Erik Summer's video: RC Transforming Flying Car - Hot Wheels Sky Shock Review

Link to buy a flying car - https://amzn.to/2RCyECo *The HotWheels Sky Shock has been discontinued but I recommend the car in this link because it drives a lot better on the ground and flies a lot better in the sky! Review of the Syma X9 Flying Car - https://youtu.be/qQY2LxMJRCE The Sky Shocks flight performance wasn’t as good as I was expecting. I think the original Hotwheels StreetHawk flew much better and has fewer parts, making it more durable and lighter. I think a first-time flier would have a tough time getting the Sky Shock to fly for very long. Both have a trim tab on the rear fin to adjust the pitch up or down. It’s important to fly a couple short flights to adjust the trim before taking your Sky Shock up too high. The Sky Shocks folding wings will allow it to drive pretty quickly on land. Steering is done by changing the power to the left or right motors and not by turning the wheels so turns are wide and not easy to control. You’ll need plenty of space to fly because turns in the air are wide and if you try to turn too tight, the Sky Shock will roll over and nose dive. If you like the idea of a flying car, then I would recommend checking out my review on the Syma X8 FlyCar. The Flycar can steer on the ground and has powered wheels which give it excellent driving performance. The main difference is the Flycar turns into a quadcopter in the air. I’ll link to that review in the description below. Overall, the Sky Shock does fly, but don’t be fooled by the simple controls, it’s a challenging plane to fly. But with some patience and a very large open space it is possible to get this thing airborne.
