What type of 18650 battery is needed? High drain / low drain / any kind? What mAh capacity is recommended?

Dear customer, Thank you for your question. Any real 3.7v 18650 batteries work. There is no requirment about mAh. The more mAh, the longer the car can run. For 18650, the mAh is about 3000mAh. If the number is too large, it may be fake battery. If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact us. Have a nice day. :) Sincerely, Freenove Support Team

What batteries does it need ?

Dear customer, Two rechargeable lithium batteries with model of 18650 and voltage of 3.7V are needed. You can choose this one from: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y4YNGT3?ref=myi_title_dp If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact us. Have a nice day. :) Sincerely, Freenove Support Team

Can one set this up to use a solar power power bank instead of batteries?

I don't think so. The car uses some specialty batteries and you have to get the right type. I ordered mine from Ebay and Battery Junction. The instructions give the type. I cant remember what type they were.

Do you need to assemble it?

Yes, you need to assemble, you can see the tutorial download on the box.
