the other day my WLtoys electronics failed when i was up in the mountain and I had to do the long walk of shame with it, lost steering but I am now going to put all hobby grade electronics in mine now also.nice upgrades
Nothing worse than the walk of RC shame! I recommend this mild Brushless set up, plenty of power, but not over the top. I got 46km/h down my street...so probably 50km/h with a decent run. 👍
will these upgrades work good for the 10th scale model as well? I just got the 10428 for my first rc and already got a upgraded battery but want to upgrade the other components such as the motor ect. thanks :),,Also will any of these "16PCS Upgraded Metal Gear for Wltoys 144001 12428 12423 124011 124301 RC Car Parts" work for the 10428 1/10 scale model? cause i didnt see 10428 in there..
Hey I need a bit of technical problem I’ve converted mine no problem but the stock lights can’t wire up anywhere and due to thinner wires than my aftermarket lights to my receiver it still don’t work so I’ve got no stock led lights did you manage a way round this problem? Thanks

Hi there great video! I am really struggling to find a servo, motor and esc or just servo and motor that will work with this I no mods have to be done. If I change the esc do I need to also change the controller? I will be running it on 2s and 3s lipo. Please reply thankyou
i am planning to do the same to my wltoys 12428 the only problem is that he hasn' t mentioned which reciever he has put and how and i really do need that
Can I just throw in the brushless motor without any upgrades? I have a 2s lipo 3000mah. Mine came with a remote that has a screen on it and it is too cool to replace .

But surprice the brand new set has also plastic gear and again i could not remove the same screw...this time i did not try to remove it. I end up using it as it was , with plastic gear. Do you have a tip on how to remove the screw without bracking it? Thanks
No because the receiver it comes with is a different connection thing and the new esc won't plug into the receiver so you need a new radio and receiver
Joshkboy13 Very good review I actually bought the goolrc ESC 60 amp and I have the same motor as your video. I was wondering do I need a new controller so the last comment has answers my question. I now realize I need the controller, program card. Can you last explain how you control the steering servo steering from the ESC?
No brother the stock elecs have a integrated reciever/esc combo that cant be split. You have to get another esc, motor and a controller to be able to fully swap all the elecs and do a upgrade. Otherwise the only thing you can upgrade is the motor only.
You'll need a micro servo, esc and controller. Links are usually in the description. Here's one thats a bit more detailed. ua-cam.com/video/9fHxmWNymt0/v-deo.html&lc=UgzYHDAKKZ_GkcdRGtB4AaABAg
What motor and esc are you using? The rc car is 1/12 let me now pls I want a brushless conversion with new esc but I dont want to have to get a new controller for that
Hi, i’m wanting to do a minor motor upgrade on mine, even just a slightly faster 540 size brushed.... any idea how many turns the original motor is? Its just a car for my kid, your advice is appreciated heaps!
Yeah sorry, in the early days I was a bit music happy....... I do try now and leave all the music until the end, once all the info and general running has been done. 👍
Do you have problems with the driveshaft? I got the strongest metal one i could find and it broke on the second run, soldered it, did it again. It gets extreamly hot and starts to slowly eat itself.
Great vid my 12428 is new untouched The stock transmitter is terrible is there any way I can bind it to my skyFS gt3c I've 2 channels I'm not using so is there any way please?? As there's no bind plug If it's a No then changing every thing will allow me to bind it to my sky transmitter is that right please ???
Francis, unfortunately you'll need to change the ESC and Steering servo to use a different Transmitter/Receiver. I recommend the Quicrun 1060 ESC, and as for a steering servo...I had to make bracket to fit one I already had. Not sure if you can get a direct replacement thats 3 pin.

If not I'll do what you recormend above thank you And thanks for a great channel hope you hit your subscription target From Frank ,
Frank, you can use the motor/engine that is fitted and just buy a new controller, receiver, ESC and also a 3 wire servo. You could also use a brushless combo (motor and ESC) with a new servo and controller/receiver
Hi tom. I upgrade my spur to metal spur n also all other gears to metal but still running same motor n its not running properly now. U think if i upgrade to brushless. Would it help for it to run smoother and fast again. As it will have more power output from brushless. Cheers
All metal gears needs a bit more torque as it's a bit heavier, maybe to much for the standard motor. A Brushless system will give it better performance for sure. 👍
Strange.. the truck shipped to me has a different stock tyres and has a metal drive shaft. Im looking forward on upgrading mine too especially the transmitter/receiver because mine has a delay on reverse or maybe it's just a fail safe feature?

Muito obrigado por responder minhas perguntas. Eu nao tenho muito conhecimento ainda, e gostaria de saber qual a é necessidade de trocar o radio original por outro? e se eu manter o radio original oque pode acontecer?
O rádio é combinado com o controlador de velocidade. Então, se você colocar um motor sem escova, precisará de um novo Controlador de Velocidade para usá-lo. E então um rádio para ligar o novo controlador de velocidade.

Legal, e esse novo radio tem algum recurso além no do original? como por exemplo: Vih em outros automodelos como da traxxa que tem limitador de velocidade, funções para que o servo vire mais ou menos...
@@TomleyRC apparently my research wasnt enough. Now im looking for the 3pin MG servo to complete this. Did you ever change to metal gears on your differentials?
I ended up squeezing a full size one in as I could find the right size. But seems there are a few now that are the correct size for these. Worth measuring the stock size and then just search for a metal gear micro servo the same size.
It lasted about 4 packs (about an hrs running), although I was not being gentle with it, so I think it should last longer now I've replaced the stripped Spur. It has full ball bearings (stock), metal diffs and stock plastic spur. I've decided not to replace the stock spur with a metal one so that there is a weak point, rather than risking destroying the diffs. I hopefully will get out again with it this weekend, now it's rebuilt with better dirt wheels/tyres 👍

Hello - nice video. Im thinking of using the same ESC, as for motor what would be the next step in power - i would like to pull some rolling wheelies with it ? :) And what do you reccommend for servo ? And controller ? Can you use stock servo and controller with this setup ?
Because the ESC on these also has the receiver in it, you need to use a different transmitter & receiver if you upgrade it. I use a 'Flysky' transmitter/receiver for most of my stuff. As for the Servo, they are not a standard size, I already had one so I'm not sure exactly what type you'd need.
I just use something like this: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-4G-2-Channel-for-Flysky-FS-GT2E-System-Transmitter-and-Receiver-RC-Car-Boat-BE/332534526425?hash=item4d6c9a31d9:g:67gAAOSwXSJXOyY7
Ok cool thanks. How about the servo then - can you still use the 5pin stock servo or you need a new one with 3pins ? If you need a new one please link what you would reccommend. :)
It'll be a 3 pin one you need, I used this one, but its a bit small so had to put some servo tape on it to stop it moving in the bracket. www.banggood.com/Feiyue-Upgraded-FY-S3-2_8KG-3-Wire-Servo-With-Metal-Gear-Car-Part-p-1060092.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN
120a on a 12th scale rig is basically useless and you overpay for amp you're not even using. A simple 60a esc will work with the 540 can size motor without spending needless money on a huge esc that isn't even needed. That esc runs around 40 us dollars. A combo can be had for the same price or less that will work just fine. You do what makes you happy though guys. Take care.
John Salt The stock ESC is a combined one with built in receiver, if you put a Brushless in, you need to add a stand alone receiver/transmitter. The stock Servo is a 5 wire, standard receivers take a 3 wire.
I'm trying to find a suitable 'dirty' location for it, no point fitting 2.2 Dirt Hawgs and driving it on grass or the road. Probably a few weeks yet as I have other projects and videos on the go ;)

DIMITRIOS GYLTIDIS Yeah, much more sensible. The 120a is out of my speed run cars 👍🏻
What scale is this car?
Around 1/12
What servo are you useing?
I think it's a Feyiue FY03 one, although a but small so had to adapt it to fit.
@@TomleyRC Thanks
have you had a problem? or some break?
Since making it brushless a few things have broken, but mainly down to my bad driving!
Top speed with this new updates plz
i did that...and the rubber on my tires torn....what a speed...😥😥
Strange , the standard tyres are quite hard. Usually soft tyres tear. Bad luck that!
Tomley RC Garage 😂😂😂
and what servo did you put in
A random one I had, but best to measure the stock one and look on Banggood or Gearbest 👍
Emax 9258
any new video?
Use hobbywing esc u will see alot difference.
This needs complete rebuild, so a better ESC will be ordered 👍
Do you have a complete list of upgrades? I just got my 12428 and your build on it seems pretty cool
Seriously it looked quite nice and you made it look boring with the grey paint.
Grey & Neon Green go well together. As modelled by the US Olympic team of 2012 🇺🇲😎🤘
It looks awesome! A totally different rc from what u bought, I also have the goolrc motors n esc’s seems to do alright for what it is! Great video!
Cheers Steve, I couldn't get decent run in yesterday, going to take it out this week to give it a good bashing....see how it holds up!
Tomley RC Garage ya it seems like u went over it pretty well so it should hold up hopefully with that brushless power!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
it already has plenty of power
it is not wltoys 12428 it is the wltoys 12427
👍👍👍👍👍👍😘
Change those tires bro!
Proline Dirt Hawgs going on mate, just gotta get the right wheels for them ;)
Tomley RC Garage very cool friend! I actually have the same goolrc motor in my vaterra chassis! Great stuff! Thx!
I'm trying to find a suitable 'dirty' location for it, no point fitting 2.2 Dirt Hawgs and driving it on grass or the road. Probably a few weeks yet as I have other projects and videos on the go ;)
It looked better bin green before you re-painted it.
What motor did you use in the video?
And do i need to do something on the motor holder?
Can i put a 3s lipo to this upgrade?
Yes, should be able to
@@TomleyRC thank you
What servo did you use?
What servo did you recommend?
