Built for Speed and Rough Terrains
Blending the proven upper-body aerodynamic design qualities of incredibly fast F1 racecars with the rugged undercarriage and suspension system of an off-road dune buggy, the Titan excels both on and off road. Each pneumatic tire sports a unique tubeless rubber design that allows it to rail on smooth, flat surfaces, while at the same time giving it the ability to grip on hard, rough surfaces. Hard rubber tines cover the face of both the front and rear tires, providing the bite and traction necessary to fly on gravel or loose dirt. For the fastest possible speeds, attractive spoilers adorn the car's leading edge, sides, and rear end to help keep the car's tires continually engaged with the ground.
A chrome-plated cockpit window provides ample contrast for the Titan's blend of military-style stickers and accents. A durable push-bar style bumper is mounted in front of the front wheels to protect the car should a head-on crash occur. The handheld remote sports matching decals and accents for a perfectly mated device.
Advanced Off-Road and Remote Features
The Titan's RC handset features a time-tested handgun-style grip with a trigger and steering wheel. A single finger controls the trigger-style forward and reverse throttle, and the steering wheel offers super-realistic steering control with just one hand. A telescoping antenna is also included to enhance the car's remote range while the lightweight design of the handpiece increases user comfort and usability. There's even a red LED battery life indicator.
For youngsters just learning how to control and enjoy the Titan, a switch is located on the underbelly of the car, allowing users to choose between a high or low speed setting. This option gives parents the ability to reduce maximum speeds for children. However, on our test version, it was apparent that for some strange reason (perhaps a mis-print), the label marking the high and low speeds was incorrect; the indicated "high" speed was actually the "low" speed, and vice versa.
Remote Control Car Test Drive
After only a couple of minutes of testing the Titan on low speed, its nimble maneuvering on hardwood flooring had us quickly changing the speed to the high setting. Thirty minutes quickly flew by with non-stop high-speed turns, powerslides, and one-point turnabouts. The car's traction improved when tested on concrete sidewalks and asphalt parking lots. And even at a distance of 50 feet, the car's ample signal strength offered continual control. We even tested the Titan's front suspension by sending it into a head-on collision with a three-inch curb. The results? The suspension held up, dampening the crash and allowing the car a speedy recovery. The only performance issue we experienced with the Titan was with steep inclines; its low-torque engine is better suited for driving on flat ground, and hills proved to be a challenge. But for a first-time user of RC vehicles, we highly recommend this rough and nimble machine.
