We brought one in kit form for my eldest boy's first RC build. So good I brought another for myself. With the kit you get sway bars with it and coated shocks. Thanks for the review.
They are awesome!
What a big load of fun to watch this awesome truggy on that slide-gravel track! Pro review with some soul, Tomley!
I put that thing right on my list and added a sub to your channel! ;-)
Thanks mate. Appreciate the support 😎👌
Glad to see this video and glad to see you love it! I got the Pro kit version, and the LC12B1, and love them both. Have loads of gear and plans for them both! LC is def on my love list. With the 19t pinion and 2s, the truggy hits nearly 42mph! 57.9 on 3s! Great cars! Can’t wait to see what you do with them! You drive better than me!
I really like how it drives! Would love to get it to a track
@@TomleyRC -yeah, some track time would be awesome. I’m building a speed run car out of the buggy.
Great content, great quality/videos, imo one of the best on Utube.
That track is brilliant!
Looking forward to seeing the new WL Toys unit in a comparison video :)
I just finished converting my 144001 to Surpass hobby 60A brushless kit. It made 51.4 mph with stock 1500mAh 2S lipo at only 8.2V charge level. With stock wheels and gearing. Also made 3D printed magnetic body mounts and stainless top chassis deck without the step to fit thicker battery used A979B body to fit the ESC. And replaced hubs with aluminum hubs and hub carriers. Got the thicker shock towers. And got Dumbo rc radio with gyro. I like it very much now and it is capable to 3S 😁
They are certainly very tuneable! Love the 144 platform
In my humble opinion the best basher the lc racing makes is the sct emb dessert truck with the plastic chassis version and the kamtec sct body shell. I've beat the crap out of it for past 3 years on upgraded electrics .. You need slight play in them for stability as if you take the play out of the wheels they can get very twitchy unless you carpet racing them,then you want to tighten things up a little 👍👍 I got 5 lc's and love them 👍👍
This little thing is insane Bro
In the states these are sold by NitroRCX as the Tacon Bulwark...picked one up as I already have a fleet of the 1/14 Tacons (a couple Thrillers and a Valor) and it's by far my favorite of the bunch. The stability, the speed, the metal bits everywhere. Fantastic product. Your review pretty much sums it up. Can't recommend the EMB-T/Bulwark enough.
I ordered a 1/10 buggy from nitrorcx,its brushed but I don't have tracks or skate parks near me to run on so brushed works for me. It is a fantastic buggy for only like $135. I wrecked it last weekend and there are loads of spare parts that are cheap
@@dennisnothstein1311 nitrorcx, warrenrc, riptiderc all carry parts.
Check out RED ROX RC channel. Tacon Bulwalk is one of my favorites.... mine has aluminum hop ups and T bone bumper, wife's is stock and 6yr olds brushed Soar is stock
Warren Rc in Michigan is the main seller for the lc racing version state side. Great people to deal with and they sell it kit version as well with electrics or without
Put that wing on my 144001 really helped with high speed stability.
Nice truck.
I suspect they ship with those batteries as some countries get runny with Li-on and Li-po batteries. Wish they would standardize on one battery connector though (xt60.... Was what we standardized to in nerf till the xt30 came out, so i have lots of xt60 2s and 3s lipo packs....)
I’ve ran hundreds of batteries through mine, both 2s and 3s and the only durability issues I’ve ran into are the axles bending. And I think I’ve don’t a diff or 2 but I also run paddles on it sometimes which puts a high load on the rear diff. Highly recommend this car
I'm so glad you reviewed this before 'Mr Tumble Wumble' and gave it an honest review. I have one of these and love it. I've also converted my 144001 to a mini truggy using the LC truggy parts. They are brilliant little truggies and take a shed load of abuse. Top video 😎👍🏽
Yes, it's an absolute pleasure to drive! I've stuck some foams on, geared it up a little and will give it a good run 'on road'... love it!
I'm sure you know this Phil, but you can install droop screws on the arms to lower it for speed runs, the holes are already there😎
@@ResurrectionRC Yes, already have them in my 144001 :)
@@TomleyRC -don’t know if you can get them in England, but I’ve just ordered some SpeedTreads Antic Foam SC (DTXC2923) tires. They list as 3 inch OD so your can keep a bigger diameter foam and still gear up.
Okay, Okay, Enough! You talked me into it!
I decided to get the kit version. I haven't built a kit from the ground up in ages. I also ordered the monster truck tires for the added ground clearance. Since I wasn't able to use your affiliate link I'll just have to buy you a cup of coffee.
Don't forget to directly compare the WL Toys 144001 as well as that purple one with these. Quite a few seem to write off the LC because of the higher price with some parts looking near identical, not realizing it is of a different caliber. Room for both but anyone that plans to go brushless from the start would be better served by the LC... Unless they wanna speed run for high RUclips views :-)
The LC Racing quality is amazing. Enjoy your kit :)
Nice driving Phil. I bought the Kamtec shell for the LC Racing EMB-SC hoping it would fit my WLToys 144001 but's it's longer. No use to me so let me know if you want it as it'll fit your new toy
Awesome video! Great car, great review, great work Bro!!! Yeeeaaah!!
Thanks mate
Good call boss. Got the Christmas presents for the nephew now
Lucky Nephew!
@NOTREALLY HANKAARON I can't figure out anywhere what the connector is. It's killing me lol. Ill probably just solder on deans.
@NOTREALLY HANKAARON no way, that's awesome! Thanks for letting me know.
Love the look of the rc car
Great one
Yes it looks really nice doesn't it :)
@@TomleyRC yh
if you like pug nosed looking trucks its a winner!
the handling is REALLY nice tho, and that's what matters.
such a short stubby nose like it got smacked with a frying pan lol.
Very, very nice vehicle, good video! This is practically begging for 3S! 😁
Yes, 3s coming soon!
I don't recommend 3s.... drive train doesn't hold up well. Stripped spur gears, drive cups, diff ring & crown gears strip fairly quickly on 3s... 2s has best speed/torque in my opinion. Front cvds also bend or break under 3s. Granted I was bashing & speed running like a maniac, using proper throttle control goes into account too.....
I get mine tomorrow hopefully i like it
I got to say I'm kind of impressed....
Sweet rc car 🚘
Nice rc car
500th like and another sub. Looks like another one to add to the garage...
Nice 👍 yet another great and inexpensive truck looks great 👍.
Don't say it handles well next time 🤣😜
haha...yeah I always jinx it!
@@TomleyRC 🤣🤣🤣🤦
That really seems to run very well indeed Phil,what a great find.
Cheers dude
I love this little car i am going get one and take it to the same place
It's a good little car.... and track!
@@TomleyRC ye I love going there on my mountain bike
@@ethankey5805 it is northhykem Lincoln bmx Park it not for rc cars but I still use it
Nice!
Lc Racing is doing some great quality kits! I'm planning to get the kit version, did you try by any chance to fit a shorty lipo battery?
Great review! I am basically new in this hobby and found your channel while looking for my first RC and your videos helped me A LOT! I have been looking for Wltoys 14001/124019 then after watching your videos changed my mind and decided to go for LC Racing instead. But I am still quite confused about choosing between EMB-T and EMB-MT. Based on banggood, they are exactly the same but I remember you saying T has a longer wheelbase therefore is more stable. I am not looking for the fastest car out there but instead the one capable of bashing and some easy off-roading. Which one do you suggest? Do you think putting a larger set of tires to T can get me the ground clearence of MT and make T off-road capable or will it just fry the ESC?
Both really good trucks. The ‘T’ is certainly the better handling, but the MT is more controllable when jumping etc...
Nice vid
Thanks dude
Knew ud love lcracing wltoys clones are epic bashers but lc racing hhandles like a thorough breed
Yes, these are something else!
My personal favorate is emb-dth the caged buggy/desert truck
I’ve got that car but why is my motor colour is black not the red one
I hate the connector on these. Other than that I love mine. Changed the connector to Deans.
Nice car with a bigger body will be perfect
I just bought one! You didn't show the hidden jem: the upgraded radio from Batan to FLYSKY. Now it's got FS-G4P radio and a FS-R4P receiver. 4 channels! I can run leds! I am pleasantly surprised about the quality. The thing feels heavier than i expected because of the hefty aluminium chassis. Rear's wheels are already toed in, front out, camber positive. I put in a ws lipo and some touring wheels and it's got suberb control.
The esc manual does not apply to the one in the car. It got my hopes up because the manual says the esc is programmable.
There were some binding issues with mine. The diff covers were too tight and it would rub against the diff and make a noise and slow down the vehicle. Loosening the outside bolts on both front and rear diff covers fixed this.
Haven't bashed it like yours yet though. I enjoy all your reviews. They are uploaded fast and the selection is good.
Hello, I understand that if you use LIPO 2S / 3S batteries you have to program the ESC, as you did if you say that it is not programmable, I am worried about that because I buy one of these cars and I want to use it with LIPO 2S batteries
@@WidmanEncarnacionArellano Actually, on closer inspection I think it is programmable as it says so on the box and on the website. It's just I got thrown off because the ESC manual it came with is for another ESC model. I have a Hobbywing program card but just haven't got around to doing it yet. Even with the program card, I'm not sure if you can program it to accept NiMh or LiPo or if you even need to.
I run mine as is with 2S Lipo and even LiHv and there has been no problem so far. The only thing is you'll need to change the battery connector on the esc to fit regular lipo packs.
In fact, I am able to fit in a shorty 4500mah HiHv pack no problem and get 15-20 min continuous run time. You just need to sit the pack on its side, raise the front body posts and force the body down in the rear. If you wanted to, there is even space to run a regular sized 2s Lipo pack. But then, your left side will be too heavy.
That's the advantage of the truggy over the other models: bigger motor and more space.
@@WidmanEncarnacionArellano After taking it to an asphalt track five times, the servo suddenly died for no reason. Maybe i got lemon. Hope others fare better.
Really want to order it but if I follow link days won't deliver to UK 😔 any other options of getting one
Sweet-got mine yesterday! Been raining since i changed the tray and battery so no real use yet, but 5 mins on a wet road and i can tell it is so much better than its clone. For a start the tyres are better in the wet than the 144001 in the dry. Can you show what lipo you are using especially when you go 3s. Had to swap out the battery tray to get my 2s to fit, and my 3s wont fit at all, not enough height available. The 144001 battery guides are wider and fit perfectly allowing a wider battery than the std tray, but still not enough for my 3s.
I thought the clips were narrow, I had to clip a bit off the side to get the 2s in (A 1500mah ZD Racing one)! Good shout on changing them to WLtoys ones ;) I have a 1800mah Nano tech 3s, and a 1500 40c Zop one... going to see which fits the best.
@@TomleyRC Cheers for that! Im using Zop power 2s 2200mah 35c (well will do when the rain stops) but want to suss out whats the best i can fit! Gotta say thats the one bit of design im not impressed with. Its 2s/3s capable and you cant even fit a std sized 2s without modding it-doh!
hi tomley, i just bought a lc racing emb-1h which has the same engine as this emb-t, but batteries and chargers are not included in the purchase, could you link me some batteries with that type of plug and a charger? because it is a difficult plug to find on the internet. thank you so much
Man that thing is by far one of the best performing and good looking truggy. Thanks for sharing my friend😊 So what size 2s would you suggest a 2200mah looks like it would be a good fit?
2200 would be ideal. This was just a 1500mah one
I managed to fit in a 4500mah shorty pack. Just lay it on its side, raise the front body posts and force the body down in the rear and you're good to go. With 1500mah, I can only get around 8 min. With 4500mah, 15-20 min.
@@Diamondbac Hello, what battery of 4500 do you use in the truggy?
@@virginiahidalgolinan9692 the 4500 is a 60/120c 2s shorty pack with an external case where you plug 5mm wires into. It's actually a bit too big and I have to force the body down. I also run 4200 shorty pack 25c 2s and 2700 short pack 25c 3s both are around the same size fit nicely on their side under the body.
What 2s are you using? And what 3s is it rated for?
How on earth did you get a dislike on this? Yes, Lcracing makes the best 1/14 cars out and 1/12 buggy in my opinion.
Just like i thought
Its not even bad
Usually just jealous people mate. no other reason to put a dislike really.
3s is ok to use?esc doesn't seem like it would appreciate that
Cool
If you were to buy the WLToys 144001, it is a given that the electronics would need to be replaced. It this set up,better or does it need it too?
This has much better electronics
what connecter does it come with?
Hi! Do you know where I can find titanium parts for this truggy? Thanks, Francisco
My EMB MT arrived 2 days ago - its great! what lipo are you using? the connector is so odd....do you have an adapter to switch between a lipo and the stock battery?
I think they are HXT. I made an adaptor as I had 2 of the LC Racing batteries. So sacrificed one for the connector
@@TomleyRC I found one of these on ebay....should do the trick "3.5MM HXT Bullets to T-plug Deans No Wire adapter" just in case anyone else is also trying to figure out which connector will work....
@@andylillicrap9521 Hello, could you pass me the address of the ebay store because I also need that adapter.
Thank you
bout time ! 😂
haha
Hi, what 2s lipo did you use please?
Also Phil, is that track near me ? Haven't found much for us in Nottm, me and Sawyer are building " Frankenstein" from a certain 18311 chassis😉
North Hykeham mate, probably about an hr or so from you.
@@TomleyRC Cool, I'm sure I've driven either close or through on my many trips to Skegvegas over the years 🤣
I like 1/14 scale. Unfortunately there aren't many trucks.
1st RC, UK buyer mainly intending to run on grass. This or the Team Associated MT 10 on my shortlist. What do you recommend?
MT10 :)
Cut those plugs and get Dean's on there!!
Hi
Where can I buy one of these
I live in Kent UK
Many thanks
Tony
What MAH was that 2s lipo you used?
Hello, Tomley RC, if I wanted to change the wheels on this rc or a 1/14 scale in-general,
what size would I look/ask for. Asking as I am somewhat new to the hobby.
I was told by my LBS to not run tires larger than the stock (which are already pretty big!) Anything the same size or smaller should fit since they use standard size hex. I run touring car wheels and this things just grips so much.
@@Diamondbac I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.
Can anyone let me know if the wltoys 14400 A arms are compatible with this truck
I'm not sure. The new 124019 is very similar to this, so it is possible
Looking now at the Banggood and at the specs writes: "(note:the charger is not included)"
Losi makes an even better version of this called the mini 8 T. It is underrated like the MT10.
Yes seen that 👌
Made, Losi discontinued the entire 1/14 line.
@@williamperri3437 yup sadly they are all discontinued now 😔 I use a lot of Mini 8ight parts for my Vaterra Kalahari so I have kept an eye on them, first the Mini 8ight was discontinued then they discontinued the Mini 8ight T and I just noticed last month that the Mini 8ight DB was also discontinued. A lot of the guys on Rctech have high hopes that they are just revamping them. But at this point in time it is anyone's guess.
@@williamperri3437 so weird thing the Losi website doesn't show the Mini 8ight T or Mini Eight DB as discontinued but Horizon Hobby does.
I might have missed it. But, what are the runtimes on the type of batteries you are using?
A good 20mins on a 1500mah Lipo
@@TomleyRC Thanks so much. That is a great run time. Looks like a good buggy.
That park looks great for rc, if you don't mind me asking where is it? Don't worry I'm not a stalker!!
haha..no worries mate. Lincoln
@@TomleyRC thanks for reply, thats a shame, too far for me, I'm Northampton.
just bought the rally version ? on basis of this :-) Hope they are similarly well built.
Yes that looks really good!
They are extremely well built. My friend resurrected a rally version and gave it to me. He had all the parts to build off of a really bashed up chassis that I still use to this day. The differentials still have not been opened, drained, cleaned or anything and this thing has alot of hours on it, despite it being about 5 years old! I only broke the front and rear hub carriers, and have crashed hard into curbs, and walls. The plastics used in these cars are really plyable and have a nylon, but flexible feel to where it absorbs impacts making it superior for r/c. I would rate it close to how rpm products are preferred over aluminum products on certain applications, like control arms. Tacon is my favorite R/C brand and 1/14 scale is very fun. I came from 1/18 scale losi Mini T, mini LST, micro R/C as well. My friend said that him and another friend literally tried destroying the donor rally car which I now own, and they couldn't break it on 2s. 3s was too much for gravel bashing and axles began to break from the tight slipper, so just 2s was perfect. The only piece that broke was the servo. I replaced it with a digital metal gear Savox, custom made mounts, works nice. Highly recommend this brand, I'm thinking about getting the Valor, but I'm liking the EMB-T as well!
@@TomleyRC is a shame they cant put window frame decals on straight.
It is not so tough, I got mine this week and already broke 2 front steering C-Hubs.
(First one was my mistake, but second got broken just doing a turn on flat surface, I was not even jumping or bashing it.)
✌🏻😎🏴are you done with wltoys now that you’ve tried this one?
No, still got more stuff to come from the WLtoys. Have both the new ones coming as well
Where is that track ?
Do you do all filming by just driving one handed and with a phone?
Usually 1 handed with a GoPro.
@@TomleyRC I'm trying to find my GoPro...used it in quadcopters and then gave them a break...rc cars are expensive, but drones are worse. Now I can't find the bloody thing. I've been using my phone, but trying to figure out how to get good shots like you, as you gave really nice footage. I've thought of wearing the GoPro with a head mount, but that'll make the footage boring, unless I start crouching and laying on the ground, putting my face in front of a vehicle going 30mph.
About time indeed! What happened to 3s?
Saving that for a speed run on foams ;)
@@TomleyRC does the system support 3S? How’s the radio and servo?
woud it perform good at indoor tracks and outdoor 1 / 10 tracks
I would think so yes 👍
@@TomleyRC i gonna try it i have the mt at the moment and the truggy is on his way hehe
looks like it could use a gyro looks more promising than rlaarlo am-x12
Did you manage to find out the reason for the difference in speed between the Truggy and the MT? Motor is supposed to be bigger on the truggy (2850 vs 2838) but car is also heavier? Assume you used the same battery in both tests?
yes, same battery. I'm guessing it's geared differently. Although I've since seen someone get 30mph on the Nimh?... so not sure if my ESC needed calibrating or not.
The bigger diameter wheels on the monster truck allow for the higher top speeds. Put the monster truck wheels and tires on the truggy and it'll be just as if not faster.
@@drewnewcomb2909 the mt tires are similar size to truggy
@@brandon6984 no they are bigger man, that added diameter makes the difference of 2-3 mph.
@@drewnewcomb2909 What about the size difference of the motor on MT (2838) vs Truggy (2850)? How does that affect top speed?
Sweet lil’ basher! WL TOYS are underrated don’t you think? The bang for the buck is definitely there. I am definitely enjoying my 024019
" METAL " MEANS NOTHING : STEEL OR ALUMINIUM cvd / pinions / gears ?
How well does the buggy perform in the grass?
Decent ;)
@@TomleyRC which do you prefer more, the buggy or the truck?
If it goes 33 on a 2s, its going to be a rocket ship on 3s.
Over 50mph on 3s.....I got Tacon version and it's a little monster
@@ricksprings hello, what LIPO battery and what capacity do you use in the heel value
@@virginiahidalgolinan9692 Gens Ace 2s 2200mah 50c & Gens Ace 3s 2200mah 50c batteries. They're on larger side, but fit fine👍🏾
smaller tyres , so I bet it accelerates faster
Dude where is this BMX track!
Lincoln
Can you get parts for it?
Yes, it's been out for a few years
Receiver and servo are not waterproof. This is still my favorite basher though.
@NOTREALLY HANKAARON HXT 3.5mm iirc.
@NOTREALLY HANKAARON no.
the original Ni Mh battery is a bit of shit x-)
Great little car, but not partial to the colors.
It reminds me of a water-skiing boat. I actually don't mind it.
Dang it’s a bit pricy, for under 100£ I’d deffo get one to beat around.
Look out for black Friday deals. I picked one up in kit form on the 11/11 sale aliexpress. Got it for £102.00. No electronics though, but who needs another transmitter!!!!
Great looking truggy. 2s top speed disappointing tho.
Yeah, a little, but plenty of punch. I've geared it up now, so should be a little better
@@TomleyRC great stuff we will all be looking forward to seeing that. Keep up with the great reviews.👍
on a shorter track quickness can beat top speed too tho.
Will i go for the Truggy or MT? Torn between the two..hahahaha
Either, but the Truggy gets my vote
Can't understand the batteries, can imagine a fair few folks who buy them for older children are missing out and are none the wiser 🤷
Yeah possibly. Banggood told me the next batch will have Lipos.. so fingers crossed!
I agree. Best 1/14 by far..u get wat u pay for sooooo.....lol
Yep...the quality is awesome!
Buy this, not Wltoys
It's a wl toys
Let's be real
Sorry but for this price or less you get an fully tuned and upgraded 144001 with brushless combo by your choice incl. Lipos and much alu parts and so on
You have to upgrade everything on that this is basically one and done. $200 is hard to beat.
Yeah it’s not expensive when you look at the stock equipment
And still after all that it still won't perform as good as an lc ...the wl wl is a tribute band alright but not as good as the real thing!
Stop saying 'lye-po'.....Lithium, geddit?
Well Mr Holt, it's actually 'Lithium-ion Polymer', So the correct term is 'Lye-po'... as the 'i' is for 'ion' and not the 'i' in Lithium 😜
Junk!
