Poor toy don't waste your time

Muy buen juguete, tiene velocidad y la cámara se conecta muy fácil wi-fi a un excelente precio

This RC car is a really fun and impressive toy—super fast and comes with a built-in camera, which adds a great touch. I bought it mainly to explore hard-to-reach areas, like under my house. Out of the box, it performs well, but I did make a few custom modifications to suit my needs. The original tires didn’t handle dirt well, so I added screws for better traction. I also installed LED lights for visibility and extended the antenna to improve the signal range while using it in the crawl space. After the upgrades, it worked exactly as I needed. Great value for DIY enthusiasts or anyone who wants to get creative with their RC experience.

It is my second purchase from DEERC. The first one was DEERC DE45, and it exceeded my expectation and was an excellent purchase. Unfortunately, after a little more than a month of play, DE45 got a direct hit by a basketball, and some parts of the suspension broke. So when I started looking for a replacement toy for my kids and myself :), I decided to go with the DEERC product based on my previous experience. I bought DEERC DE36W because it has a variable throttle control and a camera. When it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by how hefty this RC car is and how much power and torque it has. Racing it using the included remote control is a blast for any kid or adult. You can do some pretty slick tricks with it, such as J-turns at full speed and other maneuvers that are usually not doable on cheaper RC models. Camera and phone control is pretty much a gimmick. I knew it when I was buying this car, and my expectation was pretty low. After all, a good video camera like GoPro costs $400 for a reason. So if you have realistic expectations, you won't be disappointed. Don't expect to get excellent footage driving at full speed on pavement or another uneven surface. But it will work fine at home on an even surface like hardwood slowly sneaking up on a pet or a family member. Fun! The phone application is not very reliable and doesn't always connect, but you can expect video on your phone for about 20 feet (Wi-Fi range) when it does. So, if you plan to have a great race outdoors using included remote and connect it to the phone for slow crawling taking video inside your home, you will not be disappointed.

UPDATE 12-16-19: In full transparency, the company reached out to me about the issues with the privacy of the app and the car I received and went above and beyond to make things right. At the time of my original review I was using the android app and have recently switched to IOS. The company stated it was an issue with the app and that the app had been updated. I can confirm for IOS the app appears to be working properly and does NOT ask for microphone access. Also, I stated in my original review I was having issues connecting to the camera. Before writing this update I have used the new camera repeatedly by turning off and on connecting and disconnecting from the WI-FI multiple times with the camera working properly each time. Also, I mentioned in my previous review, but I thought it was worth mentioning again. I was pleasantly surprised of the video quality of the camera. I was expecting the video to be very grainy, but very surprised how good the video quality actually was. So for the new car has been working great and look forward to more fun times with it. The RC car itself worked fine, but the biggest issue is the camera and your privacy. I purchased this to drive under the crawlspace of my house. I thought it would be a good way to inspect without having to crawl under the house, but there were problems from day one and it was the camera. 1.) Phone App wants Microphone access, but does not record sound - You have to download an app (android in my case) to operate the camera and you can also control the car via the app. Once the app is installed and launched it forces you to give the app microphone access. The camera does not record sound and there is not reason for microphone access to be granted. I tried denying microphone access and the app would not work with out it. This is a huge privacy concern. 2.) The camera worked 3 out of 10 times - If you can connect to the camera and stay connected to the camera the actual quality is not that bad. After several attempts the camera would not stay connected even after rebooting the phone several times and connecting on and off to the RC Car's Wi-FI. I use my phone with other apps with camera interface like DJI, GoPro, Canon Camera and others that connect through a Wi-FI signal and no issues except this camera. Overall, the car itself isn't bad, but my issues with it was mostly the camera and app. The app may be a different for IOS, but after so many failed attempts with the camera not connecting to the app and the even larger issue with forcing microphone access it simply was worth it to me and I had to return it. In full transparency, the company reached out to me about my issues with the privacy of the app and the car I received. At the time of my original review I was using the android app and have recently switched to IOS. The company said it was an issue with the app and that the app had been updated. I can confirm for IOS the app did NOT ask for any access to my microphone and it appears to have been fixed. Also, I stated in my original review I was having issues connecting to the camera.

Bought it in July to use for looking under my house. I used it three times to practice learning how to control it. The steering quit working as I was going to put it under the house. It is too late to return. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS. I tried recharging and swapping out batteries. I have tried using the app and the handheld remote. I was thinking of opening it up to see if I could see a loose wire, but it seems like they designed it to make it a pain to get into. DO NOT PURCHASE.
