    In my experience, the surpass 80amp esc is rock solid on 3s in the 1/12 and 1/14 wltoys with the surpass 3660 motor. Top combo.

    Just got my 124017 in 2 days ago. Absolutly hate the cogging. BUT love the car. We ran it 6 batterys in a row. First 3x 2s. Then 3x 3s and motor doesnt overheat esc doesnt. Took a while to empty all 6 batterys. We ran it on loose sand. And made some jumps on a ramp(no high speed jumps) absolutely love the car. Thanks for the link to the cheap esc. Il order one for it. Thanks champ! And I have a 6s arrma typhon and on the stock 14t pinion my wife was faster witb this little bugger on 3s! Its fast! And stable.

      Hiya Jeffrey and glad you are at least a little happier with the car. The cogging is terrible and for us a little too much to compensate towards enjoyment. Of course the issue is now this. If we have to buy a new esc, new transmitter and 3s battery. Why buy a 124017 at all? Why not just a 124019 which is cheaper and swap out the same parts? I do agree with you on the speed and stability though. Its such a good base that its almost criminal that they messed it up so badly. Keep RC'en mate and stay safe!

    Nice and interesting video!
    There is a V2 version of the 124017 these days.
    - Different motor, 4300KV (old: 3400KV)
    - Different gearing 0.7*19T (old: 0.7*27T)
    - New transmitter hardware to fix the distance problem.
    This should reduce/solve the cogging.

    I have a v1 124017 and mine does cog a little bit but any over geared rc will. Other than that mine runs beautiful, on the stock battery I run 40-45 MPH reliably and on 3s with 1/10 scale wheels I break 60 MPH no problem. For the money I think it's the beat and fastest thing there is stock under 200 dollars US.

    • @JohnRobinsonRC
      @JohnRobinsonRC  2 роки тому

    • @JohnRobinsonRC
      @JohnRobinsonRC  3 роки тому

      Yes I have to agree with you. Wltoys have shot themselves in the foot with these new cars so go with the 019 and enjoy your brushless upgrade. It makes sense. The reason I'm making these videos showing alternatives is that there are some people who aren't confident enough with replacing brushed with brushless. By buying the 124017 and replacing either the esc or 3s battery, they have a great car with good speed. Change both and its brilliant speed off this little motor! 😁😁 Have a great day and stay safe! 😊👍

      @@JohnRobinsonRC yes of course. Sometimes it’s not always the most expensive that performs the best too.
      Some are better at low end and some are better at top end. I think the cheap ESCs are more focused on top end rather the consistency at low power. Making some believe that the faster the better. It’s not always the case.

      @@JohnRobinsonRC I think the hobby wing quicrun are about the best you’ll get for the money. Some much to adjust including timing etc. The Ezrun max are also good too be less adjustable with only 9 fields of adjustment. I am going to take that 120a Reedy out though and try the Surpass 80a. Think I will wait until I get surpass program card though as stock settings on ESCs usually have the brakes set too high and are front diff drive killers. I like to set it around 25-30% and then use ABS settings to control how quick it stops.

    Thanks a lot John for your video. I really appreciate it 👍🏻 Just got my Wltoys 124016 and wltoys is really annoying me too! I wouldn't have thought it's possible, but the electronics/configuration in this car completely su*ks! I can't believe it! It's a complete customer fooling. What is Wltoys thinking of?! So thanks to your video I want to try a Robitronic Razor ten 60A 3652 4000kV esc/(motor) combo. I'm looking forward to see the car work properly. But I'm not happy to have to spend money on a rtr rc car to make it work properly. Shame on Wltoys 👎🏻

    Its shows only WL toys dont make their job only want to sell new cars.
    Put in a brush motor with crapy ESC. No improvment in RC parts cars goes much faster and you lost the control because of the range of a kiddytoy. Tires are fucking bad fo this speeds.
