Just when you think you have seen it all in the remote control toy world, something new comes along. RC planes, cars, helicopters and drones? Of course, they are old hat by now. RC boats, sure - not as many on the market, but definitely not new. RC tanks, yep, we have reviewed those as well.
What we have not reviewed is an RC tank, that transforms into an RC boat...until today. Introducing the Air Hogs Thunder Trax ($74.99 retail).
Please watch out full video review of the Air Hogs Thunder Trax -
Don't Let A Little Water Stop the RC Fun
As the video shows, the Thunder Trax easily handles shifts in terrain. Drive over the rocks and mud by a lake and then power right into the lake and transform into a boat with the push of a button.
In our testing, the Thunder Trax handled most terrains with relative ease. Sure, in boat mode it is not going to set any speed records, but just the fact that you can drive into a pool as a tank and then transform into a boat, is plenty fun!
Key Features of the Air Hogs Thunder Trax
- Tackle different terrains in any location during any season - including sand, snow, grass, gravel, mud, and water.
- 2.4GHz radio communications for precise, long-range control.
- Transforms from tank to boat with the push of a button.
- Thunder Trax is for ages 8+. Requires 3 AA batteries (not included).
At $75, the Air Hogs Thunder Trax is not an inexpensive toy, but if your child wants an RC Boat and an RC Tank, it can serve as two gifts in one!
