Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, the Smyter DT is a Ready to Run model, meaning it comes fully assembled and charged straight from the box—no building or technical knowledge required. However, you may want to read the manual for basic operation and maintenance tips before your first run.
The box includes the truck, 7.4V 1500mAh Li-Ion battery, USB charger, 2.4GHz radio transmitter, and LED lights (roof light pre-fitted, front lights included but require customer installation). You'll only need AA batteries for the transmitter and a USB power source to charge the vehicle battery.
The product includes a USB charger for convenient charging, though exact charge times aren't specified—refer to the manual for precise timing. Battery runtime varies based on driving style and terrain, but typical Li-Ion batteries of this capacity usually provide 15–30 minutes of active driving.
1/12 scale means the truck is 1/12th the size of a real vehicle, making it a compact, portable model suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Exact dimensions aren't listed, but 1/12 scale trucks are typically around 25–30cm in length and fit easily in a backpack.
The truck features splashproof electronics and a protective gear cover, so puddles and wet grass won't damage it, though you should avoid full submersion. The 4WD shaft drive, adjustable suspension, servo saver, and reinforced construction are designed to handle crashes, jumping, and bashing, making it tough for rough outdoor play.
