Customer Video Review Length:: 0:08 Mins This is an awesome product. It is so great another review said that the batteries are hard to get in, but you just have to put them in the right order. It works great and exceeds my expectations. Anything about this product I've had to say was good but when it goes forward as fast as it can it tends to do Papa wheelies. Overall I think it is a great product besides the price .

I've had many technic sets over the years and have returned again now that I'm a father. the build itself was medium difficulty great for a beginner looking for a challenge. I have great fun every few days when my 2 year old invades my home office and wants to watch me play with the car (and run in terrified giggles when it comes towards him) This build rekindled my love of technic and has defiantly led to my son being curious about how things work, I couldn't have asked for a better result.

Recommendation: no 7.2 / 10 by Jim

This is a very fun little model that will keep the kids entertained for a while. Two things that I don't like about this model. One is the rear, with clearly visible cables. And another thing is that the treads don't have any grip on smooth flat surfaces. Maybe a third thing and that is the price. Seems a bit steep for a small RC toy. But these cons definitely don't mean I don't like it, because I simply love this cute little stunt racer!

Recommendation: no by TobyMac

The build itself is uninspiring. There are no clever techniques used, and the endresults is a bit dull. The aim is clearly to play with this set. But that is also not great. Driving a straight line is tricky, because the motors aren't going the exact same speed, so there is a always a bit of wobble. Steering is also tricky and requires some practice.

I think the Technic designers have continued on a winning Technic concept with this latest Remote-Controlled Stunt Racer. The model has lots of playability, Power Functions have been included, and the set is very reasonably priced. I am sure that this set will appeal to a wide range of fans.

Recommendation: meh by Dimitri

It is an awesome feeling once the build is complete and you utilise the set to its full capabilities, but getting there is not the most enjoyable LEGO Technic experience. Younger fans will absolutely relish the remote control features but older fans might want to look elsewhere for complete satisfaction.

Recommendation: meh by Jetro de Château

The set is a good parts and electronics pack to add to your collection. The secondary model remains to be seen, but it will not have a very different behaviour. If what you want is to du stunts with a remote controlled LEGO Technic vehicle, this is your set. If you prefer mechanisms and building experience, there are other sets that are more satisfying.
