If you don't jump or crash, minor ones are ok, it will last a very long time. I am already on my 3rd set of tires. If you've crash where it hurts, you can break it in no time. Take your time and play it in open space, avoid curbs, and enjoy

It seems that the current version of 124008 comes with this "new" black 35A ESC (search "wltoys 124008-2730", KZbin keeps deleting this comment with a direct link). Anyone can help to identify it? There are no labels on the ESC itself. Is there a programming card known to work with this ESC? What are the specs? It is using 3S LiPo, but I don't like its default handling (it is almost impossible to drive smoothly).

Sorry for the late response. All part# are in the detail description. As for the diffs, it would be a whole long discussion. In my book, open diffs are just bad for bashers for 2 main reasons: reliability and power are poor. Since these diffs cannot hold oil, I put silly putty in it, don't even bother cleaning the old oil. I pack it down on the rear diff and a little in the front. If the front is too tight, the car won't turn as shape

Yes, you can use CVD at the rear. I don't like metal parts for wltoys, ALL are poorly made. I would stay away from metal parts with moving components. From my experience, the diff housing wear out very fast, faster than plastic ones. Worst, they are heavy
@FAKE-NAME 24 күн бұрын
@@customtoyrevolutionI was referring to the differentials inner casing being made of plastic the part that holds the gears on the inside. I know the metal is a bit heavier but the plastic inner diff casing comes deformed from the screws being tightened. I realize the outer diff housing would be heavy as f and may have issues but shouldn't I at least do the inner casing with metal and grease the inner gears really well? Differential rides on bearings on the ends so wouldn't metal be better? Basically want to eliminate the plastic diff casing that came with 124008/124010 diffs and put the larger axel end cups into a full metal diff casing then put the upgraded diffs into plastic housing(until it breaks then I'll go metal). Goal is to not melt plastic doing oval laps as fast as possible for 3 batteries in a row in back yard.

Yes, the diff casing which is made with power aluminum wear out very fast causing those pins inside rock back and forth. What really helps is pack super heavy diff oil to slow the internal movement.

Outstanding 124008 upgrade video 👑👍🏼 I've had my 124008 for around 6 months now and can share some findings. The notch teardown of the diff cups happens even on stock setup out of the box. After close inspection of the direction it seems to happen when you brake at high speeds. My rear diffs has even larger notches than yours 🤪😂 But switching the front and rear diff was a great tip while I'm awaiting replacement diffs in the mail 🙏🏼 I have to warn you about a weakness in the plastic bottom chassis plate wich is the bow shaped cup protecting the driveshaft gear. It sticks out in the bottom of the car and wears down easily. To the extent that all the plastic gets scratched away and leaves a open hole directly in to the driveshaft gear. I had to replace my bottom plate because of this. Besides that the car is durable as hell and always delivers a great driving experience 👍🏼 Right now im running it on 84mm huge tires, 124010 orange body, Rlaarlo AM-X12 tail and springs and a modified MJX Hypergo bumper with LED lights. I have two questions 😇 How did you paint the black on the original body (looks fantastic 🤩) and how can I get a hold of a similar motor mount that you made? 🙏🏼😎🤙🏼

super glue seems to work well rubber-rubber. there's a bargain "choice" seller of shocks with eyes already installed "Remote Control Parts Factory Store", they're not original but they're very good. They have black springs instead. I've used them on a few wltoys and an mjx 14301 with the mjx springs. But maybe yours just need a good cleanout. i got one of these for a mate, and he cannot run it stock on 3s without burning the motor up, even with a turbofan. Just the way he drives full throttle everywhere and the surfaces he drives on. tried him on 2s "not fast enough", ended up setting him up a 124017 with a larger lower kv motor. but those old gear ratios are so much longer hey so currently I have two of these to work on, same issue, cannot get new spur and pinions to mesh on stock motor mounts. is just too tight, and if i fudge the motor mounting, still sounds wrong. Would love to have this motor mount!

hello thank you for this useful video. I watched because on my 144010 (rlaarlo 1/14) the diff cups wear out so so fast, it's cheese on a brushless setup. Do these diff cups from the 124008 last longer ? Thx I also just got the slipper clutch and installed it. I have 4 things to mention. The part that goes on the front side, when you close the diff housing, it squeezes the cup so it does not move. I had to untighten those screws of the diff housing for it to rotate correctly. Not great as you create a small gap for dirt to get in. The nut of the slipper also really needs to be as far as possible towards the cup otherwise it's too tight. Normally if you hold the 2 rear wheels and accelerate, the car should "cough" because it's slipping, it doesn't do it. I'm not sure this slipper really does anything. Last thing to mention is I had to sand off a part of the grub screw that goes in the cup as it was rubbing when rotating on the plastic upper deck separation which protects any contact with the battery. Hope this helps others.
@customtoyrevolution Ай бұрын
Good info, I have to check them out when I have a chance. The diff cups still wear out faster than I like, but I do put more power on it. MJX doesn't have this problem running at similar speed. 55mph on Wltoys vs 50mph on MJX. If you have time, try quenching the diff cups. Too bad I can't tell you at what temp as we have no idea about the metal composition. I would burn it just barely red hot and quench it immediately in cold water. Maybe that would help.
