I've had a WL 10428-A about a year now. It's a lot of fun for the money, but I love crawling and it's not really a crawler. It does climb better with some strategically placed weight, and packing the front differential with heavy waterproof grease (which effectively locks the front end but leaves enough play you won't break axles.) And put some oil in the shocks (out of the box they have about a "drop" of oil in them.) But the low RPM control is not smooth for real slow crawling, it wants to burn out and go fast. And the controller is not the best for crawling, you need to "double tap" reverse to get it into reverse, which is not good for crawling where you may need to "rock" it back and forth. But it's great for bashing so you don't accidentally hit reverse and strip gears. Other than that the controller is really quite nice. Because of how it performs, the incentive is to use the throttle rather than skill, to bash or rock bounce rather than crawl. So I only get about 10 minutes out of a battery, where my crawler trucks will get 30 or more minutes out of the same battery. --- If you hear something "rattling" inside under the driver, pull the body off. Most all of these out of the box there is double sided tape under the receiver and ESC but they were never pressed down onto it to stick them in place. I have never broken anything on mine, but replacement parts and aluminum "hop up" parts are easy to find for these. Most Vaterra Twin Hammers hop up parts work on it. All in all I give the 10428-A a thumbs up. It can take some abuse, I've never broken mine (though I'm not really much for bashing.) If you shop around, or catch them on sale, you can find them for about $120 USD.
I recently purchased my first vehicle ever, ended up buying a Traxxas slayer pro 4x4 nitro, way beyond my level but wanted to throw myself right into the hobby and you and rcsparks studio are the reason why I’ve finally decided to get into the hobby. Keep up the great work and vids
Kevin I highly recommend buying a Traxxas summit they are great cars expecialy because you like crawlers but if you upgrade your summit to brush less it amazing. I personally have a summit of my own and it has been upgraded to brush less and runs on 6s it goes 60 miles and hour and can still crawl. You should get one
Hi Kevin, I find you to be an expert of WL Toys RC Cars. Am a newby and stuck with a problem. My 10428 was running well the last time I used it. Running it the next day I noticed the steering control is not working. No Left and Right direction however, adjusting the trim with the radio appears to move the front wheels slightly. Please help to rectify non-steering problem. Thank you so much.
Hi man I'm Aj ive been a fan for a while but you hit the winner button with this one i dig the crawler's i have all the crawlers from axial the yeti 10th scale and a wraith and a bomber too the scx 10 is the one i have the most time in im a crawler nut case i had a xmax for a min too but i want to get another one soon i hope i had a lot of fun beating the shit out of it 8-s masterpiece snap on edition i miss it i want to get another one . You ROCK BLOKE !
Yo kev your cheap car videos are cool and help lots of people, but in the last time it was all the same. Always some kind of banggood rock racer, which are very similar to each other. Can you please increase the videos of 6s+ cars, they are wayyy more fun!
Make sure you can still fully turn the wheels, you were rubbing on the 12428 when you put bigger tires on it, obviously compare with the 12428 with locked diffs
Kevin your videos are ace I find myself watching them all the time and love it wen you do bashing you have inspired me to make videos on RUclips keep up the ace videos and look forward to seeing more
Richard "Pat" Fegan. Hey Pat. Yeah it's nice to see that the cheaper cars are getting better. I still need to checkout your channel. I'll do that today. Can't wait till I get my channel going. Still learning to edit, then I can entertain you guys too with some fun content.
hello kevin talbot i would like to know what the best RC crawler i can buy from 1/10 scale under 160 euros i have seen a lot of your videos and the wltoys seem to be robust. Since I bought a jjrc q39 for my 6 year old daughter I felt like having one for myself, I love the look of wltoys 12429 but it's 1/12 scale and I wanted a 1/10 .. what would be the best buy? Thanks for your time and I love your channel.
If you have the budget for batteries and a good charger too, then get an X-Maxx. I love it. Super tough and easy to work on. Runs a long time on 2 good 4s lipos.
No lol if that were true then real crawlers and Jeep's and stuff would be set up that way but their not, they are set up like this with a solid rear axle and most have solid front and rear.

"Wohohoho let's check it out! " makes me more excited about the content🤣💕
Best rc basher ever...
3:25 it was at this moment he knew 😂

For the price point you can't beat that a tall man.
Awesome, looks like a yeti /wraith combo 👍👍
Its a knockoff of the spider wraith but its cheap content for him to make its all about cheap
It's a knockoff of the twin hammers
this is a great RC that can kinda do it all..
Yes you should put those epic wheels on!!
can this the 10428a be bought from somewhere everywhere i try says sold out? discontinued?
I cant wait to see that new crawler with the larger tires on it outside! I bet it will be a lot more capable!
Yo kev your cheap car videos are cool and help lots of people, but in the last time it was all the same. Always some kind of banggood rock racer, which are very similar to each other. Can you please increase the videos of 6s+ cars, they are wayyy more fun!
Obviously the answer is a banggood rock racer on 6s.
I agree with you 100% these cheap rc vids are getting boring!
That's rig is AWESOME and my course is working excellent thank you my brother and happy holidays. 💪
Yes bigger tires! And throw it on an outdoor trail or rough terrain
yes more rock crawler vids pleaseeee
Yes the tires look cool
Kev is the best
Make sure you can still fully turn the wheels, you were rubbing on the 12428 when you put bigger tires on it, obviously compare with the 12428 with locked diffs
A lot of twin hammers parts fit straight on to this car as it & the 10428 are based on it. 😉
WLtoys are great fun and good quality, and they are right there with the big Brand like it or not.
I like all your videos kev
I like when you do videos Just like this
Definitely put those wheels on there
Yes make a vid with the boggers 👍👍👍👍
Thanks kev for always making great videos and always cheering my up 🤗😁👍🏻
This was my first hobby grade rc a year ago. Loved it and at first but it kept falling apart.
Looks like a small wraith...sweet vid👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁
Yes put them on
I want one now that little thing is fast and durable
SWEET LOVING IT JUST GOT A TRAXXAS VILLIAN RC BOAT
Out those wheels !!
Redcat racing tr10, best overall rc car under 100 dollars hands down
I really like the transmitter to it it's pretty nice
Kevin your videos are ace I find myself watching them all the time and love it wen you do bashing you have inspired me to make videos on RUclips keep up the ace videos and look forward to seeing more
I like it looks like a axial crawler 👍🏾
Nice rc Kevin u always make good videos
Your definition of cheap is a little different from mine but awesome video😀
The front suspension is like the traxxas e-revo
I think this is a good cheaper option if somebody wants the Axial Wraith I think it's a great truck
That's really cool the swampers would be cool on it
Oh yes lets see it
Best and most fun to watch, rc youtuber! Love your vids kev. Keep up the good work!😁👍
Thanks buddy :)
ya man lets see them tires and more beatings before she breaks.
Awesome work man really great videos
I might buy the wltoys 10428A and put in a 550 motor I have laying around and 115mm ×55 mm wheels can't wait to see it on skate park or bush bashing .
Found some for 20 bucks more you get cheap it is ebay it's 4X4 suspension only thing is you can't choose the color and it's not waterproof
Can't wait to see it with the larger tires outside crawling
I'm getting one of them, they look miles better than the 12428
Can't wait to see your first mods to it, you can't seem to leave anything stock, like me with real cars,lol
Now ya just need the 12423
Heck yeah kev do the tires 😀
This is the poor man's axial wraith spawn. Do another video kev. I might have to buy me one to beat around.
The thumbnail explains everything about it. Nice review kev!
Realy very nice cars guys and a cool area !
I'm your big Indian fan

Yes Kevin I would like to see the video with the bigger tires
Awesome vid Kev!
Hey Kevin. So many people try to tell you what car to get next. I would like to ask you what your next high end car that you want to get is?
Richard "Pat" Fegan. Hey Pat. Yeah it's nice to see that the cheaper cars are getting better. I still need to checkout your channel. I'll do that today. Can't wait till I get my channel going. Still learning to edit, then I can entertain you guys too with some fun content.
Great demo...
You should do an unboxing of a Tacon short course truck
Nice video kev 👍 get the nitro out 😎
As in watching this I'm working. On my WLToys A959 thing, cool vid kev
You should review the rock rider brushless. it's pretty ok.
Oh look at that
Very nice Kev, keep up the good work with your reviews, cheers!
good job on the vid kev i thinke i might ask for that for christmas

Should I get 2.2 trenchers for my slash 4x4 platinum or go bigger with some 2.8s?
Kev i had a question need you help. I have a 4370 kv brushless motor and a 60a hobbywing esc .....are they compatible
Yes
Please try the reely dunefighter on mini 3 s lipo that’s incredible fast and have a mini brushless motor
Can someone please explain all the different versions of this RC car? I search and find the 10428, 10428A, 10248 B, 10248 C, etc...
Sweet little truck
I'm looking to get a Traxxas RC car I've had two hobby grade RC cars before and I can't decide between the slash 4x4 or x Maxx which one should I get
Well what's your budget
If you want cheap fun get a latrax prerunner
If you have the budget for batteries and a good charger too, then get an X-Maxx. I love it. Super tough and easy to work on. Runs a long time on 2 good 4s lipos.
Iv got the budget for ether one
@@reptiles.rule.everyday7003 then you should get a x-maxx because it's better
Eh dude, awesome vid and awesome guy you are 🤘🤘🤘 Keep your crasy good feeling.
please make a video with that tire i want to see how cool is it
Can you fit a "normal" size 2s lipo in that?? or is it take som modification ??
It would crawl better in reverse because the front is independent suspension not solid axle.
No lol if that were true then real crawlers and Jeep's and stuff would be set up that way but their not, they are set up like this with a solid rear axle and most have solid front and rear.
Great vid kev
I am a sub I love your videos I have bin sud for a long time
looks good! 👍👍👍
Looks like a poison spider wraith knock off
Make video with those bigger tires please !!!
Love the vids
