Our take on the ZD Racing 16426 EX-16 1/16th Scale RTR Brushless 4WD Touring Car

The ZD Racing EX-16 is a ready-to-run 1/16 scale 4WD touring car aimed at beginners and younger drivers. It comes assembled with a 2.4 GHz radio, a 380-size brushed motor, a 30A ESC and a 7.2 V 1200 mAh lithium pack, and ZD rates runtime at up to 40 minutes. Its metal-gear 2.2 kg servo and full-time 4WD are sturdier hardware than the plastic-geared servos common on toy-grade 1/16 cars. Top speed is about 25 km/h, so it is a parking-lot and driveway car rather than a track racer, and it sits below hobby-grade brushless 1/16 models in speed and tuning support.

Best forFirst-time RC drivers and kids aged 10 and upDriveway, parking lot and smooth asphalt runningBuyers who want a complete kit with battery and radio in the boxLow-maintenance backyard bashing
Pros
  • Full-time 4WD with a metal-gear 2.2 kg servo
  • Complete package: radio, vehicle battery and charger included
  • Long rated runtime of up to 40 minutes per pack
  • 2.4 GHz radio with about 100 m range resists interference
  • Light 0.59 kg body is easy to carry and hard to damage in low-speed knocks
Cons
  • Brushed 380 motor and 30A ESC limit speed to about 25 km/h
  • Needs four AA batteries for the transmitter, which are not included
  • Small 1/16 size and low ground clearance suit smooth surfaces only
  • Fewer hop-up and spare-part options than mainstream hobby brands
  • Lithium pack needs proper charging and storage care, especially with younger drivers

What reviewers say

Owner feedback on the EX-16 line is limited, but what exists centers on it being a solid, complete starter car for the money. Drivers like the 4WD grip and the included battery and radio; the common complaints are the modest brushed-motor speed and the need to buy AA batteries before the first run.

What people mention
  • SpeedMixedOwners find about 25 km/h fine for learning but slow once they gain experience.
  • CompletenessPraisedDrivers like that the car, battery and radio come in one box.
  • BatteryMixedThe rated 40-minute runtime is welcome, but the lithium pack needs careful charging and storage.
  • DurabilityPraisedThe metal-gear servo and light body hold up well in low-speed bumps.
  • Parts supportCriticisedSpare parts and upgrades are harder to find than for big-name hobby brands.

Questions and answers

Is the EX-16 good for a beginner?
Yes. It arrives assembled with the radio and battery, and 4WD plus a 25 km/h top speed make it manageable for a first driver aged 10 and up.
What do I need to buy before the first run?
Four AA batteries for the transmitter. The car battery and charger are included.
How fast is it, and can it be upgraded?
Top speed is about 25 km/h on the brushed 380 motor and 30A ESC. Upgrades are possible but parts support is thinner than with major hobby brands.
Where can I drive it?
Smooth asphalt, driveways and parking lots. The low ride height and small wheels struggle on grass, gravel or rough ground.
How long does the battery last?
ZD rates runtime at up to 40 minutes per charge. Real-world time is shorter at full throttle, so a spare pack is worth having.
What is in the box?
The assembled car, a 2.4 GHz transmitter, a 7.2 V 1200 mAh lithium battery and a charger. AA transmitter batteries are not included.
