Hosim 1/10 RC Car Brushless Monster Truck - 62+ KMH Top Speed

Our review of the Hosim 1/10 RC Monster Truck finds it best suited to hobbyists and adults who want a durable, highspeed RTR truck for offroad play; the single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a 2212 3540KV brushless motor and a 60A brushless ESC that delivers a genuine max speed of 62+ KMH (38+ MPH) while remaining upgradeable and dependable. This truck arrives ready to run with two 1500mAh batteries for long sessions and a beefy metal drivetrain designed specifically for heavy use and rough terrain.

Key Features

• Brushless Extreme Speed: The 2212 3540KV brushless motor paired with a 60A brushless ESC provides very high top speed and efficient power conversion for sustained highspeed runs.
• Dual Batteries: Two 1500mAh batteries deliver more than 40 minutes of combined playtime so drivers can stay on track longer between charges.
• Allmetal Drivetrain: Steel steering links, alloy arms, dogbones and universal joints give the truck durability for aggressive bashing and heavy use.
• Robust Suspension: Four aluminum shocks and large trailing arms provide reliable offroad handling across sand, grass, puddles and moderate climbs.
• Responsive Radio: A 2.4GHz transmitter with 80m range and two speed modes (full and half) offers low latency control and an easy learning curve for beginners.
• Waterproof Electronics: The waterproof design protects the motor and electronics for confident driving in wet conditions and puddles.

Who It's For

The Hosim 1/10 RC Monster Truck is ideal for adult hobbyists and experienced beginners who want a readytorun vehicle that handles high speeds and rough terrain without immediate upgrades. Enthusiasts who value a metal drivetrain and long runtime will appreciate its durability and the included dual batteries for extended sessions.

Families and casual users who want a very lightweight or lowspeed toy should look elsewhere; although a half speed mode is available for learning, the truck is built for performance and slightly larger scale handling. Competitive racers seeking a tracktuned chassis may also prefer a more specialized racing model.
