Frequently Asked Questions
The Datsun 240Z Apex 2 Sport RTR is a ready-to-run model designed for enthusiasts rather than absolute beginners. It features adjustable suspension and active rear toe adjustment, which means you'll benefit from some basic RC knowledge to get the most from it, though it's certainly manageable for someone willing to learn.
You'll need to purchase a NiMH or LiPo Shorty battery separately, along with a compatible charger and four AA batteries for the transmitter. The car itself includes the RTR chassis, transmitter, receiver and bodywork—everything except the power sources.
At 1:10 scale, the Datsun 240Z measures 458mm long, 200mm wide and has a 259mm wheelbase, making it a mid-sized touring car suitable for gardens, parks and indoor spaces with reasonable room. It's smaller than many full-size RC buggies but large enough to handle rough terrain.
The car is powered by a Reedy 550 15-turn brushed motor paired with an SC500X ESC, delivering responsive acceleration and top-end speed. The 4WD system with sealed differentials and protected centre driveline provides reliable all-terrain performance.
It features independent front and rear A-arm suspension with threaded oil-filled shocks for smooth handling across varied terrain. The active rear toe adjustment allows you to fine-tune grip and handling characteristics to suit different driving conditions.
