    Well its FINALLY official! WLToys are releasing their popular 144001 but BRUSHLESS BABY! And YES they have taken the lessons learned from the last brushless issues. This will be fast out of the box! Order here people and use JohnRobinsonRC for money off! bit.ly/36pydF9
    Please grease your 124017 diffs now! I have no idea why I am surprised that there is not enough grease in the Wltoys 124017! It's actually quite pathetic when you think about it. This also is a step by step instructions on how to grease your differentials on your 124019 as well.

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: I was recommended to white lithium grease by someone who was ocd about these things. He had tested it over a month including putting the used grease under a microscope and comparing metal particles with the standard grease and he said there were 90% less with white lithium grease. It can be used on rc cars. It displaces heat very well and lubricates brilliantly. The grease doesn't fire off with the centrifugal forces. Plus the car sounds quieter as well. So I moved over and have had zero issues since. Not one failure on all my cars. But it HAS to be white. The others are for different purposes.

    I’ve just bought a 124007 and haven’t ran it yet! I plugged it up and bind controller the front wheels turned full right (even trim switch full left was shy of straight) and rear diff sounds like C3PO raping R2D2. Going to try reassembly of rear diff! Hope it doesn’t effect any warranty?

  • @Fading-away

    To much grease is a issue to because at high speed the grease will push the gears apart as there is to much in there it doesn't have anywhere to go and under load they can slip. Plastic gear boxes can flex to causing a similar issue. shimmed alloy boxes with some grease might be good.

    If you put a dab of greese between the shims and pinions they will stay on better while you're trying to reassemble.

    The 124008 is exactly the same to, I wish they used hex bolts instead of screws the heads are very soft like chocolate metal so make sure you have a good fitting screwdriver.

    Great easy to follow instructions...is this a one time thing? Or do you ever do this again to a car? Most of us have several cars that sit on shelves for years at a time for every couple hours of use..thanks for sharing

    Hi, thanks, I'm thinking to get me two of those to race my kids and wife at the backyard. Can you please tell me, if it's got ''battery securuty shutt-off'' at 6,8 V fir S2 and/or 10,2 for S3 to prevent DEAD-DRAIN of the battery ? Thanks

      @@FAKE-NAME Racing is great. You'll be happy with the WLT 124017 and 019, namely the remote got speed control button ( marked TH TRIM ) which function as max-speed control and it can reduce it down to a 10 % to play inside :), as we also do. I also got 2x MJX 14210 but they are waaay too fast.

    Seriously you are better off not fiddling with it at all.
    These things are ridiculously strong.
    I have run the pinion and spur to complete failure, yet the spider gears are still as new.
    I did add lots of thick industrial grease just for less getting stuck while ripping in sand pits.

    Is this a version 1 or a version 2? My brother bought a WLToys 124017 from Aliexpress. It was supposed to be a version 2. It's got the gold motor mount, and the controller is a v8 (like a 124007 style). I would be pissed, but he seems happy enough with it. It came with the stock battery, but the seller said the other batteries have to be shipped separately. It seems very sketchy. I can't find any videos talking about this Frankenbuggy.

    • @ssrostovtsev

      He has Version 1, according to the control look („m2r“ is written on the top deck). Version 2 has „m4r“ writing ang slightly different form.
      My version 2 also had problems with greasing. Greasing is must to do before the race.

      @Jet3ch 11 місяців тому

      might want to look at the motor....i also received what i thought was a V1 with old remote and gold mount...but i took off motor mount cover and discovered it has the V2 19 t pinion, removed the heat sink and it does have the upgraded 4300kv motor...stranged but i believe there are more than 2 versions of 124017...i believe i do have some type of V2...

      Sorry that's incorrect. Personally I have used it for 3 years without one failure. Adding to that Traxxas sells it. www.amazon.com/Traxxas-5148-Grease-White-Lithium/dp/B008D9DQ4C
      Any Internet search shows you can use white lithium grease in rc cars. Lithium grease you cannot.

    It's really a shame that you buy a brand new car and which is "Rtr", and have to unmount it all before using it, it's really putting me off from buying it, although it really looks good for the price.

    • @LassoKid7777
      @LassoKid7777 9 місяців тому

      It's not hard to do the greasing but your right RTR should be ready in all regards, but buy it it's worth the price they go hard

      I got 3 battery changes before mine blew the rear, it was after an incredibly hard hit into a metal pole that may have flexed the chassis though. So could be my fault.
