Are you the type of person that can construct an Ikea desk without looking at the instructions or are you the type of person that calls in help from your dad? It’s an important question to ask yourself before opening the box to the Space Coaster Marble Run because depending on your answer, it’s going to take you either 20 minutes or 2 hours to construct. So after donning your Bob The Builder hat and somewhat rewardingly figuring out how to put it together, the fun really starts.

Reenact away safe in the knowledge that if anybody witnesses, you retort “just got out of the bath, with you in a moment…” heh heh heh. “When 900 years old, you reach… Look as good, you will not.”, frankly Yoda should have bought himself this bathrobe and look good he would have.

Whilst we appreciate the super fine detailing that has gone into crafting such a sweet looking RC car, it isn’t what we absolutely love about the Rapid RC Racing Car. Whilst we love that these cars are so small you can race them in confined spaces where normal RC cars wouldn’t be able to manoeuvre, that’s not what we absolutely love about the Rapid RC Racing Car either. We do like the headlights that come on during operation making racing in the dark a blast, but again it isn’t the one true thing that we absolutely love.

We didn’t know what a gyroscope was either, but Google tells us it’s is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, which means we’re still actually none the wiser. What we do know is that a gyroscope combined with a RC helicopter is a perfect combination, delivering possibly the single most stabilized, easily manoeuvrable flight we’ve enjoyed in a long time.
