Air Hogs Robo Trax All-Terrain Tank With Robot Transformation
Air Hogs Robo Trax All-Terrain Tank from Spinmaster is a remote-controlled toy that you can use indoors and outside. An excellent toy for the holidays as kids can have fun with it even if the weather outside is terrible.
It is a robust RC toy that kids can operate over grass, gravel, rocks, and sand. It is not specifically waterproof, so best keep it away from puddles and out of the rain.
The Robo Trax with hand controller, charging lead and projectiles.
It's more than just a tank. Using auto-balancing technology, it can transform into an upright robot balancing on the ends of its tracks for long-range missile launching. Neat!
It is very easy to control and is a lot of fun. A single push of a button on the transmitter is all it takes to elevate the missile bays, and a second button push completes the transformation into a robot. Another button fires the missiles.
There's an on/off switch on the side of the body with the USB charging port below. You can charge via your PC or buy an AC adaptor and plug it into the wall.
When upright, the robot's face glows green, and it can fire missiles when going forwards or backward. Auto-balancing technology keeps Robo Trax upright while firing missiles in Robot Mode.

Air Hogs Thunder Trax
Spinmaster's Air Hogs Thunder Trax is a remote-controlled toy tank that can transition from a high-performance land vehicle into a boat. You can play with it throughout the year on any terrain.
Like its stablemate Robo Trax, Thunder Trax operates efficiently over grass, gravel, rocks and sand but can also handle mud, snow, and water.
The thick, durable treads let you keep in control no matter the terrain, but you need to understand they will not be as responsive in water as when you are driving on land.
Thunder Trax only transitions to a boat when it is in the water and will then transform back when it is on land. There is a chunky blue button on the controller that you push to transform either way.
Controls are standard RC mode - forward and reverse plus left and right. There's also a trim control for the steering and the blue transform button.
The charging port has a rubber seal but before you plug in to recharge, always check that no water has come off the seal.
