There all good but which ones the best?

[@matthewgray1990]

So glad you made this video been trying to compare these models online for weeks now😂

[@publicprofilename4273]

The last 2 numbers are what version they are. There doesn't seem to be an indication for brushless that I'm aware of. This naming convention is a little inconsistent though. The 104009 is CLEARLY 1:12 scale. And a few others are like that, but for the most part, ignoring that they are all a little undersized, the name is scale, 4x4 "is there a 2x4?" And version number.

[@jamesbann3577]

I want a 18628 but I think it's overpriced. I should grab one before they disappear!

[@FAKE-NAME]

Finally the video I needed to find a month ago lol. Just getting the family into rc's and knowing I was going to be buying a few wltoys just make sense. Got 2x 124017's one me and wife and got my kid the 124019. Also decided I wanted to build one for fun so ordered all the parts to make a full metal 124017

[@WoWdreamWoW]

Understanding the numbering system for WLToys - UNLOCKED. That's quite easy to remember. I just started this hobby and I have 4x WPL D12's at 1/10th scale. I recently ordered a WLToys 124016 V2. I chose WLToys for performance and value. I chose the 124016 over the other similar WLToys models because I prefer the looks of it.

[@GodsMindDreaming]

Got the 144010, fast out of the box and cheap replacement parts. I don't do jumps. I just drive it around in short grass and my dog chases it. Feels like a real battle as his skills improve as my driving improves. Good fun.

[@microRiZu]

@godsminddreaming hey can you please give me a summary of your experience? i'm from a under developed nation i have to wait 4 weeks for 144010 to get delivered. HOW Long did you use it for? did you just drive it around casually in grass/dirt/mud etc, did you face any issues if so what parts required most frequent replacements, did you bash it? please answer since i want something cheap and reliable, like a honda cub !

[@rickrussell]

I've been enjoying the MJX Hyper Go cars, which claim to be 16th scale. So easy to throw them in a messenger bag and take them anywhere. I have other great cars at much larger scales, but none of them are as portable.

[@nowthatscrazy]

I bought the 104001 brushed version. Super easy to wrench on, reasonably quick and i haven't managed to break anything yet. Thank god for most of the suspension parts being on ball sockets. I do feel a brushless conversion in the future though 😅

[@microRiZu]

most detailed amazing video for me who is beginner and has to decide on first rc car for long term! and im from a piss poor economy so aliexpress my only option, for better or worse i've decided on brushless 140010 i will be ordering grease for diff and extra one of those plastic steering link rod thingies that you mentioned break, i will only be using the car on road, and maybe a little bit on dusty roads (no mud etc) or water, i will keep it clean and see how many years it lasts!!!

[@Topsiekku]

In the 144001 model, the differential wears at least quickly, even if it has been filled with vaseline. The Cardan shaft can also bend if you jump and come down nose first. Drive shaft cups wear out quickly. Lower support arms must be in stock at home. And the carbon holder arm broke off from the engine. I think I will buy the brushless version next.. maybe size 1:12 and maybe model 124008 or 124007 or 124017. Im also interested MJX hyper go models. They say that they are durable. But I just started the hobby and bought 3 more 2s batteries, so I have a total of 4, I want a use for them, preferably a car that moves hard even with a 2s battery.

[@foxgrid3279]

I have a modified 104002 and love it! Makes an amazing drift machine actually

[@somepotsie1861]

Great video Ben. These cars are a great alternative for people who just can't afford the bigger brands, or want multiple vehicles. I'm holding out for the 104019 which is a brushless version of the 104009.

[@kama8880]

Great video. Some nice little tips. Keep it up 👍

[@jameslmorehead]

I have a 959A (brushed 16th scale) and a 124017 v2. The 959A has been upgraded to a 550 motor, Deans battery connector, full metal chassis and suspension. I cut away part of the body to clear the cooling fins on the motor. It looks slick. The receiver/ESC was depotted. The MOSFETs were swapped for a set with much lower on resistance and faster switching speed. The pair with their tabs tied to negative were soldered to the bottom of the board. A pair of custom heatsinks were made for the 4 MOSTETs, one heatsink for each side of the board. The traces on the PCB were beefed up by soldering solder wick on the high current sections. This is all topped off with a set of tires from the 979A. This little thing goes 45MPH on a 2S. The 124017 is relatively new to me. I've only had it about 6 months. It has all metal suspension and larger axle shafts. Sadly, the cross pin holes for the hex wheel adaptors are drilled about 1.25mm too far down the stub shaft, so the adaptor does not properly seat on the inner race of the bearing. This leaves a ton of slop at the wheel. This is not a big deal running as a park basher, but any high speed runs are just uncontrollable.

[@roadstar499]

The 959a is the sloppest steering car i ever owned..the blue brushless v7 version is awesome..needs nothing,you must have gotten a defective one.

[@fernandomartin624]

I had the 12428 and was so much fun I bought 2 but they end up breaking I fried a esc and the little Allen bolts are impossible to help change parts.. I'm about to get the 124018 and see how that goes.

[@jamesbann3577]

Cool video! I have a 144010 and 10428. Ordered a 124016 last night. :)

[@LassoKid7777]

I got a 124007 V2 with all the metal upgrades and 2440 motor it goes hard but it is a little heavy in comparison to the all plastic model

[@heclanet]

After watching your video I bought the 124016 (or 18) the 104019, 104072 and 12429 (Which I converted to brushless)

[@mfdriscoll2501]

Any recommendations re. RC car for driving indoors..Enjoyed your video.

[@unstoppable6047]

If you have a version one of these vehicles. Change the pinion gear to a lower tooth count. That will help with the cauging issues. Youll lose some speed but have better take offs.

[@iCatch]

Could you replace the stock RC receiver/transmitter with your own?

[@eduardomalcom2228]

Hello, I have the 144001 and the 124017 very happy with them... but I just bought the 124008 and now it's my favorite! Do you have any video of the 124008, do you know it, do you like it?

[@RcOffroad9513]

Cool video! I have moved on to racing 1/8 scale but it was the affordability of these that got my interest really peeked... And it has grown since for racing remote controlled cars offroad. Great video and great entry into rc hobby cars!

[@balazsrepasi8035]

Thanks so much, this was the video i was looking for 👍

The red and blue truck is very very good.. just needs a metal chassis. The new brushless one would be great. I also have the red and black buggy v2, which is stupidly quick.

[@TheThetruthmaster1]

144010s cool. I got the metal upgrade parts just in case

[@whitey1195]

Hey mate how did you go fitting all the metal upgrades ? I’m thinking about ordering a kit for my 144010 but seen a video with some fella having issues fitting some parts

[@RickOAA]

I have the 124017 V2. I've found it to be a bit much on our small track. It has required various driveline upgrades to be durable. I might make it a street car and get a 124019 for offroad use. I also have a lowly Traxxas Rustler XL-5, and with some cheap upgrades it has been incredibly solid and is my favorite RC of all time.

[@GoFlyPix]

If you did this video again exactly the same only the 124016 was the V2 which is light years better than V1. Would it change your opinion on a favorite?

[@Topsiekku]

is the 124007 more stable to ride due to the longer wheelbase than the 144010 or the brushed 144001? i have 144001 brushed version..its real speed is 35-38km/h.. 60km/h text in box is lie

[@dannylemming4663]

[@rayxxkaiser3586]

Bought a 144002 rtr that equips with brushless 3650 motor, then the front arm rod twisted (the seller has already upgraded it to 144010 before sell) and the plastic sheering system broke without serious crashes, probably due to the strong steering force because it happened when turning left. Now upgraded the sheering system with aluminum alloy parts, changed back the front arm to plastic pieces, substituted 2838 and carbon fiber chassis for 3650 and metal chassis, and see would it be fixed later.... Errrrr The total cost goes near to a little higher than a half of entry traxxas rc price.

[@eliobakhos8740]

man i want to buy the new version 2 124016 habile but many people are still saying the cogging issue is still and the range issue is it true ? i am thinking of buying the 144010 because its more safe about cogging what do you advise me ?

[@ThompsonRc]

Do the plastic suspension arms from the 104002 fit on the 104009/104019?

[@noobrccars4392]

Hi there unfortunately no there different. They are the same as the yellow and blue one the 12402

[@Silent_Shepard]

I bought the original 144001 from Amazon and when it came in after just a few it stopped and only the steering would work so I sent it back and got a new one and the same thing happened except the esc didn’t beep like normal when turning on and nothing would work so we sent it back again and got the 144010 off of banggood and it’s on its way, do you have any idea why the other 2 quit working after just 1-3 runs

[@noobrccars4392]

Sorry for the late reply. I have quite a few friends that have got the 144001 some had the same problem as you the electrics were a bit hit and miss really unlucky to get two bad ones though.

[@letzvisit1661]

Nice video! I have an 019 which as brushed I was really surprised at the speed! I didn’t find mine weak tbh it’s like anything if you don’t crash it then it will be just fine. Obviously at the speeds they run a crash is gonna cause big problems. I had an issues after a crash with another car that the front right steering arm came out (the little pin) if you look at the front of the car and behind the front differential there are these metal brackets with plastic things that hold the steering arm pins in place. Those on mine broke and caused an issue. I find the chassis is weak/soft metal it takes deep scratches or worse just from driving on the ears from stones and concrete. Overall a great car for the money. I was tempted to buy the 1/10 buggy for a speed run car but I’m having trouble finding spares in uk even an engine mount so I’m not so sure if I want one or just go with the 017

[@jaysonburns8512]

Can we please get off thease now pieces of shi*, that yea for a year or 2 managed to blow off that sh** with their speed and quality,BUT ohh and as any business owner or person who dosnt wanna throw away their "NOT" hard earned profits on making the consumer happy finding a (again going with the quotes) "Black hole of toy innovation" And instead of keeping the consumer happy with quality product decided to take, they're proven winning a game plan and cheapen it to the point of no return. Yes, for about a year or 2. They were a good option. In fact, a great Traxxas, Arrma, Losing ass kicking beast fir let's say a year or 2 until The good old american dollar, it became the overwhelming drive, overpowering The very minimal quality that it had, but yet at the price point in which you got blew. Those companies out of the water nowadays you get what you pay for period you put those in the closet in the garage sail on craigslist, and let's find the next hidden diamond in the ruff!

I got my 144001 brushed for 58 for banggood couple years ago and no lie with the new brushless verison they use a 60amp ESC I brought the 35amp verison of the same ESC for 2.59 from Amazon I think now the prices keep rising even that new 1/18scale is 120 pound lmao 😂

[@hectortheerector]

124016 I got and stripped the back gear on first run in a bit long grass 😢 it's in bits in shed awaiting new parts. Apart from that happening it was running very fast and seamed like a very good rc buggy but nothing like my beast max for bashing that thing is a tank. 😂 55 pound bargain and will hit 50mph on 3s if you get lucky to get one with right esc it's the one with out screws to attach it to body, it's attached with double sided tape. 3s it will run. Even though it says 2s on esc 😂. One with screws to hold esc down will blow on 3s. Luck off the drew when buying one of thses cars.

I just bought a WL144010 1/14th scale buggy. I had an Xmaxx for a few years but I sold it. I loved it but the parts were very expensive. It was not fun carrying it around or transporting it. I was worried it would injure someone or I would damage something with it to be honest. I saw a review on Claires RC channel on the wl toys 144010 last year and it impressed me. I mostly just run on trails, parks, parking lots and like to jump a bit.

Is there anything that isn't weak on that 144001? You just named all the parts that come with the car besides the motor and ESC in the tires. Lol I sure as heck wouldn't buy it hearing that. I'll pick up a MJX hyper go and go have fun all day long not for just 5 minutes and replace your shocks cuz they bent, put a new wing on it and the other things that you mentioned. Forget about that. I don't have all the money in the world to buy the car bash it for a little bit and replace all these freaking parts no way.

[@bradleymilton9372]

Think your a bit old for toy cars lol

[@TheMitsosBlog]

There are 2 problems with this cheap Wltoys. Problem number 1 is that they are toys and that leads us to problem number 2. When you start using them as real RC cars they start to brake and you end up spending twice (or more) the money you spent for buing it. Don't get me wrong I have 1 WLtoys and 2 WPL crawlers. I spent a ton of money on my C24/1, and it is still not near a brand RC. If you like to mend and built more than play then go ahead, they are great for starting the hobby. My advice is if you are young or you want something for you child buy ONE, the chipest you can find, and don't spend money on it. Brushed versions are just fine, they are more drivable and don't disindgrade as much as the brushless. Keep your money and buy an entry level Arrma, Traxxas, Tamiya etc. There are alot of RCs with 200€.

[@thehomefront1905]

My friend, I have about 70 rc cars from every manufacturer out there, and they all brake, every rc car I've ever had has broken. I've got 3 X max's all sitting on the shelf broke and they cost over 1k each. The only rc cars that don't brake are the ones that do a top speed of 12mph otherwise get ready to buy parts.
