This ZD Racing is a very nicely designed monster truck. It's a 16 scale rc car and has almost the size of the Traxxas E-Revo. It comes with a powerful brushless motor and several part in Aluminium. The shocks are advertised as been oil-filled but from my first test and run I doubt this. The hugh tires are really remarkable and filled with foam. In general, the car runs really nice and fast. it is advertised with 40 km/h. It's probably less than this, but nut much! The radio is quite handy and runs on 4 AA batteries. It has throttle and steering trim and - as far as I could understand from the Chinese manual - a speed trim (which is very helpful for beginners). What I don't like is the unprotected motor gear. Dust, sand and small gravel will find its way into this. It came with the manual for the brushed car and - as already mentioned - with a purely Chinese radio manual. As per my knowledge you can't download other manual from ZD Racing so this is a little bit annoying. Right on the first run with some bashing the front left steering arm (6260) broke. Both, my son and myself were very disappointed. Besides this, I have seen and read several reviews about the bad quality of the differential. I can't tell of any problems because of the steering arm brake. My recommendation to ZD Racing: please offer at least some upgrade parts in Aluminium for the diffs and the arms. My recommendation to other consumers: If the issue with the diff really persists, keep your fingers off this car. otherwise use the speed trim to reduce max speed and you have a nice cheap car.
