Cyclone RC Cars with Bright LED Lights

One side has no power and it’s producing a burning smell. It will only spin in a circle at half power because only one side works. At first I thought it wasn’t fully charged so I charged it until the red light went off. Next I thought it wasn’t fully charged due to the carpet. I placed it on a tile floor and it still doesn’t work. I purchased this for my grandsons birthday. Lucky fo me he’s 2 and doesn’t realize I bought him a useless toy but buyer beware. Looking at reviews now, I see that this has happened to others. I don’t expect the quality of a $100 rc car out of a $20 Chinese toy but I do expect my purchases to function as advertised. I’m disappointed and I could’ve really let a child down if he’d been old enough to know the difference. I read other reviews with the same problem. Update: I exchanged it for a fully functioning one and this one is really cool. It runs over other toys. If you run it into a wall it flips and comes away unharmed. You can make it flip in the middle of the floor and the spinning trick is really cool. Unfortunately you have to take your chances because my experience is 50/50 that you get a good one. I’ll increase my rating to 3 based on the fact that it’s really cool (on day 1) if you are one of the lucky recipients of a fully functioning item.
