review – My kids are now old enough to use tablets and all kinds of electronics. They like remote control robots, cars, etc. I’ve bought them some smaller rc cars and trucks over the years with the promise that when they grow up, I’ll buy them a bigger car/truck. I may be getting one this Christmas, but I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to review this DEERC 9300 rc car/truck. Let’s see if we like it!

Design and Features
feature
- 2021 new 1:8 large size remote control car: This 1:8 oversized monster truck is a great value for money, and its sheer size makes it stand out. It comes with a realistic interior and replaceable rear tires. Its powerful performance makes this RC car an ideal toy for boys, girls and adults.
- Strong power brings exciting off-road climbing experience: The 4WD RC off-road vehicle is equipped with a steering motor and 2 powerful front and rear built-in power motors that work together for extra power. The upgraded large wear-resistant tire adopts a special thread design tread, which increases the friction between the tire and the ground, the grip is stronger, and the climbing angle reaches an astonishing 60°!
- Durable ATV: Independent suspension springs are installed on all four wheels, making the body more flexible and buffering the impact of uneven roads on the body frame. It also protects the body’s internal electronics. DE60 has been tested at a professional drop height of 2 meters and can adapt to extreme terrain. The sleek, rugged alloy body and hard-wearing nylon chassis let you conquer almost any terrain.
- Hobby Grade RC Trucks for Kids and Adults: The monster truck has a sensitive wireless remote control system that can flexibly control the vehicle at 2.4Ghz frequency. The controller provides a stable signal with a control distance of approximately 230 feet and has a non-disturbing feature that allows multiple vehicles to play simultaneously. Sensitive steering and throttle control the car to burst out strong power torque, allowing the car to easily complete difficult maneuvers.
- Incredible battery life: Equipped with 2 professional 7.4V, 1200mh upgraded LIPO batteries, each battery can be used for about 40 minutes. You can enjoy driving for about 80 minutes (depending on terrain and handling). Note that the rear tires need to be installed manually when you receive the DE60)

The truck is beautifully packaged and well packaged.
The truck is well designed and made of plastic/ABS. It features big wheels, spring dampers and even 2 drivers in the cab. At the back, there’s a mounted spare wheel, and below that is the battery compartment, power switch, and trim controls.
The remote is plastic and has speed, direction and power controls.
Performance
The first thing I did was follow the instructions to charge the battery for at least 6 hours. I have the spare tire mounted on the back while the battery is charging.
The side compartment of the remote holds 2 AA batteries.
Under the truck, there is a battery compartment and a power switch. The next step is to install the rechargeable battery. There’s also a trim control below near the front. I don’t have to adjust trim.
Here’s a video of my kids playing with the truck indoors (it’s too cold outside). It’s their first time and they can’t fully control it :-):
We finally got good enough weather so the kids had fun playing this truck outdoors:
what do I like
- Design and Build Quality
- Paint Colors and a Rugged Look
- Damping system
- easy to control
- proper speed
- 2 batteries
- Run time per battery
- pure fun
what would i change
- I’m not sure about scaling, but I think a 1:8 scale would be a lot bigger
final thoughts
I’ve only played with the smaller model before getting the DEERC DE60 Large 1:8 Scale Upgraded RC Truck for review. Large in size, this model is fun indoors and out. It’s well built and works well. It may take a hit, but it will keep going. Also, I don’t need to trim the steering. It works out of the box. My kids love this toy. My only problem is having two kids and I may have to buy a second one now. Super fun! !
