As far as the speed, id say it's just about right for the type of track its designed for. You can go harder of course, but it seems about right to learn on, then buy the upgrade parts and go from there. Im so glad wltoys finally made a 10th scale.
This video was awesome!! Your reaction when it only went 5kmh fast on 3s was PRICELESS!! 🤣🤣. Cant wait to see you get this up to super speeds!! Hope the move to New Zealand is going good so far!
@@TheRcKiwis i know what your feeling! i had to quarantine for 2 weeks as well a while back. IT IS NOT FUN! at least you've got your selves a project to work on!
Great advice on the price comparison between the AE buggy and the WL toys! It would be perfect to start out at the track. Then decide if you want to buy a $1000 race buggy. Thanks for keeping it real guy's 💯
Awesome..video..whanau..looks so cool the Wltoys 104001....u guys have a safe trip back to New Zealand.and look forward for more contend..back in home..And awesome test runs..Arohanui whanau.
Good review guys, Stock is Underwhelming. So many people are hanging for this. I am not. I have 2, 144001's and all the soft alloy gears are justabout toast. I look forward to some local bashin.
Great video guys. Your RC skills have developed so fast it is a joy to behold. I'm not so sure that you can keep using the "noob" title! Keep up the good work. I'm very much looking forward to the RC Kiwis further adventures in Kiwi land :)
It was the brushes in the motor you were smelling. That'll happen to most brushed motors if you run them over 8.4v... it's normal, just burns out the cheap motor faster 😁 great video though, can't wait till mine comes in
What is the max temperature for a motor speed running you say is ok? I’m just starting out speeding running with this car and have a 7800kv motor I’m about to install and some mod1 gears . If you could let me know the top temperature for esc and motor you’d think I’d on that be awesome
I rarely find brushed systems do more than 2S. Most likely over heated the motor from the extra voltage which probably damaged the coils. Hence why it was fast at first and greatly slowed later.
We will also miss it here! 😢 but we will be back towards end of this year once flying starts back up! We are excited to bring some NZ content very soon! We leave Hong Kong in 2 days! Then have 14days quarantine... cheers! 🍻
Great video. What would you suggest for city bashing? Currently have a redcat blackout xbe pro but would like something like the lasernut U4 caught my eye. The front end would be better since it has no bumper to get in the way of a curb jump.
@@TheRcKiwis I got a lasernut lol. Anyway city bashing for me Anyway is parks, parking garage, sidewalks, roads (when empty only) down stairs. Turning a parking lot into a race track. Once I get mounting a camera figured out there will be video of me enjoying rc cars no matter where.
Not a bad R/C for the price. Throw the stock electronics away, lol . keep the brushless and Esc upgrade in. You will Probably get 80 kilometers, or more. There's a few guy that have this thing going 130+ kilometers. Idk how long the suspension will hold up going crazy fast haha
We can’t wait to see some footage from NZ!! Great video you two. Should of taken the wing off to see if it’s causing to much drag. Granted not the fastest. I know the feeling from playing with the Mojave and the udr ir the sbr 2.0. When I went back to a stock 550 slash I was like wait that’s all it has 😂. I always thought it was so much faster then what it was. She will be brushless soon which will help then time to play with gearing and temps. I just switch a rally st to brushless an it’s a blast. Keep up the great work you to and be safe on your travels!! Amber willow says hi and happy birthday an she’s making you a cake 😂
Hey Robert! We can’t wait to show you around NZ! Thank you so much for your ongoing support of us. Tell Willow that we say hello 👋 and we hope you and your little family have a great weekend 😁☺️🤩 -A
From what you showed esc seems fine with 3s...not sure how many minutes you ran...but from 30 at start to 40 degrees seems very good... also not sure what temps are there also...but seems fine...this car seems to be geared a bit lower than 144001 which also makes esc work less... thanks for sharing
It’s gonna EXPLODE!! So is this hobby!! Daily Dose of Internet used a vid of a hydro planing Xmaxx, everyone is going crazy on his channel!! (Mike Stallone. He makes great content.)
It's most likely the diode that smells like its burning, cause it probably is, and when it blows the esc will experience excessive reverse current. On the 18 and 19 they use a 1.5KE10CA which is rated for only 8.55v. The minimum you need to do to run these cars even semi reliably on 3s is to devise some form of cooling for that diode.
Howdy guys... I've ordered thanks a lot haha .. I now need shelves just for the wl collection ... you mentioned parts problems, am I right in assuming as they release the car the parts will follow ..keep it up guys
I'm so dang jelly, theyre out of stock until late may, I ordered weeks ago and I won't be getting the one I ordered for my birthday may 27th :( somehow they sold out the day they went on sale.
@@TheRcKiwis Hi, so you two are stuck in a hotel room for a few weeks? I hope it goes quickly for you. Just think of all the editing you can get done. The WLTOYS 1/10th has been delayed from Banggood so who knows when I will get it. I’ve just placed an order for a Traxxas Hoss to add another manufacturer to the channel. I have a TRX4 Sport that I love to bits so I’m hoping the Hoss is the same.
@@RCKickschannel Hey! Yes we are stuck in quarantine and currently on day 5. Joe is spending much more time gaming than he is editing (which is driving me crazy 😂) We can’t wait to get out and make some cool videos in New Zealand and find some awesome spots here. We have been close to buying the hoss many times, look forward to seeing your video on it! Hopefully it arrives to you soon. We love our TRX-4 as well, always a lot of fun taking it out 😊 hope you guys are well and staying safe over there ☺️
@@TheRcKiwis Hi, Things have calmed down in the UK now so many people have had the COVID vaccine. Shops are open again finally but pubs and restaurants are still closed. I really want to get the Lasernut after seeing your review vid. I just received the ZDRacing DBX-10 and I liked that style more than I expected. One issue we have in the UK is release dates from the US companies is always months after the US release, which makes it harder to get hold of the latest cars for content. Great to see all your hard work paying off and you have made some fantastic progress with the channel. To the moon as Kevin T would say.
Thank you so much for your support! 😊 We love the lasernut, if you have a u4 racetrack nearby it is a must have rc for your collection. Joe is currently building a tekno eb48 2.0 - can’t wait to try that out at the track. 😊 Cheers 🍻
The reason why the buggy is kind of slow is because they are trying to make it professionally track ready like the Losi mini-B buggy they race it at my track STOCK or you CAN'T race
They are moving to New Zealand. Cause they’re intro is “all around the world” but corona kinda stopped that. But restrictions are easing up I think, so they can go places now.

Brushed is better low end track torque not top end. That's why they're still used in crawlers with loads of turns for that grunt work
just purchased one today.
Hope you enjoy it!😁🍻
Welcome home guys 🤗😁 that's in advance before you touch down on new zealand soil 😄
You got some muscles ;)
Amber is pretty muscly 😁💪
What size did the battery fit?
Brushless fans should be running full time 😁
Yeah.... the smell will be the coils in the motor. Too much current not enough limit 😁
