Saw this on an article at CNET. Its the Traxxas XO-1 that’s guaranteed to go 100 mph (160.93 kph). More info could be found at the XO-1’s product page. Traxxas is known for producing a lot of great competition grade RC’s and they’ve been in the business for a long time already.

Update: My suspicions were correct, it was indeed the charger plug that was defective. Read on below to see how I was able to fix the problem.
My son got an early Christmas gift from his grandmother, which was a Dream Machine: Eagle Blade. Its one of those China made R/C helicopters that you see in the mall as well as for sale in Alibaba. I’ve always wanted one but never got to buying one because of its steep price (around $80). I’m very thankful that I didn’t plunk down any cash for this as things didn’t really go as planned in terms of enjoying this toy. This toy is recommended for kids 8 years or older, but as with any RC toy, check first if your kid has the proper dexterity and fine-motor skills to control an RC toy.

Hobby Link Japan just announced a sale on Tamiya Products that could have a discount of anywhere between 25% to 60%. I could say that Tamiya is the Toyota of model kit builders. They make kits that fit very well and they’ve been in the business long enough already to make them an icon.
