Ordered flishrc cobra. Communication was great. Ordered larger batteries but they were the wrong size. Olly shipped the right batteries and gave a refund for the difference I paid. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks for the help with the order.

The seller knew I was after one and very kindly informed me when they came back into stock so now have a Flywing Bell 206. Fantastic bit of kit. Well worth the wait.

About this product
Take your RC driving to the next level with the ZD Racing RX12, a 1/12 scale brushless drift and rally car designed for speed, durability, and precision control. With a powerful brushless system and 3S LiPo capability, the RX12 can reach speeds of up to 80 km/h, while its electronic gyro ensures smooth drifting and stable handling on every run.
Built for Performance
The RX12 is powered by a 2845 3600KV brushless motor paired with a 35A ESC, delivering explosive acceleration and reliable performance. The 4WD drivetrain, drift-tuned tyres, and planetary gear differentials filled with silicone oil give you maximum traction and control whether you’re racing or drifting.
Durable Alloy Chassis
A 2 mm aluminium alloy chassis plate combined with 3 mm T6061 alloy shock towers provides the strength needed for high-speed racing. Independent suspension and oil-filled long-stroke shocks keep the car stable across a variety of surfaces, while front and rear LED lights add both style and visibility.
Precision Control
Equipped with a 2.4 GHz 6-channel radio system and a waterproof 11 kg metal-gear steering servo, the RX12 responds quickly and accurately to every input. With long-range control and stability assistance from the onboard gyro, it’s easy to master both straight-line speed and controlled drifts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, the RX12 is suitable for beginners thanks to its electronic gyro stability system and ready-to-run design, though it's also capable enough for experienced drivers. The 2.4 GHz radio with long-range control and the gyro assistance make it forgiving to learn on, whilst still offering room to progress.
The RX12 is 3S LiPo ready, meaning it requires a 3S LiPo battery (not included). As an RTR model, the car comes fully assembled with radio, servo, and ESC pre-installed; check the product listing or manual for the complete contents of your box.
The RX12 reaches speeds of up to 80 km/h when powered by a 3S LiPo battery, thanks to its 2845 3600KV brushless motor and 35A ESC.
1/12 scale means the RX12 is 1/12th the size of a full-size car. Whilst exact dimensions aren't listed, 1/12 scale RC cars typically measure around 30–35 cm in length, making them compact enough for indoor or outdoor use.
The RX12 features an electronic gyro for drift stability, drift-tuned tyres, and planetary gear differentials filled with silicone oil to manage wheel slip smoothly. These components work together to provide the balance and control needed for controlled drifting on both rally and drift surfaces.
