      Filipe D that’s why I bought the RTR, it’s going to either be a body for one of my custom rigs or I’m going to upgrade the whole rig and use it as a trail beater or as an extra rig when I go out crawling. I’m confident this thing can be made into a decent lil trail truck.

    From what I heard the kit version includes soft tires with it instead of the hard. I bought one a few days ago. It was so cheap I had to buy. For the price of a battery I’ll get an entire rig. I’m excited to see it.

    • @TomleyRC

      Tomley RC I wanted it for the body, but if it ends up being something I can customize I might end up upgrading the hell out of it, bobbing the bed and making it into something a little better that box stock. I tend to take my rigs to another level. I’ve got about 6 SCX10II kits and none of them are even close to stock, there’s 4 frames and tons of stock links, skids, shocks etc in a big 60 gallon tote all brand new components that I’ve taken and replaced with upgraded parts on all of mine. I could probably build 3 or 4 complete trucks with all the stock take offs I have accumulated lol.

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  5 лет назад +1

      The WPL will destroy this thing! It's ok to look at...but not difference in performance to the MN90. Well, the rear battery mount is a bad design!

    • @modelnutty6503
      @modelnutty6503 5 лет назад +1

      yup, MN-D90, with oil shocks and the front wheels weighted (I used the fayee rims so it's wider) is a much different beast than stock. knew to go there with it before even building, just for watching videos of them running. also made a steering link to hit the right side instead of left so it has less bump steer. to get the suspension right did require drilling and tapping the frame rails, easy enough, totally worthwhile.

      I'm not sure if I should cancel this order and wait for the wpl. But I guess the mn model needs a buddy of the same size to trail with. I'll take them all! Specially if they have Toyota shells!

    Great unboxing mate, think these kinda rigs are good for upgrading with scale touches to them, like you have done in the past on Rc Rigs,Ive got a MN-90 coming from banggood , you have inspired me to start doing scale weathering 😁 so am getting the MN-90 to do my own weathering like you do mate 😁, not really fussed about performance, getting it for the Looks, I'll probably will upgrade to proportional steering but that's about it as long as it goes and I can use it on a trail and mess about 😜 it's a great budget scale Rig, great unboxing video ✌😁🤘

    • @TomleyRC

If modding the trucks are easy then I will probably mod it later. I also want to use the trucks in the sand at the beach (not in the water of course), so I need the one that is sand ready

  • @nealeware9163
    @nealeware9163 3 года назад

    You said nothing about the steering. I just got one of these and I found the first thing you need to upgrade is the server for the steering because as is out of the box it is all or nothing and other then that it went pretty well. I think with the right upgrades and shifting the battery box to the tray in the back above the back wheels this could compeet with any other moor expencive rock cruisers.

  • @TheMasterNo6
    @TheMasterNo6 5 лет назад

    Few questions, are MN a different company to WPL? Which is better? A WPL Land Cruiser or an MN version? Finally, is it safe to buy on banggood? I've never shopped on there. Thanks for your time.

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  5 лет назад

      WPL are different to MN, and generally WPL are the better quality. The only negative about Banggood is that they don’t pack stuff very well, so you may experience some damage (I’ve only ever had 1 item damaged in 12 months)

  • @modelnutty6503
    @modelnutty6503 5 лет назад +2

    for me, PASS! MN-D90 was too rear-heavy to begin with and would back flip going uphill. with Fayee 6 spoke rims wrapped 2 layers 2 mm solder, not a problem now. never ran the stock spring tube "shocks", gave it oil filled when assembling. earlier WPL kits have their problems, too much slop in the axle bevel gears being the worst one, brittle plastic especially C-series lower shock mounts.
    waiting on a C-14 to beast out on a budget, dual 130 motor power, tougher heavier wider JJRC axles (diffs locked), the wider offset Fayee rims+tires (fronts wrapped 1 layer), 5mm longer shock rods for some extra flex. the axles+rims being 3/4" wider than stock WPL stuff will have a little more leverage to make more flex happen, and less prone to side tip overs. should be a pretty good performing build for the 45 bucks total spent. my 4th WPL type build and probably my last, they are what they are.

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  5 лет назад

      Yes agree...the MN90 was not good out the box. As for the WPL quality, the early stuff was quite bad in places, but luckily they seem to be making improvements all the time. The new C34 looks like it's even better. I have one on the way I think.... hopefully be here soon!
