I always appreciate that people put the time in to provide us with reviews, so thank you. IMO, reviewers need to stop complaining about transmitters that aren't suited to one-handed driving. Nearly all of you do this. This may be a critical issue for the dozens of video reviewers, but it's a complete non-issue for the [tens, hundreds of] thousands of consumers. Either let it go, or invest in a hands-free camera mount that lets you use two hands to work the transmitter, as the designers intended. I hope you can take this as a constructive criticism. No offense is meant.
@DoURC Жыл бұрын
🤣 Feedback is always welcome. 👍 I drive one handed even when not filming. But the point really is the transmitter isn't great and the wheel is really stiff, whether you use it one handed or two handed. 👍 As I said in the video, it's cheap, but you get what you pay for and can't really expect more.

@yekit485 I also hate indicators! 🤣 At the end of the day the reviewer is also giving their opinion on things they like or don't like. In my opinion that's important, otherwise we're just zombies and we'd just be telling you information you already know. Everything can be subjective at the end of day. Just my 2p 👍

I put the axles inside the leaf springs, like on a real one. Leaned over, all you need is for the springs to bounce a tiny bit, and it falls over. Putting the axles on top lowered it and solved the problem. I also removed the bumpers, they get in the way, terrible approach and departure angle with bumpers on.

The electronics and axles may be junk, but you can buy this one for close to the same price as a Bushido clear body and have a great starting point for a build. I had a 1:1 Hardtop Jimny (Samurai) for many years and miss it every day.

The thing is, most 1/10's these days aren't actually 1/10. Take the Traxxas TRX4, Redcat Gen8, FMS FCX10 etc, they're all not a true 1/10. Tamiya get the closest scale rigs and their 1/10's are tiny in comparison to a TRX4 etc. Easiest way is look at the measurements. Either way it's not a very good rig tbh and you could buy better imo. 👍

Rubbish. The whole point of the WPL models is the rare beautiful bodies. Here, the manufacturer simply put on a dull, faceless gray body on the same flimsy useless chassis. Finally give us a NEW chassis, with normal components! In which the buyer will not need to change absolutely ALL details to normal ones on the first day after purchase.
