Hope you enjoyed this 3 Recommended/Optional things to do on the WLTOYS 124019 to get the very best out of your brand new buggy i would highly recommend doing these small mods. *PLEASE NOTE* On the video i adjusted the droop screws quite low which you may notice i was aware of this and this was for demonstration purposes only you will have to set your droop screws to your liking and set how low you want the vehicle to sit depending on your intentions you may also have to adjust camber to compensate for lowering the overall stance to get the best stability and handling possible for those high speed runs. Hope you enjoyed this video and it is pretty much the same procedure for the 144001 and i have left the link in the description above to the original video Cheers guys
See now that really doesn't matter if other people reviewed them or not. We like watching you not them. So people like me haven't even watched their videos cuz I watch you so I didn't even see what was going on. So it probably would be a good idea to fill us in on that. I'm not being biased but I subscribed to your channel not theirs. Just mentioning that because there's other people out there that might be like I am pretty much only watch you and maybe a couple other people on certain things. See you explain stuff a lot better than some. Keep up the good reviews and I'll keep watching. 👍👍
From december 2021 WLtoys sells the: 124017 version 2,it is brushless 2845 4300K. Motor gear 19 teeth,absolutly no cogging any more. Transmitter upgrade for range. I have one and it is a bang for the buck,135€ incl 2 batterys.
Tough number 1 would be brushless swap + upgraded transmission, then number 2 change the tires, then number 3 change the body to Maserati GT3 and grind the road.
@@beyondRC Hey mate, I bought lot of different tires to test and found very nice tires for the 144001: It smells the same than real car tires, it has a premium foam inserts compared to stock tire, the "print" on it is deep, it has a very good grip for wet and dry asphalt and NOT ballooning on my 3S brushless, and best of all .... it cost less than 1 € per tire and is same original tire diameter (rare). I bough some cheap premium rims for it that are better than stock rims. Very happy, bought 1 then ordered 15 x 4 to get lowest delivery price. But now I realize than even abusing theses tires for more than 15 runs on 3S, drifting every corner, spinning the tires on hard starts and blocking it on breaks: NOTHING on tires, it is like brand new ! So I guess I will have for years of bashing with 15 trains of 4. Here is the beast: fr.aliexpress.com/item/32831563537.html
Excellent work except I'm gonna have to disagree on the purpose of the droop screws. Droop screws are essentially to limit suspension down travel from rest not for the purpose of adjusting chassis height. Chassis height is changed by adjusting preload (shock collar). Your setup there with no droop (suspension down travel) would make the car skip and lose traction at the slightest uneven surface.
Hey, do you think 40w oil would be good for the rear shocks or is that too close to the stock oil weight to make any difference? I only have 40w and I don’t feel like buying anything else... thanks!
Hi I’m been looking at this model and I also seen the 104001 and the 124017 which is your recommendation todo spend the money on this for fun and I wish to add more powerful motor and the interior of steel.
I like seeing all these videos. No discrimination but these cars are cheap as chips and if i break it ill just buy another one . I own 3 one for my 13 year old and one for my 7 year old and of corse one for me and we have fun out the box and it’s more than enough. Only if you are going for speed runs then this is essential . Or just have fun out of the box
Yeah, I picked that up too, he has way too much preload on the springs. The ride height (preload) should be adjusted first by turning the spring collars, the car should sag under its own weight to the correct ride height, with the lower suspension arms about parallel to the ground. The travel limits screws are just that, to limit suspension travel when needed, they are not ride height adjusters.
What tools do I need to grease the difts? fixing to order car now and if I need a specific tool ima order it ,also any parts I should keep on hand from yr experience?

nice , i got myself 124018 with 2 batteries for 77$ , the brushless were a bit out of pocket for me but should be a good first RC car i hope.
Thanks for the good recommendations, I should be doing this once I received my unit.
Well worth doing 👍😃
You cinematography is sterling mate well done
Thanks mate! Getting there! Cheers 🔥❤
Thanks for the recommendations. Will try these tips out on mine once I have free time.
Cool. No problem 😃😁

Still waiting the new chassis to upgrade a 144001 :-)
Hahaha yesss!! Hopefully it will be available separately soon 😁😁

It will work fine just remember these are rear heavy so a heavy weight oil is better 👍
I am so happy with my one of these only problem now is I somehow bent one of the shock shafts so I have to wait till the new one comes
droop is life
you know this! ;P

Should you adjust the spring perch after you lower the car with the screws? It looks as though the springs are compressed too much.
Yeah, I picked that up too, he has way too much preload on the springs. The ride height (preload) should be adjusted first by turning the spring collars, the car should sag under its own weight to the correct ride height, with the lower suspension arms about parallel to the ground.

Hello. Is there a good place to get those droop screws?
Thanks for the video. Just wondering what weight oil you recommend for the front shocks?
7
Hi! How did you remove spring from shocks assembly, or put it back? It was on fast forward, I may miss something.
Hi did you keep the stock 30 weight shock oil in the front?
Thats correct 👍👍
@@beyondRChi what if I have the 124007. Would you change oil in that? And what oil would you use for front ? And for rear?
What tools do I need to grease the difts? fixing to order car now and if I need a specific tool ima order it ,also any parts I should keep on hand from yr experience?
Is there a new version of this buggy yet I finally got some monies
there are brushless RTR versions now. 1/14 is 144010, 1/12 is 124017
Hello, you finished the brushless conversion yet please? Or did you change your mind?
ua-cam.com/video/T_yyyG93jxE/v-deo.html check that out ;)
I am in doubt between assembling a hsp 94123 kit or buying a wltoys 124019. what is the best parts durability and best parts price?
How often should you change the oil in the shocks?
What weight do you recommend for the fronts since the rear uses 60wt fir this car? Thanks
30/40wt
Which brushless upgrade do you recommend?
Any 3650/3660 sized motor in the 3500kv+ range and 60-120a ESC ;)
Why no just flip the metal bracket instead of taking out and flipping the rubber inserts?
☝️🏎💨💨💨Wltoys 124019 is the best ✔🇮🇩👍
Definitely :)
800 Oil WTF. I have 450 oil in my 3.5kg mashine and its still bounci
Nut mom says I can do science me
