If you're like me and focus primarily on slow speed / low rpm / rock crawlers, this thing will seem like it can achieve light speed it is so fast! I had watched a ton of videos about what to upgrade and things to look out for and every thing I saw on YouTube has been essentially true. It's a fun ride, so if you're thinking about it, just buy it. Mods: * The first thing I did was swap out the wheels and tires. The stocks ones are terrible. They're way too firm and, honestly, quite small for the job at hand. I used a set of softer tires and wheels from my ECX Temper 1/18 scale rock racer and they are a perfect fit. As well, they're light, so the buggy seems to handle them really well. * Next move was to add axle extensions. 20mm all around to help stabilize this thing in the turns. * Late night installation of ALL the metal hop-ups that you can do to this thing. It is now race ready and it looks way better all around, more capable. *** WARNING*** THIS THING DOES NOT LIKE WATER > AT ALL! < I ran it outside a few minutes and made the mistake of driving through a couple of small puddles. It stopped working and the roof lights began to flicker very quickly, so I knew I had gotten the electronics wet. In a panic, I pulled it apart and began to blow out all the water from the ESC/Radio unit. I thought for sure I had ruined it within 5 minutes of my first run. About a half hour of sitting in front of a fan, I tested the power to see what was happening and it booted right up, ready to run! Once it was back up and running, I went back outside and accidentally ran it through a puddle again, it stopped running shortly after ... AGAIN! I figured I had really messed up at this point, but did the same treatment (dry it off and place the car in front of a fan to dry) and within about a half hour, it was functional again. STAY AWAY FROM WATER WITH THIS THING! Battery Life: The battery life is pretty darn good. A fully charged stock battery let me run for at least a half hour on the first charge and it's still not dead yet. I haven't really had a chance to run it for an extended period of time due to the electronics getting wet, so it's hard to say what the straight line distance to a dead battery actually is. Summary: Well, it's looking like I went with writing a novel about this car. It's worth it if you're in to a little bit of speed and want to bash around a little. It goes like a champ on mowed grass and turns every little bump in to a jump at the speeds it can reach. Widening the wheel base with axle extensions will certainly help keep it 'rubber side down' in the turns, although, it has no problems rolling right over if you turn too tight at high speeds, it's physics! But, yes, I amazed at how good this thing is stock. If you want to get in to modding up a good platform for cheap, look no further. Review: Really fun RC Truck - This is my 2nd RC truck after a long period out of the hobby. It is really well made and exceeded my expectations in every way! It is faster than I expected, although I wanted a "rock crawler" type of truck, this one can really move. I am simply having a blast, running on gravel, street and dirt. I don't think you can go wrong with one of these. The only upgrade will be to buy a longer or higher mah battery. The one that comes with it is fine and I get 30-40 minutes from it easily. Sometimes, I simply want it run it an hour. That is a very low cost upgrade. I also noted there are many add-on parts, so a person could upgrade this vehicle if you wanted to. Best bang for the buck I have found! Buy one! ## Features - 50km/h high speed. 2.4G remote radio control, the control distance is up to about 100m. - The structure includes frame, cockpit, shock absorbers and motors are super strong. Four huge anti-slip wheels connected by shockproof springs are terribly stable. - Wheels are made from reinforced and elastic rubber, making the car suitable for rugged usage on any types of ground surfaces. - 4 wheel drive system for superior handling and control. Rechargeable battery is available for longer playtime. - 7.4V 1500mAh Li-ion Battery provide powerful drive to the car, that up to 32MPH(50KM/H) high speed racing. It bear 10-20 minuter continue play. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07XJ2Z5CJ | | Additional Features | Rechargeable | | Age Range Description | Kid | | Battery Description | Lithium-Ion | | Best Sellers Rank | #267,977 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #519 in Hobby RC Trucks | | Brand Name | GoolRC | | Color | Black, Green | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 275 Reviews | | Included Components | '1/12 RC car, 2.4G transmitter, 7.4V 1500mAh lithium battery, Charger, Tool set, English manual' | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Item Weight | 2.4 kg | | Manufacturer | GoolRC | | Manufacturer Part Number | ECJ7070736449243TF | | Manufacturer recommended age | 16 years and up | | Material Type | PVC, Rubber | | Maximum Speed | 31.07 miles_per_hour | | Model Name | 12428 | | Model Number | 12428 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Number of Players | 1 | | Operation Mode | Remote Control | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Scale | 1:12 Scale | | Set Name | Single | | Size | 1/12 scale | | Subject Character | Bear | | Theme | Car, Off-Road | | Toy Vehicle Form | Car | ## Images ![WLtoys 12428 RC Car - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61efLWHmXdL.jpg) ![WLtoys 12428 RC Car - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71pfOVujw1L.jpg) ![WLtoys 12428 RC Car - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hMqH0ElqL.jpg) ![WLtoys 12428 RC Car - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QY9usUsvL.jpg) ![WLtoys 12428 RC Car - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XHhWTNgZL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What does the mode button on the controler 1 through 4 do?** A: I have 12428 but there's only a power switch and 2 knobs for steering and throttle. A friend also has the same transmitter although his car has plastic gears mine came with all metal gears. So I really don't know. **Q: Can this be upgraded to last longer and go faster?** A: I upgraded the battery only and got a lot more torque and speed and battery time. I can get 30-40 mins easy using a 7.4 2000mah **Q: Can I use a 7.4V 5000 mAh battery in it?** A: I use a 7.4v 2000 and it makes me a tad uncomfortable because it heats up however it doesn’t go into thermal protection (if it even has one). I get a good half hour out of that. Because it gets so hot I’d personally say maybe use a smaller one. **Q: Cuando llegaria a bogota y podrian enviarmen una bateria extra?** A: También soy de Colombia y me llegó en 12 días. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's Everything Every Review Said It Was. *by A***S on July 3, 2021* I don't know whether to write a novel or a short paragraph saying: JUST BUY IT, ALREADY.

For the price it is a fast and tough buggy. *by J***N on January 3, 2026* This is not a crawler, it is fast and durable. My 10 year old daughter loves it, for the price it is a great RC car that is a lot of fun. Recommend getting a spare battery to keep the fun going longer. I have the HBX Protector and this Buggy is my daughters. We race them on the track I built in my yard and both perform very well. ## Frequently Bought Together - GoolRC WLtoys 12428 RC Car, 1/12 Scale 4WD 50km/h High Speed RC Rock Crawler, 2.4Ghz Remote Control Off Road Truck for Adults & Kids - Blomiky 2 Pack 7.4V 1500mAh 40C Lipo 11.1Wh Rechargeable Battery T Plug and USB Charger Cable Suitable for 9005E 300E 302E 9155 9156 and WLtoys A979-B 12428 4WD RC Trucks /12428 Battery 2 Pack - 2PCS Treehobby Aluminum Alloy Universal Rear Drive Shaft Upgrade Accessories Compatible with Wltoys 12428 Fly fy-03 1/12 RC Car Desert Falcon CVD Universal Joint --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/174663439-wltoys-12428-rc-car](https://www.desertcart.is/products/174663439-wltoys-12428-rc-car) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-10-17*
