1:28 Audi quattro 1980 – Officially Licensed RC Model
A legendary rally icon, brought to life in miniature
Experience the unmistakable character of the legendary 1980 Audi quattro in an impressive 1:28 scale. This officially licensed RC model combines the timeless design of one of Audi’s most iconic cars with accessible, entertaining driving performance.
Designed for children aged 8+ as well as Audi enthusiasts and RC fans, this compact quattro is ready to hit the road straight out of the box. Its highly detailed body, made from durable ABS plastic, faithfully captures the spirit of the original while being built for everyday RC fun.
At Aerobertics, we particularly like the versatility of this little quattro: with both road tyres and drift wheels included, you can switch between precise racing and playful drifting depending on your mood and surface.
Road racer or drift machine – you choose
The model features a 4WD drivetrain, providing excellent traction and stable handling across a variety of surfaces. Fit the road wheels for controlled driving, or switch to the included drift wheels when you want the rear end to step out and have some fun.
The proportional steering and throttle provide smooth, progressive control, allowing you to precisely manage both speed and direction. Combined with the responsive 2.4 GHz radio system, the result is a surprisingly realistic driving experience for such a compact model.
With a top speed of up to 10 km/h and a running time of up to approximately 20 minutes, the Audi quattro delivers plenty of fun without becoming difficult to handle.
Ready to Run – everything you need to get started
The Audi quattro comes as a complete RTR (Ready-to-Run) package. The box includes the model, a 3-channel 2.4 GHz transmitter, rechargeable LiPo battery and USB charging cable.
The replaceable 1S LiPo battery makes it easy to keep the fun going, while the availability of spare and tuning parts means you can maintain and customise the model over time.
Why we like it at Aerobertics
It’s more than just a scale model. The combination of the iconic Audi quattro design, 4WD traction, proportional controls and interchangeable road/drift wheels makes this a particularly versatile little RC car.
Whether you're looking for a fun first RC car, a compact drift machine or a miniature tribute to Audi's rally heritage, this 1:28 quattro is a great choice.
Small in size, big in character – a true quattro at heart.
