Fast, Capable And Affordable RC Off-Roader!
The media could not be loaded. I got this 1:14 RC off-roader by Cirmine, because I already have a version, really like it, and wanted another. The kit is hobby grade, and good quality, especially for the 1:14 size and price. Most of the body is sturdy and shock absorbing nylon, with a full metal driveline. With a 390 brushed motor, it has plenty of torque and speed, and while not crazy fast like a brushless, the power is usable and quick within about 20mph. The wide swingarms and longer 1:14 body, makes for a stable platform, and comes in (3)body styles and tire configurations, from balloon chevron tires, and a couple other off-road versions. All kits also include a set of paddle tires, a nice bonus, especially for the price. Included are (4)spare hex wheel nuts, and (2)knuckles(small parts nice to have). The shocks are springer, not oil-filled, but have preload adjustability, and although bouncy, do a surprisingly good job keeping the wheels on the ground and absorbing hits. The controller is simple, feels good in the hand, has trim/speed adjustment, with smooth trigger and wheel feathering. It binds well to the car, and quick at controlling motor speed and the snappy servo. Handling is very good, and a fun and maneuverable off-roader! Depending on the tires and shock tension, the car can be adjusted into very different handling cars using the same platform. I put on some low profile track tires, tightened the suspension, and it’s a super fun drifter, while the sand tires makes it a monster climber. I’ve driven this car through 5 battery charges(I also like how the battery locks in and out), through some tough terrain and some mud and water. I have a box full of broken cars that didn’t make it past a few charges before needing some repair. This 1:14 Cirmine, keeps proving to be a reliable and very capable platform, and a very good 1:14 off-roader, again, especially for the price. Currently, they are some of my favorite cars to drive regularly. Very nice! 5 stars👍🏼 Read more
