love the video ...but going to have to desagree with you on the fact that these cars need lights!!! i like night runs and some of the spots i go to do not have suficient lights ands its a crap to lign up the car from a distance ...so just the fact the new 144011 has lights makes me want to buy it !

I dig the lights. I'm a night shifter and sometimes spend my breaks bashing a RC in the dark. I've always had to add lights to them before. Equipped lights are a big perk for me.

the rear swing arms now have a screw that goes all the way to the end thus helping alleviate the problems with the rubber insert getting loose , they fixed that problem already, just make sure when you get it out of the box to flip them over because the inserts are installed backwards you will see your arms if you look from the bottom they are bent forward so remove the inserts flip them over and you will have a perfectly squared rear swing arm.

@BangForYourBuckRc Жыл бұрын
I do like it with the lights in, but like you I feel it’s just a bit pricey. Maybe $90 would be more justifiable! With daylight getting shorter here, those lights come in handy. Glad to see they’ve beefed up those cvd’s . I think that wing should be a shatter proof plastic instead of those polycarbonate ones. 32mph is impressive with a brushed set up! They probably achieved their speed Claims with a 3s lipo. Still looks great, but ready for a different look! Cheers 🍻 Ricky, have an awesome week!
@beyondRC Жыл бұрын
I agree. Yeah maybe it was 3s then they need to state that on the site. For example *Speed achieved with 3s battery. Most buyers (especially beginner buyers) will think it does the claimed speed on the site with included battery as they probably wont know the difference between 2s/3s as a 100% complete beginner. Its been going on for years. cheers
@BangForYourBuckRc Жыл бұрын
@@beyondRC Yes your absolutely right Ricky! The guilty companies that do this should disclose how they’ve achieved that speed. For example: Advertised top speed were attained by using a higher voltage lipo pack. **This is not recommended in actual product due to burn and fire Hazzard risk. Or ** 3s lipo/li-ion batteries can be used to achieve our advertised top speeds. Approved 3s lipo/li-ion batteries can be purchased here:(company link) I’ve been telling them since I’ve started to either do this or make it so the esc’s are compatible so 3s can can sustained more than a couple of runs. Rlaarlo, was the first to actually reply and make a change. Consumers like you and myself would rather have honesty than falsely inflated speeds or speeds that may have been achieved but with hazards or fire risks which should be noted. There are some companies now this , but still many falsely advertise.

Leds are catering for the 8-12 age bracket, IMHO. When I want leds on an RC I prefer to make my own. But obviously not everyone is that fortunate. I like the sticking a 550 can because it is easy to upgrade to a max 10 combo. But if honest you probably wouldn't. Currently I think mjx hyper go range is a better buy and similar price range. There's always a place for a cheap quality rc car with part support but I think you're correct that this price is not enticing for a brushed motor, throw away esc/rx combo and servo. Definitely time wltoys started to do something new and not just a rehash of a rehash.

the lights don't look like they have parabolic reflectors, do they actually work? the new part numbers start with 27xx, you need to fit the newer 27xx diff cups to fit the new 27xx CVDs and dogbones (and 27xx rear wheel axle cup if you're not going to run CVD), the pin and ball at the end of the dogbone is larger so doesn't fit the old cups. last few wltoys diffs i've looked inside of had a smidge of white lithium grease, ya basically can't tell they're greased even when they are I'd like to see them do more with that new 1/12 tub - monster trucks etc. They're good at the small cars, The larger cars need better bracing etc which wltoys lacks, their 1/10 folds up the front, and even team associated didn't get it right with the MT8. They have a fresh new 1/12 platform, they should use it. Another thing that wltoys got right with the 124008 was the gearing, they changed to a 15T pinion. If you see QuadifyRC's "The Ultimate guide to wltoys pinions", he complains about their long gearing to get max speeds, they changed from 23T to 19T to in the 144010 which improved the gear ratio, but you could bore out a 17T from an A959 for a lower gear ratio, and then his "Unicorn" gear ratio was 15T, much better for racing, but a unicorn in mod 0.7. Well wltoys chose 15T for the 124008, and changed to mod 0.6, a much more available tooth pitch (although the fixed motor mount only permits 15T or 20T reversed) - It would be interesting to see if the new 1/14 adopted the new mod 0.6 gearing (you can check if the part numbers start with 27xx)

Got a amoril 1/14 and two rlaarlo am-x12 that I like a lot more than my 124019 and 124017 v1. Pros of the rlaarlo and Amoril... So many more spares parts in the box. Less wobble in the wheels. Better wheel nut setup (no pins to lose). They look alot better as well. My negatives about the amoril 1/14 is the arms don't have holes for the roll bar kit. The brushed motor needs some thermal paste between the chassis. The esc gets super hot.
