UDIRC UD1401 1/14 Brushless RC Truck, 4WD, Gold, 45A ESC

The 1/14-scale UDIRC UD1401 is a gold brushless RC truck built for outdoor driving. Its 4WD system sends power to all four wheels, while the 3800KV motor and independent 45A ESC support responsive off-road runs.

Choose the included 2S battery for speeds up to 25 mph, or use a compatible 3S battery for speeds up to 40 mph. The 3S battery is sold separately.

For a relaxed first drive, turn down the transmitter’s adjustable throttle, raise it as driving skills grow. It’s a practical way to balance learning and faster runs in one truck.

Key points

The all-metal drivetrain, 15 ball bearings, and modular chassis give the UD1401 a serviceable hobby-grade setup. Replaceable electronics and body shells make maintenance and changes to the truck’s look more straightforward. Two body shells, in black and green, are included, along with three batteries and a charging cable.

For mixed outdoor surfaces, the 202 mm track, 85 × 45 mm foam-filled tires, oil-filled shocks, and 24 mm ground clearance are designed to help the truck maintain grip and handle bumps. Take it across dirt, gravel, grass, or pavement, and use the integrated LED lighting for a distinctive look. The twin-wheel wheelie bar and oversized rear wing add to the truck’s jumping, drifting, and wheelie-focused design.

Buyers highlight value and quality in their feedback. That makes this model especially appealing to shoppers who want a brushless hobby-grade truck with metal drivetrain components and useful adjustment features, rather than a simpler RC vehicle focused mainly on basic driving.

Usage tips

Start with a lower throttle setting, then increase it gradually as you get comfortable steering and controlling speed. For the truck’s intended off-road use, choose open outdoor space with room to drive across dirt, gravel, grass, or other hard-packed surfaces. The speed setting can also help tailor a run to the driver’s experience.

The product is recommended for ages 14 and up. If you plan to use a 3S battery, note that it is sold separately, the included 2S battery supports speeds up to 25 mph, while a compatible 3S battery supports speeds up to 40 mph.

Who it’s for

The UD1401 suits drivers looking for a 4WD truck for recreational outdoor runs, with adjustable throttle for skill progression and a brushless setup for higher-speed driving. Families can use the speed dial to make practice more manageable, while more experienced drivers can raise the throttle for a more responsive feel. Its serviceable chassis and replaceable electronics also suit hobbyists who value access to maintenance and repair.

If your priority is straightforward RC driving, the adjustable throttle and included batteries make this a versatile starting point. If you want more speed options and hobby-grade components, the brushless motor, metal drivetrain, and 3S compatibility give you room to tailor the setup.

What to clarify

What speed does the truck reach with its included battery? The included 2S battery supports speeds up to 25 mph. A compatible 3S battery, sold separately, supports speeds up to 40 mph.

Can you adjust the truck’s speed for a newer driver? Yes. Use the transmitter dial to adjust the throttle from 0% to 100%, then increase it as the driver gains confidence.

What comes with the truck? The package includes three batteries, a charging cable, and two body shells in black and green. The truck is recommended for ages 14 and up.

Buying verdict

A solid pick if you want a 1/14-scale 4WD truck for outdoor terrain and prefer having both beginner-friendly throttle adjustment and a brushless setup for faster runs. Its metal drivetrain, serviceable chassis, and included battery set make the UD1401 a practical fit for skill-building, family driving, and hobby-grade RC fun.
