Hiya @bug productions and thanks for the comment. Yes I kinda knew it would help. But as much as it did was the surprise! I live in Malta. Yeah it's stunning here. 300 days of sunshine help when running an RC channel. 😉😊😊
@@SURCs yes, you can. I have 3 transmitters and 10 receivers. You just push the button on the receiver and it flashes, then turn on the transmitter. 👍🏻
I actually have a Spektrum 5-channel receiver with avc/gyro (came with the DX5 controller) waiting for when I get my 104009 in the mail from Makerfire. I thought it would be a good idea, especially when I take it to brushless. I'm going to use a 540, just not sure what kv yet. Probably around 4500 if I stay with 2s or 3300 or so for 3s. I had actually thought about leaving it brushed for a while and trying a HH Torquemaster 550 just to see how strong it is. I do have a brand new HH Crawlmaster Magnum 11t motor (175$ U.S.) that I would be willing to trade to a good HW or Spektrum brushless system. Honestly, I have more brushed motors and esc's than I have vehicles to put them in.
Hiya and thanks for the comment. Yes it all sounds doable and a great solution. I like the 3300kv for the 3s brushless. I fitted 3900kv. That magnum 11t maybe worth throwing in before the change to see what it can do. If I could afford such a motor I would try at least! Good luck and can't wait to hear how you get on! 😊👍
@@JohnRobinsonRC yea, I think the Magnum is spec't at 27000 rpm at 12v so it would be fun just to try it out. It'll probably be a week or two before it comes in the mail (in the U.S.).
Ha ha! Yeah I am sure you did! This poor little island shook! 😂😂😂😂 I honestly never thought about using a gyro on gravel before and afterwards I was like "duh!" 😂😂
Loads more to come. 4 new cars in the post and some interesting projects! Loving the future of the channel. Just need to share and grow for subscribers! 😊😊👍👍👍
Honestly my channel is based on the cheaper cars. Two reasons. 1. Lots of other channels do traxxas, Arrma etc. 2. I Have no money. 🤭🤭🤭 But if I had the cash then I would for sure like to review some of the larger brands to see how much better they are. Any suggestions? P. S. The limitless looks bonkers cool! 😉
Be a sport and throw El Cheapo gyro in this one John? See if it's anything similar to the one you've tested now.. Liked the way it handled.. Had my cheeks squeezed watching the car fly off after collision🤣🤣
Great job again wow 🔥🔥🔥👌🏻that rc smacked that rock full on not bad buddy. Hope all is well with everyone there👍John that brushless setup looks very interesting lol I have a total of 43 rc cars and trucks motorcycles but no boats you should hit up Banggood or Makerfire for some BOAT 🚤 ACTION🇺🇸
Hiya buddy. Nice to hear from you. Yes this truck is bonkers on brushless and I love it! Had it as a camera car today and it was too fast! 😂😂😂 43 rc cars mate! You are crazy!! I don't have that many and I have a UA-cam channel! 😂😂 Oh and.... ua-cam.com/video/2D46TACumGI/v-deo.html 🤭🤭🤭 Take care and stay safe! 😊😊😊
Yes I do not know how it didn't rip off that left hand wheel! It hit HARD! had it out again today as I was using it as a camera car and it must have flipped and rolled 10 times, still without damaging anything. Amazing car! 😉😉😊😊😊👍
I know I have rcs that cost a lot more than that wl toys and I dought they would of survived some of thows crashes especially with metal arms .it one tough little truck .how do u find the battery tray is working out I am not sure about bottom load battery trays on a basher
Hiya and thanks. Unless you have upgraded it a lot to over 100 kph or really fast acceleration, then I would say you don't really need it. Some of the fun of the 124017 is fighting to control it. However if it's happening all the time then of course it would not hurt. 😊

So do you think it helped to have a gyro to improve the handling? Yes or No in the comments below!
I have a gyro on mine. Definitely helps.
Edit. Where do you live sir. Looks awesome.

I've put DumboRC gyro receivers in all of my fast cars. Definitely helps keep it in a straight line. 👍🏻
Got a dumbo without giro. Can I change the receiver to giro and keep the transmitter?
Yeah for sure helps Rob. Not sure Stefan I am afraid. 🤔

Oh I Love The RC world.

Hi John, love this video👍👍👍👍 i would mind 1 of these care. Have a fantastic weekend, take care 😁
You too mate!
That thing is a beast mate.. 😎🚗 Gyro kind of made it better i guess but it's got so much power... lol
Yeah without gyro = out of control. With gyro = less out of control nutter! 😂😂😂
Be a sport and throw El Cheapo gyro in this one John? See if it's anything similar to the one you've tested now.. Liked the way it handled.. Had my cheeks squeezed watching the car fly off after collision🤣🤣
Yeah that will be a good comparison for sure! I'll get it done ASAP!

Haven't had one problem with it. Hasn't opened accidently once. The clips are quite strong and hold it closed very well.

Hi John, I am Arif from Malaysia, Do you have video on gyro installation for this WL 104009?

Hiya. Yes never really thought about jumps but I assume it freaks out a bit thinking it's now in an aeroplane! 😂😂

Yeah I should imagine it would. Gonna have to try! 😂😂
