- Speed shoot out between the 2 upgrade WPL transmission. This just a straight up speed test and won't give actual climbing power or stall torque. But hey at least we know the speed difference now.

Thank you for this video it helped me make my decision I'm getting the two speed in metal gears
Thanks! I wasn’t sure which way to go!
Excellent, thanks. I'm only interested in crawling so the metal box and 370 it is. Cheers.
The 2 speed trans does have bushing that can have bearings installed. Just finding the right size might be hard. But looks as though the bearings in the wpl metal upgrades kit may fit.
Not sure which 2 speed you have. There are 2 with slightly different design. Mine doesn't have bushings. The plastic case flares up and holds the steel gear shaft in place. The plastic flare is about 2mm thick around the steel shaft.
Here's the inside of mine at 5:57 ruclips.net/video/rAF37VFxwPQ/видео.html
It's the same as the one you show in the video with spring return. 2 versions one with spring return and one without. In your video I see the bushings. They are flush with the case and same color as the case and I didn't know either until I took the whole gearbox apart and one of the bushings came out with the shaft.
I just checked again. 2 Of the shafts have bushings. The other 2 are just into the plastic case. It does look like they are the same size as the axle bearings. I still prefer the single speed over the 2 speed trans.
Nice. I have the metal gearbox on the way but I'm going to take off the reduction box and direct mount a brushless for my prerunner build. Not trying to win speed runs just want a faster one in 2wd to changed it up! These things are addicting!
Thanks for this great comparison!
Thank you for good video!
Thx! Im going for the single speed
Amazing
yeah! we love dual speed gearbox!!
Yeah GREAT VIDEO! So simple, yet so much information ! Is it possible to mount a 2 speed transmission onto the 1 speed aluminum tranny??
Very helpful info. Many thanks.
Sigh...Its really hard to choose between two because both advantages are nice to have. Now I am wishing that someone will eventually come out a 2 speed aluminum gearbox for the WPL.
Now they make one. www.banggood.com/WPL-B16-B24-B36-C24-C34-JJRC-Q65-MN90-MN45-Rc-Car-Upgraded-Metal-Speed-Change-Gear-Box-Set-p-1504577.html?rmmds=search&ID=224&cur_warehouse=CN
I was wondering what performance increase would be given on the single speed gearbox using a 2S Lipoly instead of the supplied 6V Nicad. With the 6V Nicad the C24 covered the length of my entrance hall in 19 seconds, with the 2S Lipoly 15 seconds. So it's about 25%. I have not checked if the motor would heat up too much with 2S.
Thank you this video was really helpful I was about to buy the 1 speed I wanted faster haha almost bought the single bc its stronger but I assume the 2 speed will be strong enough
Great! Thank you!
Is there a switch to change a gear on a stock remote?
I know what axle ratios I need for my 3 full-size 4x4s but no clue on the Rc side , just got into it.
I got the rtr but have been upgrading it slowly. I was wondering what controller and esc and steering servo I should get to be able to run a lipo. Also I just ordered a single speed 370 w aluminium gearbox.
With the single 370 do u to get a new remote like u do with the Two speed,or at least i've heard u have to get a new remote for a two speed
Why?
Great informative video.
Do you have any idea what speed the gearmotor in the aluminium transmission runs at, the outgoing shaft of the first gearbox if you know what I mean. Because there are many speeds of this gearmotor, so you could change the motor to get more or less speed.
Also, what is that blue/grey/yellow transmitter you flashed by?😁
Thanx again for this video.😀👍
I think your asking for rpm's or turn count of the the motor and the geared portion output ratio. There's no markings on the motor or the gear reduction so no idea, sorry. The transmitter is an 3 channel Arrma ATX-300 I picked up cheap for use with the 2 spd. gearbox.
@@everydayrc1783
That is exactly what I'm asking 👍
Since that is a standard 25mm gearmotor is it not?
There are quite a few different ratios to choose among. And from what I've seen the aluminium gearbox itself contains 3 identical gears, that of course means that it's actually just a transfer case.. The real gearing is done by the 25mm gearmotor.
Thanks for your answer.👍👍
@@ernsteliden6719 Yes its a 25mm geared motor but has no ratio marked on it. The gearbox is like you said 3 identical sized gears so 1:1 input/output with all reduction done by the geared motor.
Full throttle?
Thx. 2-speed cool, but it is replace transmmiter and receiver?! Sorry my english, i from russia.
Not sure what you mean to stay. But I think your asking about the radio gear. Both trucks were kit version. One is using a Tactic radio and the other is using an Arrma radio.
Yes when u have the 2 speed you need a 3 channel transmitter so you can change gears from radio. But you can still install and just shift gear manually with stock radio gear. Hope that helps 😊
@@RunThatRC о, спасибо, братан! Oh, thx, bro!
3 chnl transmitter require for control the gear change servo... Its easy.... Simple but better if they release the 2speed change gear metal version
thank you...
No problem. I may slap together a B36 and install the stock trans until the 370 aluminum gets here I ordered for it. I'll run the test again with the B16 2spd vs the B36 stock trans.
I have a stock B16 with 180 (?) motor I guess. Can I run alu 370 gearbox with stock receiver? Or it gonna fry?

is there a way to get a 2 speed that has stock gearing as high and a lower, granny gear, for low?
Wpl 2speed gearbox has an amazing granny gear and the high gear is very similar to the stock gearing.
I added a single speed gearbox with the metal drive shafts and metal axles my rear keeps hopping up and down can you tell me what might be going on
Your rear driveshaft is most likely not lined up properly. If they are slip shafts and once out of the truck they come apart by sliding them. Make sure the eyelets on the two pieces of shaft line up the same and one isn't turned 90 degrees when slipping them together. Looking down at the shaft on the work bench you should see both eyelets on the shafts facing up.
Thank you so much you don't know how many youtubers I've asked this question and nobody has responded 😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏
What ESC do you use?
Great video, but question. What if you want the speed of the 2 speed and the durability of the metal trans?
You buy 2 speed with metal gear
Is that metal 2 speed available?
If so by who ?
Do you need a 2 speed tranny to crawl in the rocks / mud ?
In the metal single speed is the reduction box also metal geared?
Not sure. Next time I have it out I'll have to see if I can pull it apart.
Ok I had the gearbox out while doing the upgrade links. I pulled apart the reduction box. They're metal gears but not sure what metal the are. There's no bearings and only one gear shaft is supported by a brass bushings. The other shafts are mounted into the aluminum case. There was plenty of grease in there to. If anyone takes it apart be prepared for the little gears to fall out. It took me a couple tries to get them back in proper order. Also the output shaft of the reduction box is 5mm using a 46 pitch 5mm pinion, the other 2 pinions that make up the gear box are regular 3.17mm 46 pitch. I forgot to count the tooth count on them....
Sweet! Your the first one to dig that deep into that trans I believe. Thank🤙
Do you need to get a better esc and battery before you upgrade the trans? I found a 2 spd trans with a metal drive shaft, 370 motor and a servo and I want to put it in a completely stock c24 rtr. Would that work?
U need to change esc at least , 10A the red esc in a transparet folia for example will fit perfect , i am not sure about battery but u can buy a set with a charger just a little bigger one oryginal wpl (blue colour) and for two speed gearbox u need to have 3channel transmitter with remote control.
Which one crawls the slowest
To answer your question and then some. Crawling you'd be using low gear in the 2 spd. so crawling speed would be about the same with the single speed having a little more power due to its better motor. The 2 spd does mount just a tad lower so could get hung up a little easier. Now between the 2 trucks I'd take the C24/C14 over the B16 every-time. The B-16 turns about the same as the Titanic, the extra axle is just one more thing to get hung up on and it doesn't have much suspension articulation. It does bridge gaps better and can climb a steeper loose grade. Anyway I prefer the C14 for crawling and its cheaper to upgrade. I just did another C14 crawling video ruclips.net/video/MaRe9qlUbSE/видео.html it just snowed so once it melts I'll do another similar with the B16.
@@everydayrc1783 thanks alot for your valuable feed back brother.
すばらしい😊
I only want lower gears as well, stock is too fast like a hyper puppy
