Fast and Furious
While you're not behind the driver's seat, the transmitter puts you in full control of this stunt vehicle. Two driving controls that slide forward and backward are all it takes to propel and tweak the Stunt Psycho through its tricks. The left and right buttons each control only the wheels on their side, allowing you to make quick turns and high-speed tornado spins. Sliding both controls at once sets the Psycho going fast in forward or reverse -- and even faster when you press the yellow turbo button on the top right of the remote controller.

With a durable, hard plastic body, and fast-spinning, flexible wheels, this remote-control vehicle is built to handle multi-terrain stunts. A low-to-the-ground design and wings on top help the Stunt Psycho turn flips, spin, and keep its balance when popping wheelies. Made with a monster look, the Stunt Psycho has light-up eyes to assist you in navigating the terrain.

Turn Tricks From the Get-Go
Losing control is part of the enjoyment of the Stunt Psycho. It's easy to begin flipping the vehicle without really trying. The car sometimes gets stuck upside down and you have to turn it over by hand. Most of the time -- with enough space -- driving it in the opposite direction, and then quickly reversing it, will fix the problem.

Performing a tornado spin is a two-step process. You first need to pop a wheelie -- get the vehicle to stand on its back two wheels -- before getting the Stunt Psycho to spin. With some time and practice, anyone can become an expert at all the moves.

While this vehicle is made to handle indoor and outdoor terrains, it works best on firm, flat surfaces, like wood, carpet, and cement. The Stunt Psycho should not be driven through water, sand, or snow. The vehicle should be switched off when you're done playing, and remove the batteries from the remote when not in use.

What's in the Box
Remote-control vehicle (red) and transmitter/controller.




The light-up eyes enhances the monster look, but this features delivers double-duty and helps you navigate terrain in the dark.

5 out of 5 stars Great R/C car for the money   August 18, 2010
Mike
Pros: Great R/C car for the money. Very durable and does all the spins. Has a decent range to it. Can go almost anywhere inside or out. Can convert to a Nimh battery instead of AA's. Easy to use controller.

Cons: The plastic tab on the back of the controller doesn't stay on very well when using the controller. The turbo button is not located in a user friendly spot, and it doesn't really spin the R/C car supper fast like I thought it would.

I have had this toy for 2 weeks now and I was pleasently surprised that my 2.5 year old can controller it fairly well. It's range isn't too bad and it is very durable. The wheels keep the car from getting hit so the receiver doesn't go out which I have had with another R/C model. Overall this toy is very cool and looks cool with the light up eyes, the spins that it can perform, and the overall terrain it can traverse.

We had the first one break when my 5-year-old drove it down the stairs. (This seems to be the only don't-do with this truck.) Other than that, we have had a great time with it. Three months after the holidays, we still play with it several times a week. I recommend buying one of the 9.6V 2000mAh NiMH High Capacity Battery Packs to go with it. We get about 45 minutes out of it on a single charge.

I purchased these cars for my boys (ages: 8 & 10) for Christmas. They had a lot of fun with them and the cars run over almost everything.

Overall, this is an amazing rc car....my husband and I ran out an entire set of batteries before we even gave it to our nephew as a gift!


5 out of 5 stars Psycho Toy is awesome   February 1, 2010
MI Mom (Michigan, USA)
The Stunt Psycho is great! Very powerful and durable. One thing to keep in mind, the red and the green run on different frequencies. So if you want two together buy one red and one green. Price point is less than half of Big Box Toy store. Our boys love them, 5 & 7.Great product, great price, great vendor.
