JJRC Q65 RC Willy Jeep 1/10 scale . Upgraded with full WPL kit.

Here's the new JJRC Q65!
Stock out the box it's very good, but not perfect! I've put a WPL fully proportional electronics kit on it, and WPL steering servo along with the WPL 180 motor. Running with the 7.4V Li-ion that comes with the kit, this thing is now a very good trailer! I just need to find some softer tyres!

[@Del350K4]

The 180 motor and Li-ion combined have banished the turbo lag, and, coupled with the huge improvement in the steering you achieved with a little help from WPL , turned a slightly unsatisfying model into a really appealing scale Jeep. Great work!

[@TomleyRC]

Thank you.... it wasn't easy to show the lag on the video, but it was quite apparent while driving it. Now it's got much more control...and a bit more power!

[@herminigildojakosalem8664]

The yellow headlights and no red lights make it look so much better. I never remember during my Military time any vehicle with red lights on the front, so not sure what they were going for there.

Yeah....bright white and red....not really 'the look'. I'll get some rear lights on it at some point. At least they are to change over :)

[@sghering1]

Looking at getting one of these myself. It's sold by CIS but seems to be the same model. What I am wondering, is if adding some weights to it, would help with the spring preloading and ease up some of the bouncing. Maybe a video trying that out?

[@TomleyRC]

Adding some weights would help I think yes.

☢️Ordered it currently waiting. Then I see a soft top version. Will wait to see if jjrc kit offers soft tires? Nice mods Tomley. Great job as usual. Cheers

[@TomleyRC]

Cheer dude. Yes, it desperately needs softer tyres....they slip a bit as you can see in the video.

[@Hjerte_Verke]

Scale tips: the shovel and ax are both supposed to be mounted on the driver side and the front wheels are too far back. On the 1:1 Jeep, the first item out front is the bumper THEN the wheels, then the grille and fenders. Otherwise the Jeep looks buck toothed and dorky.

[@chuggles03]

Who's going to be printing up some nicer wheels? Would look good with a set of wheels! Aftermarket softtop, a few other pieces would make it an amazing scale vehicle.

[@modelnutty6503]

if you've been watching Gabriel Silvaz, the green WPL rims and the RTR tires.... he soaked the tires (bagged) in fingernail polish remover about 1/2 hour, followed by 6 hours wet bagged in WD-40. they swelled up to be a little over 3/16" taller diameter, and almost 1/8" wider, and a lot softer too. its the "protein enriched" fingernail polish remover, NOT the pure acetone. it might work out nice for this Jeep model with softer rubber and taller sidewalls for more traction, less bouncing around.

[@933pilgrim]

Will you give link for 180 motor. I ordered one but gear has 12 tooths and a little big for gearbox. Not fit.. Thanks..

[@didactylos4diddy474]

Definitely an improvement. As with all mods though is the change in performance of the control system financially viable? Functionally it definitely is.

[@TomleyRC]

$15 for the kit...$5 for a servo...$5 for the motor, I'd say if you haven't got all the stuff already, you'll probably be ok with the stock RTR. I had all the stuff...so for me it's an easy choice.

[@isaaclyonsf1]

This is awesome! I'd like to do this upgrade with mine, some of the links you have shared don't have the items anymore... can you suggest or sell some parts to me? Thank you.

[@vinceo5296]

How much is the upgrade kit? Hopefully not much considering that you can get a brushed ESC, cheap hobby grade servo, and receiver for about $15. Granted, you would maybe need your own Transmitter to match. Not sure if you can rebind JJRC or WPL transmitters.

[@TomleyRC]

It's around $15 for the kit...it's the Transmitter that is usually the expensive part.

I've run this on 7.4v and it's been fine. But that's not saying it will last 😉👍

[@MilanKarakas]

@@TomleyRC Thanks. Just made video about that modification, will be up in few hours. Thank you anyway. I watched MOSFETS and main receiver/MCU - everything can go up to 9.6V. Actually, there is 3.3V stabilizer for receiver and MCU (the same package). Just that servo is bad, slow... and motor as well - even at 7.4V has no much more power.

The motor itself is a straight swap (you just need to give the little lugs on the inside of the gearbox a rub down as it's a tight fit...oh...and swap the pinion if you have a 180 without one fitted. Apparently it's always good to have a Cap on the terminals....but I rarely put them on.
