Wiproso 16889 Ravage, a 1/16th Scale 4×4 Race Truck, comes Ready-To-Run out of box. Just install batteries in the remote control and get ready to race. Fast acceleration by a Type 390 motor, smooth forward/backward/brake, and responsive steering control. Independent suspension and high ground clearance enhance to make an All-terrain vehicle out of Ravage. Delicate configuration fulfills a neat and clean chassis layout.

I recently purchased the wiproso RC car and I’m thoroughly impressed! This little beast is a ton of fun to drive, and its performance exceeded my expectations. The car’s speed and agility are remarkable, making it a thrill to navigate through tight spaces and perform stunts.The build quality is solid, with a sturdy chassis and durable tires that can withstand rough terrain. The controller is comfortable to hold and easy to use, with a range of about 100 feet.My only gripe is that the battery life could be better. I get around 20-25 minutes of playtime before needing to recharge, which feels a bit short.Overall, I highly recommend the wiproso RC car to anyone looking for a fun and exciting hobby or gift. It’s perfect for both beginners and experienced RC enthusiasts!*Pros:*- Fast and agile- Durable build quality- Easy to use controller- Great value for the price*Cons:*- Battery life could be better

This is an awesome little rc truck. It’s fast, pretty durable tooling around in my back woods going over large roots and through debris. I managed to flip it over a couple times, and it “crashed” back down and kept going as if nothing ever happened. It doesn’t have a brushless motor, but at this price point, I didn’t expect one. I like the nice bright headlights. When you get the car, they are not installed, and you have to push them in place and plug the cable they give you into the ECU. Not a big deal, took 2 minutes.Unfortunately I can’t give this one five stars because they only included one battery! Even at this price point, you almost always get a second battery. And for good reason. With only one, after 20 minutes of fun, it’s all over for more than two hours while that 7.4V 1000mAh battery charges. Some of us have the same battery from other rc cars, and could borrow from those. However, at this price point that should not be an issue.

This is not the kind of RC car i has as a kid in the late 80’s early 90’s. It has some serious speed. It is quite a bit of fun doing donuts in the driveway or racing through the yard and jumping small bike ramps. It is built well enough to withstand quite a few tumbles.

Out of the box this is tons of fun.The controller takes 2 AA’s, and is your basic type controller. Feels decent in the hand, and has steering trim control, and a speed control to slow it down for the novice drivers.Charged up the battery with the included charger, which took about 30 minutes.Popped the battery in the “truggy”, and put on the body shell (which is held on by 4 included clips).Switched on the controller, and pushed the little on button on the truggy.Much fun was had!!!The little beasty is pretty rapid (Id estimate 20 ish mph), and is really sharp on the steering. Turning circle is impressive.The motor is responsive, but not overly powerful. I haven’t managed to make it do a wheelie. The range on the controller is fine. I sent it out to the extremities of my yard >150ft away and it still worked.The body shell looks great, and there are stickers included to personalize the vehicle.Something else I noticed that was great, was the truggy’s on-switch is on the side, and can be operated with the body shell on. That’s super handy.I have a couple of other 1/16 “truggy-basher” types. I have a cheap but fun version, and I have the brushless 3S speed merchant one. This one really is right in the middle for price and performance.Where this one is impressive is in its suspension. For a start it has a little more ground clearance than my others. The shocks are metal and oil filled, and in combination with the strong springs make it really cushioned against impacts. I haven’t managed to bottom out the suspension. I can drop it on to the floor from chest-height and it doesn’t bounce or hit hard. In the attached video I show it going off some steps, and it doesn’t bottom out the body, unlike the others I have. Impressive.I haven’t managed to break anything on it yet, but I think it’ll be fine when I do, because the parts look interchangeable between this and the popular brand. First thing that’ll probably break are the body shell mounts. I can switch them out with other replacements I already bought.Downsides. There is only 1 battery. I did get a good 20 minutes out of it, but buy a second battery.The body is held on with clips, but you only get the 4 that you need. Buy more because you will lose them.It’s a fair price for what you get. Spend less and the suspension will not be nearly as good. Spend $30-$40 more, you’ll get a better motor and possible upgrade to a3S battery. But maybe the suspension will not be as good.

ReviewsByMuseMy 14yo tester LOVES this RC car. He assembled it quickly and had it rolling in no time. The headlights were a snap to install. It runs well over grass and solid surfaces very fast. As he mentioned to me – he likes the speed control on the hand controller and only had to do the steering trim a little bit. I filmed a bit of him running it over my lumpy front yard (see video) and it worked beyond our expectations. Would make a great gift for anyone.
