The Thunder Trax can run on land and water, and is pretty much unstoppable.
Enjoy!

Brings back memories of RC Tycos
Because of this video, now I know how to activate aquatic mode properly. Thank you for the video Flyin' Ryan RC. That is an amazing piece of engineering.
Nice find and review Ryan.
Self-righting is always a plus, but I really liked the way it goes from water to land.
superb review as always! looks like a cool amphibious tank! it seems to do surprisingly well in water.
Yeah, slow but quite maneuverable in water. :)
5:30 RC on the road.
9:45 RC in the water.
Thank you for assisting the lazy people that don't care about all the time and effort I put into my table top review.
Flyin' Ryan RC I'm sorry if I offended you. That was not my intention and I'm certain I could have made that comment with out being rude. I do appreciate the hard work you put into making your videos. But sometimes I want to just the item being used and I'm sure others feel the same. Keep up the hard work.
It's all good. :)

Thank you
Hey Ryan, you are clearly very knowledgeable about RC stuff. Do you know what the charger cable is as I need a replacement
I like that it can go in the water
This is cool o love watching it
Nice overview Ryan, I wanted to see what you thought of it? I thinks it's really a cool inventive R/C the amphibious feature is unlike anything I've seen. I just wish the runtime was longer and the control was a little more precise like the Hypertrax. thumbs up!!
Very unique vehicle!
Super cool
*****
So how is that working out for you?
I blocked that Alain troll, so I can't see what he's saying to you, or why UA-cam even allowed him to comment on your post. He was saying that I need to "review better items", because he's obviously too dense to understand the point of a reviewer. There is just no helping some people. And, of course, he called ME the rude one when I explained to him why his comment was stupid. He also said "your [sic] so ignorent [sic]", so that really tells me a lot about his level of intelligence. heh
Flyin' Ryan RC Meh.
Still an awesome tracked vehicle really unique.
This season is seeing some more really cool RCs!
igles
Ryan, will you do a terrain twister review?
Also, any low battery warning incase you are in water with it and its out of reach?
Does pressing the amphibious button not work as a self righting mechanism? (When on ground)
Hello ..is it still working ? in many forum threads ppl says it is stopped working in 1 month..
Controls proportional for both turning and forward/backward motion?
I guess we can we get this in 2017? Thanks for the links I will check locally.
Thanks. for this introduction.
Jim
I can't recall now if the controls are proportional or not. And I'm not sure if they are still manufacturing this vehicle, but I'd imagine you should still be able to find it in stores, or at least online.
haha, it's airhogs day on all the family-friendly channels. at least this one looks like fun
Please help me what if the remote control drown in the water and cannot on the power
Who said reviewing RC stuff was a clean job? :D
Regarding self-righting while on land, perhaps you can use the "transform" function as a lever? I've seen BattleBots doing it, but maybe in this case the motor wouldn't have enough torque to lift and flip the weight of the whole vehicle.
Haha yeah, gotta get down and dirty sometimes. :) And, the transform button doesn't work at all on land, actually. Not really sure how that works. Don't know if it's some sort of sensor, or just the physics of it, or what. But it will only move those platforms when in water.
What type of charging cable does it need
What charger does it take?
I bought one yesterday and it's really cool.
How long does it take to charge and how long does it take to run the battery down?
I'm interested in getting one for christmas, also good review, thanks.
I covered that info in the review. :)
I’m buying this
Excellent review as allways Ryan :) Looks like a fun toy.
Wouldn't it have more traction (on water) with the tracks reversed you think?? :$
Cheers & have a good weekend
Yeah, I kinda wondered that too! Maybe it has TOO much grip that way, and makes the tank want to submerge? Or maybe they just had to sacrifice that to help it with a bit better grip on dry ground.
They must have considered thing on the direction I think :) Maybe to much grip / to much amp draw.. get them snagged on things..
Is it easy to swap them over? :)
DutchRC Adventures Hmm, you know, I don't think I ever tried taking them off. That would be an interesting test. :)
Yeps.. you'd think it would just work Better huh? )

Nice video man keep going like this 👍🏼😄 but 1question could you please make a review of the wltoys a979-b because its the B version and it can go realy fast like 70 kmh so please make a review of it please 😅👍🏼👌🏼
Thanks! And, no, sorry, I don't think I'll be reviewing the B version. I reviewed the A959, which is similar enough that I just don't think it would be worth my time and money to review the B version. You can get an idea of what to expect from my A959 review, but just keep in mind that it's faster, so that means shorter run times, and more possibility of broken parts.
Flyin' Ryan RC thx il go check out that one better because most of the time i skip the first part thanks for the command an information 😄😉👍🏼
What RC thing that is your fav?
You should do a review of the PowerUpFPV and see if it can fly unlike the 3.0
They have offered it to me to review, but I haven't accepted the offer, yet anyway. I'm just not really sure that's the kind of model for me, and with winter approaching, I just don't see myself having the time and weather to test it and film it. :/
Flyin' Ryan RC I ordered the power upFPV I had no luck with the power up 3.0 but I am hoping for a different result with the FPV.
Hi good review as always . Will you be doing a review on the Propel 1989 Batwing Drone from the Michael Keaton Batman Movie.
Yep! It's done and uploaded and will be published soon! It's an awesome little quad. :)
Also if u search on UA-cam for propel star wars drones. you can see a short video on them there pretty cool. But selling for way more money then the batwing drone.
Yeah, I will be doing my best to get their Star Wars quads too. But, they are not allowed to sell them in the US, so I will likely have to pay a bit more to get them from Europe somehow. They look great though!
Why can't they sell them here.
Licensing issues. From what I've heard, Air Hogs and Disney have a contract that allows only Air Hogs to sell Star Wars RCs in America. At least for now.
It's pretty fast for land and water! However it might be slowed down from the bigger body and treads
Nice ...If somebody made a hobby grade one would be neat!
I instantly thought of epoxy gluing an FPV camera onto the top of it. But getting it working with those folding parts would be tricky and getting at the power supply would be even more tricky.
Making sure the whole thing stays watertight after would be the REAL challenge though, since I would want a wet lipo even less than a drenched camera... =p
I can't get mine to self right if upside down.
If it flipped upside down on the water, would that damage it?
Nope! :)
by the way what is the cheapest rc thing you ever bought or heard about
No idea.... I've seen and owned way too many RCs to be able to recall that sort of detail. lol
nice. bought one yesterday on on black friday. looking for vids to see if it's good. cause it's my Christmas present
saw slasher43 hey I got 1 from Santa
i wonder if this would be good for retrieving flipped boats
Not likely... it's so light and small that I don't think it would be able to actually push anything in the water.
Sir his price sir the thunder Trax is owsome
Ryan, what is the run time on the Thunder Trax, im trying to see which one has a longer run time from either the Thunder Trax or Trak Attak.
I give run time in all my reviews, so you will have to watch the video for that sort of information... I don't memorize it. ;)
+Flyin' Ryan RC I have seen the whole video but you never mentioned it on the review.
I definitely did. That is something I cover in every single review I do. ;)
+Flyin' Ryan RC Alright, I will watch your review realy carefully.
Pay attention for the part where I show the battery... that is when I discuss running and charge times.
my,after sitting 2 years doesn't stop by remote control,some thing seized
Same a watter Turtle.
It's good practice till you get a Hobby Grade, Nice Review
There is no hobby grade version of anything like this though.
damn, but it's still looks fun to play with
How much it is.
you needed this to retrieve the boat you crashed a few videos ago
Haha yeah, but I doubt this little thing would've been able to push that, especially when it ran into the shore. :/
how do you know when it is fully charged
The LED will turn on or off... I forget which. That is covered in the manual, so you can check there to be sure.
Flyin' Ryan RC thanks
Flyin' Ryan RC this is my first time watching so hey
It may be better for kids and they might own it longer if slowed a little down so they don't break it
Great review!
Thanks! :)
how much?
I would be hooking a fishing rig to it and troll. LOL
if im going to name that thing i would name it turtle because it runs on the ground prety slow but not too slow and fast in the water
Good call. :)
I think Air Hogs should have focused on keeping this design strictly a Land Vehicle.
Then it wouldn't really be any different than the Hypertrax. ;)
Flyin' Ryan RC Yes, but it would be larger and perhaps without the "Transformer" marine package, I think the vehicle would have more flexability and power on land.
put wings on it and the land air and sea car thing is born
Desmond moon bear roses rej
Kaka Lulu pemi
I'm waiting for that video where someone just drives right over the vehicle ;-)
LOL hopefully that video never happens. :)~
If it was faster and bigger I might buy it
need some upgrades. Need to go Brushless.
mine broke under a weak the left track made noise then it went out. it no longer spins without assistance. so it just spins now rip 💀⚰ 70 dollars
Call Air Hogs customer support. ;)
or buy a hobby grade one.
Flyin' Ryan RC would they replace it?
ScorchingNightfall There is no such thing as a hobby grade version of something like this.
***** Possibly! :) It's worth trying at least. :)
The feet things😁
how much would it
About as much as it could
thumbs up for laying n the geese poop, oh and the great review too
LOL thanks! :)
What if only one trax spins?
Sounds defective. :(
very nice video like
thick mud
450mah is actually a bit small dude... cheerson cx-10 has a 100-130mah battery and thats super tiny! this should have a 1100mah with how big it is... batteries can go as high as 20,000mah! my dji has a 4400mah standard size battery and lasts ~25min in the air and weighs ~2.5lbs if this explains anything to u about the batteries.
LOL an 1100mah battery would be as big as this entire model, and would keep it from floating. 450mah is plenty big for what this is.
I think it would be a cool idea if they made one with the pontoon tracks as seen on the marine' s UHAC prototype, ua-cam.com/video/3SOwKXU4x1Q/v-deo.html...that way no transformation is needed! Also it would be a lot faster because the power-to-weight ratio on small rc tanks
hey m8
I am getting it to day
Mine is Just blinking and doing nothing.
can it go threw mud
Guess that depends on the mud. I think I drove it through some mud in my running video, didn't I?
put fpv on it and it's twice the Fun
I'm not sure if it would float with the extra weight, and you'd also have a problem with the FPV camera not being waterproof.
satisfy
Hi
Hello
It can "round" on ground and on water ? xD lol
Haha, I noticed that typo RIGHT before publishing the video. All the times I looked at that intro screen while editing it, and watching it after exporting it, and I never noticed the typo until it was too late. heh You are the first and only one to mention it though, so I guess most people either didn't catch it, or don't pay attention to my intro screens. lol
Haha. Maybe its because they're used to watching them so much they dont pay attention yea xD
Flyin' Ryan RC I was thinking of subbing but after that completely lazy typo and your laziness to not fix it I have decided to leave and never return. Good job, see you "round" youtube!
Hahaha jk, I subbed. Great job, great reviews.
3:33 nothing
i just tried to try the times like 5:22
I have one
😳😳😳♥️👍👍🤗
can you buy me one
Vanessa Felisberto 😂😂
treds not feat things
ه
if you would have slipped in the mud and took a dive in the geese poop you wouldn't have edited it out because it would have been funny
Yep! hahaha Did you see the clip after the credits?
Flyin' Ryan RC l
I stood to the end of the clip. what us do for our R/c toys. lol. cool toy.
buy me one plese
Tory Combs he doesn't buy stuff for fans he only does reviews
oii
great toy but rubbish battery life , 90 minutes to charge, 5 to 6 minutes play time , will not turn and go forward at same time after 3 minutes use 😠
Takes 90min to charge for less than 5 minutes operating time. Avoid!
That is pretty much the standard for toy-grade RCs.
wrong way!!!!!
Huh?
Thats not nice.
