Nikko Turbo Panther X2 - Review

[@AlexiaVon]

Nikko velocitrax is pretty well made Fast Traxx clone. It'd built really well. This panther 2 looks abit wobbly put together and slow

[@danreynolds7894]

Clearly lesser quality than old school Nikko but, still better than most modern toy grade cars. Nice Review.

[@Xbell-The-Road-Rippers-Expert]

Now this is a fantastic review of the Nikko RC Panther, I saw another vid of another Panther from sombody else and it was horrible because they did bad disrespectful stuff to the Vehicle.. You've just gained a sub bro, keep up the amazing RC videos!!

[@MartyHansen]

[@dagblix6146]

[@MartyHansen]

Thanks! Wow the price has really gone up! 😮

[@yosegaman]

[@MartyHansen]

Cool, that’s a good deal! Thanks!

[@jerrysmith7166]

[@mianvlogs2799]

[@iqide863]

To sacrifice my own life for pakistan

[@HAIRYMAN-13]

1980s one was so much better looking

[@MartyHansen]

Agreed.

[@diogofidalgo2202]

I wonder if my grandmother still have mine. Should love to recover it

[@ACeperienceRC]

Awesome RC, subscribed bro

[@manonrouyer2541]

Good morning! do you recommend this model for an 8 year old child?

[@MartyHansen]

Absolutely! It’s a great RC for kids just starting out!

[@erictigges7389]

I recently rescued one of these and would really love to give it a second lease on life. It unfortunately didn't come with a controller. Do you think I could just buy a generic 2.4 Ghz controller and get it to pair with the car?

[@MartyHansen]

I can sell you my controller. My Turbo Panther stopped working after I drove it through some mud puddles. I threw out the car but kept the controller.

[@erictigges7389]

I'll take it, what is the best way to contact you?

[@aliabuabdulah9689]

@@MartyHansen no no no it did not stop working the same thing happened to me i drove it in the rain it stopped working it did not connect it turns out that it shuts down the antenna and the circuit board automatically to not fry the engine and battery i kept the heat on it for 24 hours to make sure the internals dry so it can detect no water in so the antenna turns on and the next day i was hopeless BUT IT WORKED so what you did is a waste of money why you throw it away in the first place didn't you read the owners manual

[@MartyHansen]

@@aliabuabdulah9689 That’s great you got yours to work again. I did not read the owner’s manual. However, I did let the car sit in my house for a month in hopes the circuit board would dry out and work again. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case.

[@gregorslegoworkshop]

Hey, what is the capacity of this 9.6V battery?

[@MartyHansen]

800mAh

[@tonylyons2414]

Brought my son this today for Christmas,took it out for 10/15 min but as he was playing with in indoors “driving slow” it just stopped working,like you here the motor going but the actual car doesn’t move,iv turned both controller of and the car and will leave for 10/15 min and see what happens,anyone had this

[@MartyHansen]

Make sure the gear box on the back didn’t pop into the neutral position. It should be either all the way in high gear or all the way in low gear.

[@salmansh8]

Is this digital proportional?

[@MartyHansen]

It has proportional throttle and steering.

[@arrmo3420]

Hi why in low gear is better?

[@MartyHansen]

High gear puts the car under more load and will cause the circuit board to overheat and shut off. In low gear it doesn’t do that.

[@arrmo3420]

Thanks man ! Chears!

[@Tomaso-TheGreat]

Abit crappy compared to the 80's nikko stuff

[@rewind9536]

Can buy it for 100 euro on sale. Hmm.

[@MartyHansen]

Buy it!

[@martinfrnaco6752]

Nada como los Nikko antiguos, ahora son basura y feos.

[@oriontoshiba]

Does it have a turbo function.?

[@MartyHansen]

No turbo function like the old ones did.
