Yes, it is expensive for a toy. For the same amount of cash, you could get yourself a 1/12th scale remote control car. But if you love gadgets, like me... just got to get this one.

It's here in Switzerland in wide availability at Swisscom shops. I find it good, but the only problem is that for me it will turn more towards the right than the left...

There is a small lever located at the bottom (front) of the car. You could use this to compensate the steering/alignment of the wheels. Just move the lever to the opposite direction where the car is inclined to go.

This won't totally fix the problem, but it will help somewhat.

Yes, you could use the joystick.

Or use the keys to control the car.
1 - Forward
2 - Left
3 - Right
4 - Backward

To control the speed:
* - 1
0 - 2
# - 3

Although, I didn't notice any change in speed.

The volume keys can also be used to control the car.

But the car came with the little thing on the bottom all the way towards the left. It helps the problem, because I tried moving that lever (what do you call it ?) towards the center or the right, and then the car has an even more serious left turning problem.

@dantec

In your first post, you said that the car tends to turn more to the right. Now, when you move the lever, it turns more to the left. It seems to me that you should move/adjust that in small increments, until such time that your car can move in a 'somewhat' straight line.

Sorry i mean it turns left... only left... If i put the lever straight the problem is even worse. So the lever is turned towards the right as much as it can be but the car still turns left from time to time...

If your car still turns to the left eventhough the lever is already fully adjusted to the right, then I'd say the front wheels are messed-up.

Did you get the car from an authorized dealer? dealers here are supposed to give you 6 months warranty on accessories. Why don't you try having it replaced. Show them how the car runs, that should be enough reason for a 'defective unit' claim.
