Fms RC Car 1/12 Scale Suzuki Jimny 4WD Crawler RTR 2.4Ghz Off Road Crawling Model Vehicle Remote Control Truck with LED Lights for Adults and Kids…

Very fun, tons of features. very scale. it is my daughters (and my american bully's) favorite RC vehicle

Seriously, I thought my fully decked out, rock light rocking, light add on kit and engine audio enhanced Traxxas TRX was the king of scale, but this little guy blew me away from the simple fact that when you turn the wheels, the steering wheel turns too... Also every door opens, every mirror is adjustable, the seats even recline and move forward and backwards for more leg room. Under the hood sits a little detailed plastic engine that mostly hides the battery pack. From underneath it looks far more like a die cast model or a real car, than an RC vehicle. You can just barely see a servo cable from under neath, but it otherwise looks nothing like an RC drive train. The scale detail is literally top to bottom. Inside and out.I wish they had gone with mini JST for the battery pack instead of the wonky Losi style battery connector (jx ht? I forget) so I'll eventually need to rewire it to use the same connector as my other minis so I can swap batteries and use 1 charger.The drive train is wound very tight which is another slight negative as when running this on a high grip surface it kind of lurches into motion like an explosion, and when you hit the brakes it's like hitting a brick wall. No momentum getting up to speed or slowing down. This makes it good for rock crawling, but makes it harder to look scale when driving unless you're very careful on he throttle and brakes.Top speed is slow for an RC car, but fine for a crawler or scale vehicle. The scale speed is probably in the high 80's and real life speed 6-8mph.It's quiet and that leads me to my first suggestion. This thing begs for engine revving sounds. That and the scale looks would make this little guy turn heads anywhere. Maybe somebody can make an add on speaker that looks like a mini sub woofer or something?Well worth the money.Oh, and the case it comes with, it's made of foam so I don't expect it to last long, but on the other hand it's high enough quality and convenient that I haven't thrown it out yet. I don't usually keep the boxes these come in so I'm torn.

This is an awesome RC car looks so real with lights doors open. Battery life is good for the size battery, I was able to fit the FMS Atlas 6x6 battery in it it's 600Mah instead of the 380 Mah get more run time out of it.

So much to show but limited to 30 images. Extremely detailed 1/12 scale remote control vehicle. There are so many realistic details in this Suzuki Jimny (in the US it was the Samurai until discontinued in the early 90s). So many scale details that it's only natural that the overall vehicle is super delicate. Parts can and will break. The hinge for the hood is plastic and locks up when open. Be careful when closing it. The doors snap closed near the center. Pulling the top of the door will pop off the window. It's better to use a thin piece of plastic or toothpick to pop open the doors. The interior is amazing. Seats move forward and backward as well as tilt forward. Steering wheel turns as the front wheels do. The rear seat folds down 50/50 to lay flat. The rear compartment opens too. It's mostly plastic to it's a good idea not to force anything. The rear compartment catches on the rear seat if it's laid flat for me so I need to slightly lift the seat when I open the hatch. The wheels might have wobble. To correct this, I removed the wheels with a small screwdriver and a 4mm socket and carefully remounted them and the wobble was minimal.Go to the FMS website, it's fmsmodel all one word no spaces dot com. Go to the product listing and in the description you will see the link to download the manual. The printed manual in the case is not complete. The remote has four toggle switches that control the ESC (ESC parameter settings). These are not explained in the printed manual but appear on page 10 of the downloaded version. I posted an image of that page.The ESC is sensitive. If you have the brake activated (parameter setting), you have to brake first before you go into reverse. And reverse only takes the slightest touch back and the vehicle is moving. Going forward too, it moves with minimal effort. There's a button on the remote for low and high gear. You can also control the amount of driving power from the remote dial as well as the steering radius.The brake light and reverse light was unplugged at the ESC under the hood out of the box. Check the manual for details. It was simply an easy plug in and done deal luckily.It's not a crawler (too low) and would be a challenge for modifying with aftermarket parts. However, a super high quality 1/12 scale Suzuki Jimny and can also be used to roam around is absolutely amazing.

was nice , just not for kids,

Mi mejor amigo tiene un suzuki idéntico, y quede super bien con el. Difícil entender como se usa según me indicó, pero los detalles son fantásticos.

The battery does not charge making it inoperable. Very disappointed given the amount of money spent. I'm not sure if it was a short in the charging device or what. I tried 5 different chargind methods. I returned and requested a replacement (which was a disaster in and of itself) only for the replacement to arrive with the same issue. It's a cool looking, very detailed RC car but is far too expensive to not work or run. The replacement was also returned and I'll be purchasing a completely different car. Unless you have money to throw away, purchase something else.

Great Product, 150 Dollar cheaper in US to Europe. Deliefering time perfect from US !!!!! Thanks to All and merry christmas
