Drive it from its view.
There’s a specific kind of fun that hits differently when you’re not just watching a tiny car zip around — you’re seeing what it sees. First-person RC racing has been a thing for a while, but it usually means a much bigger car, a much bigger price tag, and considerably more setup before anything actually moves.
The Zoom Cam Mini RC Racer fits in your palm and streams live 720P video straight to your phone over Wi-Fi. Point it down the hallway, around the kitchen island, under the coffee table — suddenly your living room has a track.
The hardware is genuinely solid for the size: a coreless motor, front shock absorber, self-stabilizing gyro, and proportional steering keep it responsive instead of bouncy and random. Three speed modes mean you can ease into it before finding out how fast “fast” actually is. Blue ambient underglow lights don’t add performance, but they look great on the floor at night.
Control it with the included 2.4G remote or your phone via the Wi-Fi app, depending on how deep into the bit you want to go. USB charging, low-battery alarm. Ready to drive.
