Thanks for your video. I tried the WLtoys mini. I enjoyed the cost, and it was fun to kick around with the WLtoys car, but my Kyosho's has better driving response overall and, I think, a more scale look. I would recommend the WLtoys for someone just getting into the mini-series on a budget, no doubt. The Kyosho series is still king, IMHO, for its wide selection and superior handling.
I enjoy this vehicle. I just got it and the drifting is fun. I hope to find some new easier drift tires. The car actually squeals it tires when accelerating and I like that. i am 100% happy with what I got bang for the buck. Fun. Happy trails!
More steer - put the steering link on the highest position. C.O.G. MOD - experiment with weight ballasts. Shrink wrap a pair of quarters and double sided tape it to the front side of car (top of reciever). Experiment with different weights that works for you.
mine comes in today, would you recommend i try the weight thing on mine as a first time drifter? or is that more of a fine tuning thing for someone with more experience? thanks!
I have the little Ken Block Ford Fiesta knockoff K989 enduro one and it’s a little badass car. When the weather is bad outside and I want to get my Rc fix still I hit the basement track with it.
I love the k989 series this one too, I put 1/24 and 1/25 model bodys on them and make custom extended chassis to fit them, 4wd or rwd. Iv made a diy vid on my channel.
Nice little drifter, good speed also, the lights look great, maybe do a driftsession in the dark? Bet it looks epic. Thanx guys for yet again an enjoyable video!
You can try to copy, I even have non-Kyosho mini models, but the quality is very different, the construction, the licensed bodies, very well made... there are no comparisons with other minis. The Mini-Z is more expensive, yes, but they are much better.
@@TheRcKiwis thanks for replying🙏 I got my first rc today(a959b) and I broke the chassis in 20 min a how to change/upgrade chassis vid would be great in the near future
New truck version has LED lights, and a rear diffuser. Otherwise they are the same chassis/electronics as the rally version with the rubber tires. K969 (Porsche) comes with the hard drift tires and locked diffs out of the box - you can buy a set of drift tires for about $10 or 3d print them. Locking the diffs is pretty easy to do yourself too.
You'd have to be bat shit crazy to choose a mini Z over this. WL toys make some great stuff, tons of upgrade options and cheap as chips. It's an brainer really..😉
Its funny, afterwards Ambers like " you take the body off to turn like all the cars on..." 😅 but it is nice if you can reach in there without actually taking the body off
I bought a 284010. The latest edition of the wltoys. I had it open for 2 hours. The passenger side wheels would not spin if the wheel nut touched them at all. And i mean AT ALL. If you turned the nut with a fearher until it barely kissed the wheel, they wouldnt spin. I took it apart and all the diffs were free and clear working fine. All arms moved freely. I packed it up and sent it back for a refund. These things are junk.
@@mcstench8913 gate keeping ? No you've got 3 options literally ... Either spend the money on something quality, buy junk ... Or just don't drift 🤣 The choice .... Is all yours

I put some tiny, glue on heat sinks and a gyro on my 969. So much fun! Thanks guys!
Looks alone make me want to buy it. It's peppy and looks well suited to the parts of the skate park you ran it on.

They NEED to check out the naming system lmao
No lie.
Beaver Hobby put a metal differential and driveshafts from a mini Z into his 284131 for more controlled Drifting.
Beaver Hobby is a master of his class when it comes to 1/28 RCs. His k989 upgrade guides are epic.
thank you guys so much!! this is awesome

Hello there,
I'll take two WLT machine's with lot's of nice upgrade's over a Kyosho any day...Great review by the way.
Nice little drifter, good speed also, the lights look great, maybe do a driftsession in the dark? Bet it looks epic.
Thanx guys for yet again an enjoyable video!
Would be great if they made these in different colours so you can get a few to race with friends

i got the k969 Porsche model, with no diff and damn i like it so much
Sweet as, loving ya vids Chur. I'm not a Kiwi but grew up with many in the neighbourhood as you do.
Great video guys. Truck looks so good. I might buy one!
That’s a pretty sweet little RC. Might have to pick one up and throw an FPV camera on it 🤙🏼

I find it hard to believe the pro driver liked the hand piece/cotroller
One of these looks so much fun for that money
Watching all of your wltoys videos, really make me want to order a couple.
did you end up doing it? mine comes today and wondering about upgrading and things to do out of the box for better performance
@@mcstench8913how’s your rc did you get the one in the video I ordered some for me and my brothers hope they last!
3:27 NICE
Recently found y’all channel nice vids y’all should get a drone for filming the cars
We have a drone and used it in some of our video ;)

Have some helis coming soon too! 😉
The k969 is $25 @ aliexpress for black Friday.11/26/24
Wltoys are wicked I ran 12428 for over a year they take a beating
Greetings from Germany. Can you put a purchase link to drift tyres for the Wltoys 264131
Do you guys stay down south or up here in the north
Great vid!
do u know any places to have rc bashing in auckland
I got one , it’s wicked ❤
Link to the drift tires u put on it?
Wltoys probably got a number generator
Do Mini-Z wheels/tires and bodies fit on the 284131 or K969 with minimal modification?
most AWD wheels from the Mini z should work .
Check out beaver hobby, he's made videos about it
Cool little car and it's great how the wltoys stuff almost always comes with lights
Yes, it sure adds another level of detail! 🍻
Which one would you recommend?
This one or the k989?
New truck version has LED lights, and a rear diffuser.
Otherwise they are the same chassis/electronics as the rally version with the rubber tires.

@@ferfzero4333 thanks
definitely this new version... K989 just has a couple too many flaws that are ironed out decently with this new truck
Thanks for sharing. 👍
Meetool chesee and nats, love it.
Cool Video 👍👍
Cheers mate!
Hey guys. Where in NZ? I'm building a track in Queenstown. I'd love some help and advice to start a RC club. Chur

Pretty cool 😎 guys 🔥👍✌️

Awesome! Cheers mate 🍻

Can you guys do some reviews on Bezgar RC trucks
Sweeeet 🤙💯👌

wish american company can make their own mini- car races
Dont you guys recognize that it looks JUST LIKE the Arma infractions body and the barbons tires they mixed those 2 and the mini z car
You mean like the hoonitruck? Lol
its tiny hoonitruck
I'll take the wltoys for 55 dollars
RC is one of the areas where you do get what you pay for.
Lost the body clips already 😄
...🤭
Eres super lindisima....saludos desde Venezuela..
taking the body off just to turn it on or off is a deal breaker for me

GEEEEE imagine that the tools included with the truck actualy work on the truck! HOLY SHIT!
Didn’t come with it my boy

i mean but what if i wanna drift without spending $200

yes for a beginner but for serious race, no way ;). Mini Z (and GL Racing cars, AMZ BZ, ...) are better but very expensive.
Did you see how well a pro did with it . Get that good dude ...then spend the big bucks
lmao if a pro driver says they're actually decent.... these are amazing little cars. no shot im spending $200 to do the same thing
As much as i like the price point on these rc's. I cannot in good conscience fund the communists 😂
1 hr charge
18 minutes drive time
Considering the amount of material, very expensive!
And why is there a metal reinforcement? For such a light car isn't a metal chasis more than enough?
Wow! Cheapskate. Stick with Tyco.
The upper chassis brace adds significant stiffness and keeps the front and rear gearboxes aligned to save wear and tear on the gears.
If you convert it to RWD/FWD you can run without the brace if you want more flex.
