m.aliexpress.us/item/32568053... WLtoys 124008 NON AFFILIATE LINK In today's video we take the ALL NEW WLtoys 124008 to the SKATEPARK to answer one question ReK RC style. is it DURABLE REALLY? LET'S FIND OUT!!!
Mine is arriving tomorrow, I can’t wait. I have gone through,5, of the previous model and each one got damage, some after the first runs. I’m hyped. I have a hyper go and it takes a beating. Iets goo WLtoys.
Nice testing man! I got one and I love it. Unfortunately I hit a car and broke the front shock Tower within five minutes so I ordered the aluminum set for it. But I agree with you much better for bashing then their previous offerings. I made some modifications to the battery tray and added a battery stop so that I can run regular lipos
I really hope WLtoys stays on this new path, if they ever made a 1/10 scale SCT with that same chassis but larger, I would be all over it in a snap, especially if it had a telescopic main drive shaft. Heck I'd pay into the 200s for a brushless SCT like that from them.
I got 5 3s 2200mah packs through mine before the spur gear stripped. I was just driving around around a sports ground with short cut grass, nothing over the top. Something for consideration if you want to buy this car.
I think this WL-Toys is a winner for sure. How well did the drive shafts hold up? They look perfectly straight. I would love to see how well it preforms off-road. It's kind of small and low to the ground but I think it would do fine on a dirt track. My 124016 and Sunfires really struggle in the dirt and always bend dog bones.
The drive shafts were perfect. It's not heavy enough to bend them, at least not at my skatepark. Maybe a vert ramp to concrete landing could bend them, but it would take a really bad landing at high speed from pretty high up to hurt them.
@@Rek_Rc Well they look super thick compared to what's on my 124016. Your doing a great job with your channel. I picked up a ProTek RC "Glitch Buster" Receiver Voltage Stabilizer at the hobby store today for my DR-10. Basically it just a 4700μF cap the plugs into your receiver and is supposed to help with voltage drop. Only $4 so it's worth trying one out.
Plastic makes it so much better. They flex and don't bend, dissipating shocks very well. Metals tend to absorb the energy and deform, alignment is all messed up afterwards Did you need to add grease to the differentials? Or they are good to go out of the box?
Actually to my pleasant surprise the gears were actually greased in the case of this particular car. But it's always still a good idea to just check and make sure.
You mean the part where the steering anchors to the chassis? If so, I gorilla glued mine and it held ever since, hasn't broken again. If you're talking the servo, any 3 wire servo of the same size should fit.
@@reitplace4765 it feels so good to just pin the throttle and send it. It's like riding a roller coaster without actually moving but the excitement is the same.
