It looks like the remote has a regular (forward) turn function (video), but the description says that it uses a reverse turn function. Clarification?

The remote has two functions: forward and turn. The turn function only goes one way (as opposed to being able to choose left or right), so if you hold down the turn button, the car will just turn in a circle. I gave one of these to each of my kids when they were 3 and 1, respectively, and they still play with them now a year later. I could see how older kids might get bored with the limited functionality, but I think this car is a great introduction for 1 to 4 year olds to remote controlled toys.

No it does not have reverse. But if you know how to handle the power it delivers then you will see you won't need a reverse. It's a fun car but not for beginners. It can get expensive if you crash. I completely changed a lot of parts on the car. I actually posted a picture of my jato with the go pro and all the mods. The picture should be u dear customer pics or comments

Unfortunately not. It has an affixed axle which does not allow for turns. It's just a basic learning project. I think there should be more advanced learning projects there after including remote control and the ability to do more functions like turning.

No, there is no fan-reversing switch on the remote control. You have to move a little slide switch on the fan housing itself in order to reverse the blade rotation. The remote control has a large button in the center of the remote which controls the light kit (on/off and dim). The other four push-button switches are for fan speed -- from largest to smallest they are High, Medium, Slow speeds and Off.

On the bottom of the large round section of the remote there is what looks like a circle with two arrows. Pressing this symbol changes the direction. The other multi dots on this same section are for the speed control. Hope this helps

Twist with thumb in the grip let it go and goes back to no power. This one has a button to change reverse that is thumb action click forward or reverse .

When you press the bidirectional arrows as previous readers mentioned it does reverse direction on the remote. After a few seconds of continuously holding down the button you will hear a click then after 10 more seconds the fan speed will be noticeably slower as it prepares to reverse direction.

Yep, the car does reverse great with and without the tires turned and using the remote or not. Don't know about the battery life possibility of extension cause I want to increase my sons as well.

Yes it is, however I bought the wall switch (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00803UQ7G/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) and it has a reverse button on it. The remote that comes with it does not have a reverse button. I am not sure if I wouldn't have bought the extra switch how I would reverse. In any case I love having the fan and I love having two options as far as controlling the fan.

Yes! It is not like others where there is a specific button on the side, rather you use the wheel. If you press your finger and push the wheel to the left you can go back. If you push the wheel to the right, it will go forward. You can feel a distinct click when you do it too.

Yes my remote has the button on the back. However I have no idea what this button is for, sorry I couldn't help you.

If you could use the forward/ reverse on your old remote this one should also work

No reverse, just one button to push for forward. Our 1 year old grandson loves it and it's perfect for his size!

Remote control for this vehicle has a wheel for steering and a trigger (pull for forward, push for reverse). The controls are either on or off, so if you turn left it is turn hard or straight, no slight turn. Same for throttle, either going full speed or stopped. My five year old loves it however, despite the limitations.

Not left and right. As for reverse, I do not recall. We have purchased 2 of these, and both stopped working rather quickly.

I just checked out my remote and there is NO reverse so the reverse is on the fan. Hope that this helps

No. Does not have auto reverse. Can record from A deck to B deck and has high speed dubbing. Your getting what you pay for.
