    I love that I can mix and match parts from the LC racing buggy to my WL toys. So far the wing and shocks/shock tower
    worked out for me.

    IT DO CAN HANDLE 3S BUT AFTER A WHILE THE ESC BECOMES VERY HOT, IF YOU JUST WAIT PATIENTLY LIKE 5 MINUTES AND DO NOT PLAY WITH IT THERE WON'T BE ANY PROBLEMS

    I’ve been really into modifying LC and Tacon cars for over five years now. I’ve done everything from the brushed cars to motor swapping them with a 1/10 scale team associate motor. And what I would recommend is a traxxas mini e revo swap. I was able to hit a little over 50mph. While it’s not has fast as the associated swap which gave me almost 80mph for the price the traxxas swap is best.

    Good video. I agree the better product is the LC racing. Like most thing initial price point catches most of us. It’s hard to get people to think past the moment you have the product in hand. Once you have the cheaper product it’s so easy to spend more on upgrades. It makes no sense but we all fall into it. Instant gratification is one of the strongest urges.

    Love your video, I also like the helpful comments. The great thing about the LC Racing's is on 2S they're rockets, but on 3S they transform into almost uncontrollably fast guided missiles. Another awesome feature is they're pretty high quality R/C's, at a relatively low price-point. Just a heads up, T-Bone racing makes protective shock tower covers for the buggy versions if you're interested.

    Cool car. I agree if you don’t like to tinker that’s a good car. If you’re just getting started and and want to learn as you go the 144001 is great for that.
    You can start off mild and go wild. 😃

      Vallone's RC Hobby I also agree that if you want good and fast and don’t like to tinker you are money ahead with LC Racing. 💯👍🏻👍🏻
      As an entry lever car the 144001 is a nice entry point. Compared to what it replaces mainly the 959-b for little to no money more it’s an easy choice. It handles so much better the the 959-b.
      Have a great day my friend!

    Great vid, I just received the 124019 yesterday and its fun to control. However, now I want more speed. Do you think it would be worth it to just get the soar buggy and upgrade that to achieve 70+ mph? Or just upgrade the 124019?

    • @classicvwbugs
      @classicvwbugs 3 года назад +2

      well the 124019 has a longer chassis, so it might be suitable with that car to do the upgrade. But the Tacon is built a bit better.
