man last upload was 7 months ago :o
It looks way better now! Good job!👍🏻
😎👍
Nice
Thks for sharing 😊
😎👍
Is it very, very 1/12 scale. NOT 1/14. Please compare the real and model sizes if you can use a calculator.
same truck on my profile picture i have had it for a couple months and love it
😎👍
is it waterproof
Hi. Didn't test it. Doesn't say it is. I Wouldn't risk it.
6:27 have you lost your ball?, its in the corner
Wheel mn86k,pleas
Wheel tyres vs wheel mn86k,pleas bro
Awesome video thanks for review, i already have too many expensive hobbies so i have been scratching the RC itch with used cars and this looks awesome for $90
😎👍
i think I'll just get a C-54-1 instead, i just really want a 1/10 scale crawler though 😢
Honestly just spend a couple quid more and get some nice injora oil shocks
Good idea. 👍
Great vídeo
😎👍 Cheers buddy
Who's watching this in 2024 👇
Hi. How many? 586 people in the last 28 days! 👍
Still junk and folks keep spending cash on this mess.
Can't it be replaced with tamiya esc ?
Hi. You can do, you have to ch age the other electrics as well
Awesome set of videos,well done on the mods series...1 thing,where can I get the spider that you have on the roof please ?
Hi. Thanks. I designed and 3D printed the spider.
Great video, is it possible to cut the hex axles shorter for a narrower track width?
Hi. Yes. But not sure how deep the thread goes. 😎👍
Nice, it's better to have in in 1/10 scale, like that ua-cam.com/video/JtaYhpspyKk/v-deo.htmlsi=R_LQyN8lASYzZ993
Should I put oil in the suspension?
Hi. These are not oil shocks. Spring only
Should I put what you are describing at this minute 1:40?
Just a bit of grease
Ok thank you😊
Did you put weights on those tires?
Hi. No. As standard.
LED headlights: Paint the back of the LEDs silver first ! Then all that wasted light will be reflected forwards, not absorbed ! Tyres: Can the glue be removed for tyre replacement ?
Hi. Good tip! If you use small spots of glue it's not a problem removing the tyres. Just pull them off and use a knife to remove any remaining. 😎👍
Where's the upgrade video you mentioned? Can you put a link in the description?
Hi. Sorry buddy. Not done one yet. Too many projects. 😎👍
You can soften the tires more by spraying them with WD-40 numerous times
😎👍
Master
😎👍
Just ordered one. I am very glad i ran across this vid thanks so much 😊
My pleasure buddy 😎👍
i can't find anywere the cvd's for the wpl portal axle, they broke so easily
Hi. Look on the WPL website or Banggood, Ali Express, Ebay, Amazon. Should be loads
Will these fit on the WPL c74 Jimny?
Not tried it, but don't see why not
ive had these portal axles on my 34 for almost 2 years now and the only issue i have is the steering link. because its just plastic it will eventually bend and not steer right. highly reccommend a link made of stronger plastic or jut go metal. otherwise i love these portal axles
😎👍
Can you recommend an esc with a break for this. I don’t think mine has a drag Break.
Hi. You would need to swap out all the electrics if swapping the esc as it uses 5 wire servo instead of 3 wire. Hobbywing 1060 is always good
Things cool but the driveshafts absolutely suck The joint broke on my second day. Upgraded some alloy drive shafts in it and it’s good to go.
Thanks for sharing that tip buddy! 👍
All these rebrand companies use henglong internals, the TK electronics are decent compared to the old ones, but if you want to perform better you'll probably need to invest in better boards and gearboxes
😎👍
Does this have any drag break?
I agree on the battery placement. TD could do better if they have an accessible hatch for easy battery charging.
I 3d printed a battery box with a flap and cut a hole in the bottom of the hull. As they say, if it ain't broke.....
Don't mind can show how you do it on next video pls.@RCModelsandMods
@RC Models and Mods, hi mate i have an MN78 and want to upgrade everything to chunky soft wheels and all thr tunning gear, could you please link me to a shop in germany / europe? Or amazon or any thing? Thanks so much!!!
Hi. Simple. Just go to Ali Express and search MN78 and loads of upgrades will come up. Cheers
Hi. From what tank sounds does this tongde board comes in?
Hi. Sorry. What do you mean?
@@RCModelsandModsreferring to the sounds of the tank. What tank sounds is it from?
How do you rate the gearbox to a wpl 2speed? Also are the axles same size as wpl axles? If they are that would be great for my franken mn99
Hi. Yep the axles are the same size; I used wpl axle trusses to do my multi-link sus mod to the P06 Unimog. So far the gearbox has been good, but it's not a direct fit to wpl or MN models. Would need a lot of mods.
@RCModelsandMods thank ypu very much :D
Brand new to the rc world as of yesterday! I was actually pretty happy that I would be able to upgrade this over time. I hope you make an upgrade video at some point. Most of the vids out there either have zero context as to what mods have been done or they used some no name parts that don't work well at all. It would be great to find a good source for good parts. Have some oil shocks coming in today so hopefully they work, the set I ordered when I bought the truck just leaked all the oil out! Looking forward to getting some good suspension going, some softer tires fitted and then I can paint it!
Welcome to RC. Hope you enjoy it
Hi. Does the Cabin from the P06 fit on the 1201? Can i easily change it? I dont like orange :)
Hi. Yes. Exactly the same.
I have just ordered one. How long is delivery please? Inhave used official WPL website. Thanks. Great review.
Great. Thanks. About a week to 10 days. 😎👍
Thanks. Do you think i need a second battery to take with me outdoors? If so, please provide me with a link please. @@RCModelsandMods
Do you think I need an Extra battery for outdoors? If , so please provide me with a link to buy one. Thanks!
Get them from the wpl website. Find the Wp14 product page and there should be a link to the battery.
I jus bought a MN78, I'm looking for some upgrades. what do you recommend and I've bought new shocks already, don't know it was a good idea but I did. I like the video.
Hi. Thanks. I have gone for portal axles and metal wheels and new tyres. 😎👍
What I'm curious about is if/when the body and interior will be released as spares.The vehicles WPL chooses to produce are exactly what I'm interested in, and their attention to detail on their hardbodies is awesome. But I find my crawling sessions hit the limits of their stock chassis designs very quickly. I'd rather put their bodies on an Axial or Injora chassis from the get go instead of trying to wring more capability out of WPL stock underpinnings. And I'd rather not have another WPL chassis laying around for no reason.
Hi. Won't be long before they're selling them as spares on their website. 😎👍
Great Review, you helped me decide on my choice of model to purchase. Who would you purchase the 1201 unit from? Banggood?
Thanks buddy. I have always had a better buying experience from Ali X. Hope you enjoy it. 👍
Freakin love my wpl
😎👍
This was an awesome build. Your videos are always very informative, thanks for the help
Glad you find them useful buddy! 👍
should i buy this or mn78?
This one! 😎👍
Absolutely love it.
😎👍
New subscriber! Great fun video! Make sure Dave keeps the wheels down 😆
I will. Cheers buddy! 😎👍
ok i like the body but i just upgraded my WPL c24-1. I am looking for another Cheap Crawler/Trail scale truck. Ali has sale coming and i might be able to afford a cheap rc. $50 cheap LOL Looking at Wpl C54-1 right now. But i am not sure. I don't get a lot of money so i have to do research before spending $50 HAhahaha
C24-1 all the way buddy
