4WD Off-Road RC Truck with Built-In Wi-Fi Camera and Phone Stand
Premium Gift · Toys & Hobby
An RC truck that shows you the drive from the driver's seat
A chunky four-wheel-drive off-roader with a camera mounted on the roll cage. Clip a phone to the remote and you see what the truck sees, live.

Alloy body on big treaded tyres, with a camera that streams to a phone or tablet.

A camera on the roll cage
The camera sits on top of the cab, looking forward. It connects to a smartphone or tablet so you can watch the drive in real time.
Buttons on the remote take a photo or start a video recording, so the best run of the afternoon can be kept.

Phone on the remote, eyes on the screen
The remote has a phone stand. Drive by watching the truck, or drive by watching the screen, the way you would with a drone.
There's a fast and a slow mode on the remote, which helps when someone new takes the controls.

Tyres made for dirt, grass and sand
Four big treaded tyres and coil springs on each corner let it climb. The maker shows it taking slopes of around 45 degrees, and running on rock, grass and sand.
It measures 20.5 x 14 x 12.5cm and weighs 620g, so it has some heft to it.

Boxing Day in a Perth backyard
The wrapping paper is in the recycling and the cricket is on the radio. Someone sets up a course over the lawn: a ramp off the retaining wall, a run under the trampoline.
Everyone crowds round the phone to watch the camera view as the truck noses through the garden bed. Twenty minutes later the battery is flat, and it's back on the charger for round two.

Charging and run time
A 3.7V 500mAh rechargeable battery comes in the box with a charging cable. A charge takes about 120 minutes and gives about 20 minutes of driving.
A small screwdriver is included for the battery cover.
