I just got confirmation from WPL's tech-department that the trailer-truck is a 'go'. There's also a little jumper on the E1's esc/rx that needs to be set to have a single transmitter be able to control both the E1 and the trailer-truck, by just holding the bottom button for 2 seconds to switch between them. Neato. Metal tracks are on their way too. This starts to look like óne seriously fun little toy.
The GT-SM on which the E-1 is based has a very interesting development history. If you have some spare moments, take a look at my WPL E-1 video and see how the real vehicle originated and the derivatives that are still in production today.
Absolute star this is far better than I thought it would be. Perhaps I should get one. What was the battery tester? and where do I get one thanks? WPL Fan.
It's looks pretty awesome. I'm impressed with how well it ran right out of the box. Honestly it looks like it needs a little bit of weight added to it from watching it run. It would be cool to see a metal track system put out for it
I think if you showed someone this RC vehicle with its scale realism and detailing, demonstrated its performance with the fully-proportional controls and then asked them how much it cost, they would be amazed that this is priced much less than some pathetic toy grade RC products. Great job WPL and I'm sure it will be a huge sales success.
honestly i think the people who hate on wpl just doesnt have a reference on cheap rc, they´ve gone straight into the $$$$ rcs and expect $$$$ performance out of a $$ car, while i still prefer my axial i bought used its pretty much just because its more trail friendly, wpls are small, lightweight and slow so they dont really work well for that but i still like them for a run on the garden, they are very capable vehicles for the money.
what i love about the wpls is there is an almost endless amount of tinkering you can do, years can be spent modifying them, unlike a lot of hobby grade stuff that is basically perfect out the box and just wants some stickers.. i cant afford the full on hobby grade anyway :P
What an absolute masterpiece by WPL. I really want to have one. I wonder if the Kotobukiya Hexagear Early Governor would be great passengers and driver on it
Those hard mudguards got caught on your first indoor slope climb and outdoors where you said a crawler wouldn't have made it, if I get one of these, recycled bicycle innertube will be replacing the stock mudguards!
Pretty cool little tracked vehicle. I can't fault you for being a fan of WPL. They are establishing a good name for themselves. I really like my little Kei Truck.
I love tracked vehicles so I bought one, still waiting for it to arrive. I am also very excited for the trailer pictured on the WPL E1 page definitely want one of those to carry my E1 around.
This guy is preparing for zombies or armageddon with his collection of robot tanks. He must know something we do not know, lol. Put a high-speed brushless system in it, Phil.
I got two WPL's...I replaced the batteries with some 2000mah lipos...fried the engine, fried the ESC. They are bad, I use the same lipos in a FAYEE jeep and it runs perfect for over 1 year.
You wanna get that through some water mate, I have always found if you can get the flaps wet it will loosen them up a little and you won't keep getting stuck.
Right off the hop I'll say GOOD JOB WPL. the major issue with tracked vehicles is flipping the tracks off the road wheels. I'm actually surprised you didn't throw a track on your trial run. It must have a spur going up the middle of the track and grooves in the road wheels. Edit: I spoke too soon, 9:51 and you threw a track. BUT you can't blame WPL, that was that rock inside the rear road wheel, not their fault.
oh, for sure. I can see some added weight making it less bouncy along with weathering. First thing I'd do is get some desert tan wash for that white top. Then do a LOT of rust and weathering for the rest. Looks like an epic little platform for some fun customization.
It happens mate, you'd think I get lots of play time living here, sam took me to funduero for a play that's longest play I've have since I opened up 🤣bearly ever touch any of the rc., only just finished my b16 since wpl event (first build ever) 🤣
Think this would be better with a bit of low weight to make the suspension move more scale and replacing the hard plastic mud flaps on the rear with real rubber so they dont grab things as you drive along, very cool looking tho!
Ha excellent. I had pre-order (pre mass public? but not earlier as you mega team bros I'm sure) status so mine is on the way..supposed to arrive in two days..get here faster! Glad you've given a sneak peak since I wasn't exactly sure what to expect.
You need to do a big brother version, converted to brushless 4300kv and an FPV camera. “Your boy would like that”. We’ll be expecting speed runs! Metal tracks? They eat the wheels and things on the other tracked vehicles reviewed, don’t they?
I know im stupid excited for this!! Weve been waiting a long time!! Metal tracks and motor upgrades to support them, my own radio and receiver (heng long 6.0 probably), some lights, maybe the blue and white paint job their b24 variant is.. i may need a couple!! It definitely needs exhaust and sound!! Great vid All Star, use your powers to encourage a tank trailer for one of their trucks!! Ive seen the pics!! Lolz great vids man, always!!
WPL really out did themselves on this one! Even has a 1/16 scale throwing of the track in the end 🤣 Can’t wait for the 4s mods. Hey why don’t you put an airsoft cannon on this bad boy. Or make it launch fireworks!!!
That is cool Phil!! I like things with tracks 😎. I’m sure you’ll twisted up a bit. Thanks. WPL has some nice kits out there. I still have to build my C34 km.😎✌🏻
Man.....this brings back memories of my Tyco Fast Traxx i had as a child! That was my most favorite child RC EVER! I'm going to get one of these to add to my WPL collection. How is motor temp after a full battery??
Love that little transport tank....I was looking at it for a few days now and the price is right.. I was waiting for you to do a review on it and after watching this video and getting your thumbs up on it I'm ordering one within the next week or so after I pay some bills lol....but I AM getting one... They shouldn't call you a "Fanboy of WPL...The crown you sported in the vid say's different...You should be titled "KING Fanboy of WPL...LOL...You Rock Phil....Thanks for the vid.
Fantastic little tank, Phil! What a little treasure! 😃 Do you have any idea of how much it weights? Anyway, great ride and review as always! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I weighed mine at around 0.56kg ready-to-run. If you run it like this the suspension hardly reacts to bumps. I added some ballast into the cargo bay and the wheels moved better but then the vehicle isn't as nimble when driving.
Think those flaps need to be replaced with a bit of cloth or just removed entirely, they seemed to get hung up on a lot of things. But that is a great little tracked rc, thanks for the review
This is Madd Crazy! Impressive indeed. It even has mud flaps to aid in getting you fetched up ! WPL really didn’t miss many details on this rig. Although the canopy should maybe be a different color than white, something a little mor earthy. And a driver inside would definitely be a cool touch! Unless it’s an autonomous land drone!😂 they definitely hit the mark on this, and I stand with you as a “Fan Boy” 👊🏼😂🍻
Looks cool. Maybe he rear mud flaps should be a softer rubber but all in all that looks as good as it seems to perform and finally a wpl name I can remember lol
![The New [MASSIVE] $89 WPL Tractor & Trailer!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/VGg8WM-EFNw/mqdefault.jpg)
I just received an email from WPL about this yesterday and had to purchase it. My first WPL purchase and a steal at only £50 with free shipping.
Neat. Honestly...I think I'm taking a liking to these slower, scale-type vehicles.
Same
i love my WPL E1
its fun and all to climb rocks sideways but agreed struggling on a bump is so much fun🤣
Someone who used to professionally race 10th scale shortcourse trucks these slower rc vehicles are a great breath of fresh air.
I just got confirmation from WPL's tech-department that the trailer-truck is a 'go'. There's also a little jumper on the E1's esc/rx that needs to be set to have a single transmitter be able to control both the E1 and the trailer-truck, by just holding the bottom button for 2 seconds to switch between them.

Metal tracks are on their way too. This starts to look like óne seriously fun little toy.
Soviet era vehicles have the best design, probably gonna get it and add it to the never ending queue of projects

@@BlackSeaRC I will, thanks
0743 in Arkansas USA, great vid Tomley! I'm glad you like it and showed it to us you fan boy all star! Thanks!!!

In the mud test
You've just given me a great excuse for only mowing half the lawn: ATG - Anti-Tank Grass!
Nice video as always.
LOL, ATG
honestly i think the people who hate on wpl just doesnt have a reference on cheap rc, they´ve gone straight into the $$$$ rcs and expect $$$$ performance out of a $$ car, while i still prefer my axial i bought used its pretty much just because its more trail friendly, wpls are small, lightweight and slow so they dont really work well for that but i still like them for a run on the garden, they are very capable vehicles for the money.
Just bought one, can't wait to get it and get some mods on it.
Is it still running and how AWESOME is it 😮
Wow for its size it looks a very capable little piece of kit. The detailing on it looks really good aswell. Well done wpl on another good looking rc
what i love about the wpls is there is an almost endless amount of tinkering you can do, years can be spent modifying them, unlike a lot of hobby grade stuff that is basically perfect out the box and just wants some stickers..
i cant afford the full on hobby grade anyway :P
I’m building an ultimate c-14 right now. I’ve got the URAL 6x6, and I will have one of these
What an absolute masterpiece by WPL. I really want to have one. I wonder if the Kotobukiya Hexagear Early Governor would be great passengers and driver on it
"WAY BEYOND FAN BOY!"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😅
Fan boy 🤩
Those hard mudguards got caught on your first indoor slope climb and outdoors where you said a crawler wouldn't have made it, if I get one of these, recycled bicycle innertube will be replacing the stock mudguards!
Pretty cool little tracked vehicle. I can't fault you for being a fan of WPL. They are establishing a good name for themselves. I really like my little Kei Truck.
Yes, they have some really nice features and none of them are really that expensive for what you get
very nice, Im loving my WPL E1 , i made mine float and water proof
Did you make a video, I'd love to see that.
@@SteveGoral i got acouple E1 videos out, check my Shorts for it on water
@@KlunkersKustoms will do.
It looks like a lot of fun and performed well. I wonder if the rubber treads helps it climb well. Thanks for sharing.
I love tracked vehicles so I bought one, still waiting for it to arrive. I am also very excited for the trailer pictured on the WPL E1 page definitely want one of those to carry my E1 around.
Looks funny,without Suspension.
What a great APC/Tractor that thing is, it's a lot more capable than I expected it to be Phil.
yeah, it climbs over everything
Great release from WPL, i am impressed as well with the climbing ability.
it's such a great climber, i even made mine water proof
Wpl and rgt have good product
It's impressive. Performs way better than many other models with tracks
Yes, it performs incredibly well for its size and weight
I really dig what you did with the B36, making a large stake truck out of it was genius! 👍
This guy is preparing for zombies or armageddon with his collection of robot tanks. He must know something we do not know, lol. Put a high-speed brushless system in it, Phil.
Creeping up on 100,000! Awesome Tomley Godspeed to it! Love your channel fanboy!
Getting close dude. Appreciate the support 👌
I knew it was time to get another WPL, and this is the one!!
I got two WPL's...I replaced the batteries with some 2000mah lipos...fried the engine, fried the ESC. They are bad, I use the same lipos in a FAYEE jeep and it runs perfect for over 1 year.
You wanna get that through some water mate, I have always found if you can get the flaps wet it will loosen them up a little and you won't keep getting stuck.
Yes. Needs a bit of foam or the ‘hull’ sealing before you can go in water
😆
Looks like a great little item for some weathering.
Looks way better then I expected 😊
Right off the hop I'll say GOOD JOB WPL. the major issue with tracked vehicles is flipping the tracks off the road wheels. I'm actually surprised you didn't throw a track on your trial run. It must have a spur going up the middle of the track and grooves in the road wheels.
Edit: I spoke too soon, 9:51 and you threw a track. BUT you can't blame WPL, that was that rock inside the rear road wheel, not their fault.
it's a relly good RC, i have been enjoying mine
What a great little tank 👍
🤩 Iam impressed as well, looks like a lot of room for upgrades, i can’t wait to see what you do😉👍🏼💯 also Iam going to pick one up as well, thanks Phil

The First rule of WPL CLUB, is you don't talk about WPL CLUB..... 🤣🤣🤣
Great vid Phil !!!!
Cheers, and stay well.
I've got one on the way. It'll look great running with my Fayee FY004 6x6 truck! A bit late to the party, but cheers for the review Phil!
This is the first wpl I actually kind of want. This is cool and I’m not really a fan of rc tanks
Muy buenos dias Amigo como estas , muy bonito este tanque , bonitos acabados , tu siempre mostrando toda clase de carros a rc saludos y exitos siempre
Excellent video 👍🏼 I did not expect to like it as much as I do. Super fun little thing
Now yes I can see the all review ,did try watch at work on brack time but was very noisy could no hear ,but now yes I want one too Big up for WPL 👍👍👍
That is awesome , great video Mr Tomley many thanks 👍👍👍👍
Great review as always. I've just ordered one so now the wait begins.
oooh, this video just makes me more impatient. I've ordered mine last weekend. What a awesome little thing
Haha.. they are really good. Only issue I had was the track coming off… but easy to put back on
If that thing had a Sherman or Pershing body on it I'd already have it in my cart.
Awesome review mate! I can't wait for my order to arrive. Well, WPL said it's on the way 😁
Such a cool model,,, I totally agree,,, road to 100k,,, big thumbs up tomley👍
Nearly there dude
I’ve got the heng long m1 abrams and it’ll crawl steep but it gets grass and weeds stuck in the tracks bad
WTF the traction 😱😱
It’s certainly pinching well above its weight!
Great footage mate 😊👍 samax brung his down last weekend looked awesome left me quite impressed 😁🙋♂️
Yes, he said he as taking it down there. I’ve not had a chance to come back done yet. Been too busy with work 😭
It happens mate, you'd think I get lots of play time living here, sam took me to funduero for a play that's longest play I've have since I opened up 🤣bearly ever touch any of the rc., only just finished my b16 since wpl event (first build ever) 🤣
This thing looks awesome, bet your dad would love one to go with his tank Phil !
Yes, he would
Sounds like a TORQUE MONSTER 😅🤘
I love wpl my go brand for rcs just picked up the Toyota fj now ima order this e1 and then the c14 since I got the c24
Think this would be better with a bit of low weight to make the suspension move more scale and replacing the hard plastic mud flaps on the rear with real rubber so they dont grab things as you drive along, very cool looking tho!
Make it water proof even more fun 👊🏻👍🏻
Ha excellent. I had pre-order (pre mass public? but not earlier as you mega team bros I'm sure) status so mine is on the way..supposed to arrive in two days..get here faster! Glad you've given a sneak peak since I wasn't exactly sure what to expect.
You need to do a big brother version, converted to brushless 4300kv and an FPV camera. “Your boy would like that”. We’ll be expecting speed runs! Metal tracks? They eat the wheels and things on the other tracked vehicles reviewed, don’t they?
This runs fantastic! I’d take the rear mud flaps off myself but other than that fantastic!
Yes in the mud are okey
2x 370 motors with reduction boxes and it'd be damn near unstoppable
And probably a nice scale speed
I know im stupid excited for this!! Weve been waiting a long time!! Metal tracks and motor upgrades to support them, my own radio and receiver (heng long 6.0 probably), some lights, maybe the blue and white paint job their b24 variant is.. i may need a couple!! It definitely needs exhaust and sound!!
Great vid All Star, use your powers to encourage a tank trailer for one of their trucks!! Ive seen the pics!! Lolz great vids man, always!!
The other rc channels hyping the Arrma Limitless V2, but not this channel! Nope, we have a WPL here! 😂. Absolutely the best! 🤟🏻😂
Pffttt… Arrma.. Traxxas, they just throw and body on, make a few tweaks and call it a V2 or 2.0. 😅
WPL really out did themselves on this one! Even has a 1/16 scale throwing of the track in the end 🤣 Can’t wait for the 4s mods. Hey why don’t you put an airsoft cannon on this bad boy. Or make it launch fireworks!!!
That is cool Phil!! I like things with tracks 😎. I’m sure you’ll twisted up a bit. Thanks. WPL has some nice kits out there. I still have to build my C34 km.😎✌🏻
Looks great just needs a little bit more weight added so the suspension actually works👍
Come sempre video molto carino e ben fatto 👍🏻 WPL visto il prezzo è un ottimo prodotto in Italia abbiamo un detto... poca spesa tanta resa 😄
Thank you 🙏
Not bad at all for a tracked vehicle. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Would you consider selling it and shipping to states? For some reason everywhere I'm finding the e1 won't be delivered till mid April😢
Man.....this brings back memories of my Tyco Fast Traxx i had as a child! That was my most favorite child RC EVER! I'm going to get one of these to add to my WPL collection. How is motor temp after a full battery??
This is better then what the Russian has now
Derivatives of this product are still in production today at ZZGT and numerous companies offer modernisation packages based on the original vehicles.
"Enough of this tomfoolery!"
This would make a great basis for a half track.
looks like a fun little rig
Hello Tomley RC 👋🏻 ! I find this GAZ 71 cool 👌🏼 ! Maybe a next purchase !? The video is awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Love that little transport tank....I was looking at it for a few days now and the price is right..

Oh boy I told my family i will have 3 RC vehicles and no more.. God..this is so tempting...
hopefully they make some bigger scale cars in the future
RocHobby/FMS/EazyRC are doing larger scales....look out for a 1/10 Wrangler YJ from them
I was totally expecting you to put Adam Sandler as the Bongo Guy from The Hot Chick at 1:50!
Fantastic little tank, Phil! What a little treasure! 😃
Do you have any idea of how much it weights?
Anyway, great ride and review as always! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
It’s really light, so probably some carefully placed weights inside would give it a little more traction on the dirt/loose terrain
I weighed mine at around 0.56kg ready-to-run. If you run it like this the suspension hardly reacts to bumps. I added some ballast into the cargo bay and the wheels moved better but then the vehicle isn't as nimble when driving.
that thing look's fantastic..
So much space inside....to make it heavier! 🤭😉
Yes, lots of room in there!
Tomlley. I miss u .😊😊😊
ha, that looked awesome bud 👍
They would love to have this in the 60s Thunderbirds are go era
Yes!!!! I was so excited for this video!!!
Think those flaps need to be replaced with a bit of cloth or just removed entirely, they seemed to get hung up on a lot of things. But that is a great little tracked rc, thanks for the review
finaly mine arrived to day after been send to my old address love this one nice video today Phil i got make a video to now you gave some ideas thanks
I wonder how long it will be before some tanks appear? 👍😄
For driving on rock rubber is definitely better. But for durability I wonder how it compares to plastic tracks.
I don’t care if you’re a fanboy. I trust your honesty. Plus video don’t lie
Can't wait to get one so excited
This is Madd Crazy! Impressive indeed. It even has mud flaps to aid in getting you fetched up ! WPL really didn’t miss many details on this rig.

Great tank. Cut off mudflaps and replace with bit of inner tube.
Looks pretty cool 😎 Can you upgrade the motor etc and can ya get parts for it ? It's a bit slow at top speed imo.
I want one now
yep im gonna get one :) cheers man
I want to use the treds and wheel base to make a halftrack. Good idea?
Looks cool. Maybe he rear mud flaps should be a softer rubber but all in all that looks as good as it seems to perform and finally a wpl name I can remember lol
Soft rubber would be way better 👌
we should have that low bed trailer pictured on the box
It's definitely a runner. And a climber. Was all good until the track came off. Glad it was an easy fix.
I'm ordering soon I get off work!!
