THESE THINGS ARE VERY COOL BUT THEY ARE SOMEWHAT FRAGILE AND ALSO HAVE A VOLTAGE DESIGN ISSUE IN WHICH THE BATTERIES CAN DROP BELOW THRESHOLD VOLTAGE AND YOU WOULD NEED TO HAVE A PRO SOLDER IN A REPLACEMENT BATTERY!
NOTE THIS PLEASE. SORRY - BUT IT JUST TAKES TOO MUCH OF OUR OWN TIME TO REPAIR THESE.
Pirouette on a Dime
That's the beauty of differential thrust vehicles, give one track reverse and the other forward thrust and BOOM, your spinning in place.
But you don't need to know how to drive a tank to drive _this_ tank. The 3 mixing modes allow you to optionally "mix" the left and right throttles together to give you fluid control that you don't need to think about, it just works.
4 User Selectable Frequencies
The Micro Rover has 4 user selectable frequencies that allow up to 4 friends can play at the same time, who can climb to the Top of that stack of files first? The ability to change the operating frequency at any time allows you to play with friends at a moments notice and not worry about interference from other users.
Unbelievably Small
It's amazing how small and compact this miniature tank is, yet it's packed with neat features. Unlike many cheap toys that have all or nothing controls, you can control the motors with precision speed controls. Creep along at a snails pace, or put the coal to 'er and rip around your desktop at speeds that seem unsafe.
8 tiny LED's make this little crawler really light up! 2 headlights with High/Low Beams light the way for under the couch reconnaissance missions. The fire button on the top of the transmitter triggers the Laser sounds and lights.
3 User Selectable Mix Modes
"Standard Mix Mode" Left stick controls the master throttle rate. Moving the Left stick to the left causes the Micro Rover to fire its laser, moving it to the Right will toggle the LED headlights The Right stick controls turning.
"Tank Style Mixing" (Middle position of the switch) The Left joystick controls the Left Motor forward and backwards direction and speed. The Right joystick controls the Right Motor forward and backwards direction and speed.
"Robot Style Mixing" (Rightmost position of the switch) The Right joystick controls the master throttle when the stick is moved forwards and back, and stick movement to the left and right controls your steering to the left and right.
