Overview

The UDI Amphicyon Brushless RC Drift Car is a high-performance 1/16 scale 4WD vehicle designed for both drift and racing enthusiasts. This version features a potent 3900KV brushless motor and ESC system, providing greatly improved speed, acceleration, and efficiency. The brushless motor also offers longer runtimes and requires less maintenance. The Amphicyon boasts a robust construction, including a durable PVC bodyshell, metal bulkhead tie bars, and a one-piece cast chassis. High-speed bearings throughout the vehicle improve transmission efficiency and reduce wear.

This package is designed to grow with you. The 2.4GHz transmitter features a speed switch, allowing new drivers to start at a slower, more manageable pace. This combines perfectly with the integrated ESP (Electronic Stability Program) gyro, which actively corrects the car's yaw to help you master drifting. As your skills improve, you can turn up the speed and dial down the gyro's sensitivity, unlocking the car's full 48km/h potential. The Amphicyon comes ready-to-run with two full sets of tyres – high-grip racing tyres and hard-compound drift tyres – so you can choose your driving style. With waterproof electronics, a 7.4V 1200mAh LiPo battery providing 15-minute runtimes, and a USB charger, this is a complete package for mastering high-speed driving.

Note

Please refer to the instruction manual for specific waterproof standards, safety precautions, and operating instructions.
