    All Vroom, Less Room

    Building a car from the ground up is a rite of passage for many men…if they’re starring in a popular 90’s sitcom. For the rest of us, it’s expensive, time consuming, and takes up way too much space...at least it used to.

    Scratch his fix-it itch with the DIY Wooden RC Car Kit. From the steel axles and drive rod, to the full-wooden frame and suspension system, this kit has everything he’ll need to build a super-speedy RC Car from the ground up. No garage required.

    Fuel his creative tank, and rev up his excitement engines with the DIY Wooden RC Car Kit.

    Speed Bumps:

    • When fully assembled, this RC car can hit speeds up to 30 mph. When disassembled, it’s pretty slow.
    • A rechargeable lithium ion battery ensures hours of RC fun.
    • The included remote control and receiver make agile handling a breeze, no matter the road conditions.
    • Comes with all the hardware he’ll need and a detailed instruction booklet that’ll have him putting the proverbial pedal to the metal in no time.
    • Each of the over 100 wooden pieces has been laser cut for maximum precision and easy assembly.

    A fun build

    Besides the comments that have already been made concerning the directions being wrong for the control arms I only have one more negative comment and then I'll get onto the good stuff. I thought the directions were very hard to follow at times and the pictures weren't clear enough to make up for the text, however if you have some patience you'll be able to figure them out. It's part of the fun to be challenged a bit right? I really enjoyed the build and the car when finished runs great and so much fun. The four-wheel drive feature enables this car to go almost everywhere. I would recommend this RC car to anyone who enjoys modeling and DYI projects.

    Unfortunate

    I was so excited for this build when my wife had this delivered to me at work for Valentines Day. My excitement quickly subsided after the first 30 minutes into the build. The instructions are really poor, and many aspects are incorrect. Yet, with my background in engineering and mechanics, I figured we would press on. The final straw came 3 hours later, with the missing upper shock mount screws and during the assembly of the gear housing to the base. After sorting out the incorrect images again in the instructions, I proceeded to start the screws into the housing. I knew it felt a bit tight, yet proceeded, and sure enough, just 3 threads in and the **** broke - "Really!?" I exclaimed. At this time, out of frustration and disappointment, I have shelved this kit. I am sure I will eventually pull it back down, shop for additional materials, break out my tools and complete this build correctly.
    Overall, I have had many of the Man Crates products, all with good results and enjoyment. This one however, is another promising idea, it just missed the mark in so many ways.

    Good kit, but needs some improvements

    I got this as a gift from my wife. Overall, it is a good kit, and it was fun to work on. The main problem is the instruction manual, which should be way more detailed. There should not be parts where the readers have to figure out by themselves. Also, many parts are wrong and may be outdated and doesn't match the parts provided.
