mode helps to reduce power consumption and can still have fun. Crashed both a few times, still intact. Thinking of getting a third for myself. Worth it. Throttle and steering precise. 100% worth the 100$ CAD. Kids use them often. I steal it and use it too hahah Love it.
