DEERC 9206E DIY Extra Shell 1:10 Scale Large RC Car 48KM/H Hobby Grade High Speed Remote Control Car for Adults Boys All Terrain 4WD 2.4GHz Off-Road Monster RC Truck with 2 Batteries for 40+ Minutes

Had an issue with a steering fault after a few weeks use and contacted the seller. After an easy online chat and exchanging some videos of the fault they sent me a brand new replacement car. Not a part, the whole car! I have never experienced better service or support for a product. They really stand by their warranty and were so easy to deal with. The car itself is a lot of fun and my 11 year old son loves it. It has plenty of get up and go and is easy to use

I had an RC10 in the 90s and have been wanting another hobby quality rc car ever since I got rid of it. Well my DEERC 9206E car far exceeds my expectations. It seems like it's faster than my previous one and the battery run time is long (more than the 20 min advertised)! This car is at home on the asphalt, gravel, dirt and grass. It also climbed over some large tree roots with ease. My only complaint is the ft body mounts have broken off twice. There was enough left to "repair" them, but I would like to buy 4 body mounts without the shock tower (which I haven't broken-- yet- hopefully not!) My favorite place to take the car is a close by school and behind 2 local shopping center, where there's always some fun obstacles. I would recommend this to anyone starting out in the rc hobby or someone my age (63) who's eyesight isn't the best for building a model w all the tine parts. I believe it's too fast for a child under 12. One more small concern. Too bad there's not a way of charging the batteries quicker than 3+ hours. I will be ordering another batt kit with 2 chargers. I give this 4 3/4 stars because of the body mount issue. If not for that it would be 5. Update April 20. I accidently ran my car into a pothole filled w water. Enough to mess up the ESC. So to all other owners- do not submerge the ESC. A shallow puddle of water will not hurt it but a 3" water filled pothole will. I'm so dissapointed but at least it's still under warranty. I still give it a 4 1/2 stars, but beware! I don't consider this car waterproof. Update-- May 17 I ended up returning the car and got myself a Deerc 302E which is still fast as hell!! I did miss the larger size of the 9206e so (after doing reaserch to verify both cars are from the same company) I got a Holyton 9205E which is $30 cheaper than the deerc. And it came with 2- 1800Mah batteries and the usual acc bag w wrench, charger etc. If you got your eye ona deerc9206e, chech out the Holyton 9205e. Same car, lower price and has headlites like the dearc. Sounds like a no brainer to me.

Amazing for the price! Goes about 30 with warm batteries. Very durable (except the cover) and light and nimble. Able to climb dirt, wood chips and sand slopes no problem on full power. Perfect for small kids because you can turn the power way down to like 20%. I put a much bigger battery in mine with a higher C output and now it lasts almost 45 minutes on full power. Will definitely buy another.

This is not a toy, unless you're a mature teenager or a teen x5! (That would be me). This little hot rod gives the fun and thrills that you normally only watch on TV. It screams on asphalt, and slides through turns in dirt. It handles jumps with aplomb, but it's also got enough traction and clearance to be able to move along smartly in short grass and even leaves. The four-wheel drive, aggressive tread pattern, and plentiful torque make it a sure-footed scrambler on uneven, near verticle terrain. It took a few runs to graduate to having the throttle and steering on max. At that point it's a wild ride, but controllable with a steady hand. I found it actually more fun, but less terrifying, to turn down the steering and throttle to about 2/3. However, it also breaks up the sameness of a ride by going full tilt and trying to modulate your twitchy response when it starts to head for a tree or the ditch. The controls are well thought-out. The steering trim needed a little tweaking on my model, but was well-placed with the knob at the top of the control unit. Similarly, two other knobs adjust the responsiveness of the steering and throttle. Those, too, are handily placed at the top of the handheld control unit. It is easy to make adjustments at any moment you desire. It is well made with real oil filled shocks and a sturdy underside to the chassis.. Independent suspension and four-wheel drive make it surprisingly stable over bumps and rocks. Having an extra shell is a bonus on two counts. You can either decorate it to your liking or keep it over the stock shell and protect the finish. Likewise it comes with two batteries which is a real plus. I found the battery life to be surprisingly adequate. 20 minutes per battery is a pretty good run. I was asked to evaluate this car, and here's my unbiased evaluation… PROs: It is a large RC model as these things go. At 1:10 scale It doesn't look like a toy, and it doesn't act like one either. It is light for its size, yet sturdy and well made. I appreciate the fact that the motor is equipped with air cooling fins in order to prolong motor life. It generates a lot of very quick torque and jumps off the line when you hit the throttle. The steering is as responsive as you want it. At max setting it can do tight donuts and even slide turns in spite of its four-wheel drive. The interchangeable body makes for ease of replacement if you somehow do catastrophic damage. Likewise, there is a full complement of parts available should you need them. The battery life is more than adequate. The speed gets up in the high 30s which, for its scale, approaches 300 miles an hour. It feels like it. It has good range. It showed no signs of losing control when it got as far out as I was comfortable with. I would guess that was approaching 100 yards. At that point, at 30 mph I was on the verge of losing control myself. CONs: Its Shell is very light and thin. It feels like it could develop a tear. After repeated crashes and rollovers, however, it has not shown anything but a few light scuffs. The cotter pins that hold the shell on and also lock the battery in place are a bit of an annoyance. The holes the pin needs to go through are just slightly larger than the diameter of the pin. I don't see any reason why the holes couldn't be a larger diameter, and I may actually drill them out with a fine drill to make the cotter pins easier to insert and remove. If there were no throttle and steering adjustments, it would be too twitchy to be fun, in my opinion. The adjustments make this car fit your reflexes and need for speed. Overall, I was very impressed. I think an 8-year-old could handle it, but it seems more appropriate for a teen or adult.

To start off, I have a variety of 1/10 scale RC's in the $200 - $350 price range so I lowered my expectations a bit when deciding to purchase the DEERC 9206E. I was interested to see how a lower priced unit handled and held up to off road use (as with any level of RC vehicle, you will damage and break parts eventually during off road use). This model peaked my interest as it was 4wd, had a decent max speed rating, came with 2 batteries, has an extra body,, and had headlights. I received it in one day via Amazon Prime and it came packaged quite nicely. Don't be alarmed when you only saw 1 battery in the box... Just take off the body off and the 2nd battery will already be in the unit. Like any new RC, make sure you read the instructions before use to ensure the best experience (which the instructions had very adequate pictures and brief explanations... Not a long drawn out encyclopedia... This was nice). When I took off the body, I was pleased to see it had a metal driveshaft and metal axles/cv joints (I was not expecting that). Also, the bottom of the chassis is solid and will protect the inner workings quite nicely. It was also nice to see that parts that could break (due to normal use) were easily replaceable and it had a parts diagram so you can easily identify parts you would need to order. Now the controller... It will work nicely with different sized hands and the trim, throttle, and steering adjustments are on top for easy view and access (compared to some remotes that have these on the side, which can be prone to getting bumped). Normally I will charge the batteries first, however I thought I would see how long it would last out of the box... I was impressed, I actually got a full charge session (I would not always count on that as it depends how long the item may have sat at the warehouse). Keep in mind that once you charge the batteries for the first time, you will have better performance. Now, on to the driving experience... Had to make a minor steering trim adjustment (to be expected on any RC), however what impressed me was the fact I made the minor adjustment and flipped it a few times and ran it through rough terrain and it never went out of trim. This unit is also very durable as after almost an hour of hard rough terrain driving,, nothing broke. In terms of the product description stating this was fast... I am use to having some brushless motor RC's so this is not that fast yet it did perform quite nicely. Being that it is tamer than a brushless RC, it helps manage driving in rough terrain (as you don't want to over throttle it). It was also nice to have a steering angle limit dial too. Both limit dials allow for you to dial in the RC for various types of terrain an levels of RC experience. In terms of the headlights on this RC, I was quite impressed by how bright they were (considering the price point of this unit). It makes it really easy to see in low light and dark conditions. It would be really cool if they added taillights to this too (which you could do yourself). The battery life was as good as the description states (maybe a bit longer use in my case). Bottom line, I would buy this RC again!!! I highly recommend this to others as it is a fun 4x4 RC. It would be a great RC for kids and beginners (and even others with previous RC experience). I am definitely going to look at other DEERC offerings too (now that I have seen the quality and features at this price point).
