There had to be something wrong with it, right? Something to complain about. Something. Anything.THE PURCHASEI bought the Hailstorm about a year ago and had loved it until the ESC stopped working so it was exciting to see that the 18859 which is the latest monster truck version had come out. I didn't know all the differences until I took delivery and was pretty surprised by all the upgrades from the previous version.WHAT'S NEWUpon opening the box, I found 1 battery with the transmitter. To my surprise, the car itself had another battery! Two batteries included with this. Not only that, but I almost overlooked the fact that Haiboxing now includes a LiPo battery! Typically budget vehicles get shipped with Li-Ion batteries. The usual mod people do is to simply replace it with a new Li-Po, so it's pretty cool that HBX included in the Li-Po to start with!The CVD's are metal! Yup, the last version was plastic and metal was an upgrade part. They're now included FREE! Camber has 3 adjustment holes for those that like to tinker with that sort of thing. Suspension still aren't oil filled, but now preload can be adjusted. The top arm on each corner are now beefed up. Pretty significant difference. Overall, the rig is also wider. Body itself is also longer than the previous version. Most may not have noticed but the outdrive cups are a metal band providing further structural support. It's all in the details.All these improvements makes for a more durable and better performing car. In fact, I ran this over selveral times for fun with my much heavier Arrma Big Rock which is a 1/10 scale monster truck and the 18859 did just fine. Kept on trucking (pun intended). Impressed that HBX went this far with their latest version of the 1/18 scale car w/o increasing the price. Thank you!DRIVING CHARACTERISTICSFirst off, it's quiet! Way quiet. Maybe the last one was this quiet, but compared to some of the other cars I have, this is whisper quiet. The turning radius is tight. Surprisingly tight. So tight in fact that you can bust a donut from a standstill. No need to run it hard, turn one direction to gain the momentum, then turn it hard in the opposite direction to initiate the donut like you'd normally have to do.There's not enough torque to perform a wheelie, but that's not expected of a 2S budget RC car, particularly of this scale. Enough power to get some good speed with this though.PACKAGINGNicely packaged as always. Not sure who's responsibility it was but my Amazon box did come damaged and the exterior of the HBX box inside was also damaged. No damage to the contents so nothing to complain about, but something I did experience on my personal purchase of the 18859.DECALSThis deserves its own category b/c HBX actually provided two sets of headlights and two sets of tail lights! Pick and choose your favorite! I ended up using the unused set on another car which further improved the aesthetics of that one so thanks again HBX.OVERALLVery satisfied with this. Budget cars aren't supposed to be this good. I wasn't even ready to say all this. Was expecting it to be slightly better than mediocre as the reputation of HBX is pretty good but there are a lot of improvements in this iteration of the 18859 to make this almost like a new car. Remember how far the Toyota Camry has come since back in the day? It's like that but HBX style.WHO IS THIS FOR?I don't doubt it's durability, particularly with the wider stance, thicker chassis and thicker arms. Truly a hobby grade rc car with a budget conscious price. If you like to mod cars, you have that option with the 18859. Upgrade to oil filled shocks. Install some adjustable turn buckles. Great for kids too b/c it has a slow mode feature. Adjust between slow and normal for developing drivers to novice. I think this is the perfect car if you're a parent looking to get a car for both yourself and your kid but only plan on getting one vehicle to share. Best of both worlds.

This little beast is incredibly fast, reaching speeds of up to 36km/h, which is great for both indoor and outdoor adventures.The truck's 4X4 capabilities make it ideal for off-road driving. I’ve taken it on grass, gravel, and even a bit of mud, and it handled everything like a pro. The powerful motors and high-torque tires give it excellent traction, and it can easily climb over obstacles like small rocks or curbs. It’s fun to watch it power through terrain that other RC trucks would struggle with.The build quality is fantastic for the price. The body and suspension are robust, able to withstand the occasional crash or bump without breaking apart.

The suspension system is great, absorbing impacts well and keeping the truck stable even at high speeds.In terms of control, the remote is responsive, and the steering is precise. The truck has great maneuverability, allowing for sharp turns and quick direction changes, even at high speeds. I appreciate the fact that it comes with two batteries, which is great for extending playtime. Charging is quick, and I can usually get about 20-25 minutes of fun per battery.Overall, the **HAIBOXING RC Monster Truck** is a solid choice for anyone looking for a fast, durable, and fun remote-controlled truck.

Fast. AWD. 2 batteries.Handles grass no problem, has enough power to drift/donut . built very sturdy, i like how the pair button is on the side , not under the plastic. run time probably around 20 min on flat ground/ pavement (per battery).Keep your instruction manual in the tool box, it has very detailed pics and exploded views of how the RC is constructed and detailed parts list and numbers for replacements
