I've wanted one of these for quite some time and I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger, because this little buggy did not disappoint. Out of the box it's pretty fun and it handles incredibly well, adjusting the dual rate makes a big difference. I am currently driving it on a tight course taped out on low pile carpet in my apartment. I have no intention of driving this buggy outside, it can be done but it's better suited for indoor use. The stock motor exceeded my expectations and has plenty of power and top end for a small, tight course with no jumps and with training mode enabled the stock motor is perfect for a beginner or someone new to Mini-Z. The one thing the stock motor lacks is bottom end, which makes jumping it near impossible. I made a 4" tall table top and the buggy has no problem rolling over it, but it does not have enough bottom end to even come close to clearing the table. My first upgrade will be a motor. I love this color combo and am happy to see Kyosho producing brighter bodies and wheels, just wish the wheels weren't out of stock everywhere. If you are looking for something small to run in the house then this buggy is a no brainer. Kyosho Mini-Z's have come a long way and the KT-531P transmitter that is included isn't that bad. I honestly cannot find a single thing to complain about, it's a great little buggy.
Love this little buggy. It’s a ton of fun to drive around and it can handle decent gaps on the ground as I have been running it around my driveway and inside the house with no issues. It’s quick but doesn’t feel quite as quick as the mini z rwd cars I have, but I haven’t run them side by side or anything. We are eager to get another so my son and I can do some races with them.
Great little buggy built nice and strong has a real quality look and feel and easy to use
Three verified owners all rated this Mini-Z buggy 5/5. Reviewers describe it as fun and easy to drive, with good handling that improves with dual-rate adjustment, and they praise its strong build and quality feel. One reviewer found the stock motor powerful enough for a small, tight indoor course and suitable for beginners with training mode enabled, but noted it lacks bottom-end punch. Use is mainly indoor and on driveways; one owner reported it handles small ground gaps. One reviewer felt it was slightly less quick than their rear-wheel-drive Mini-Z cars, though they did not compare them side by side. Reviews are few and short, so the picture is limited.
