Just a note to say the axles are plastic...I obviously need glasses...or a magnet! 🤣🤦 If you'd like to see it on the same trail runs my 1/10 scale rigs take on, with mud and water, check out this video. ruclips.net/video/AgtqPUkInr4/видео.html
I've put off getting one forever. And its now become an iconic RC. I have no idea how many have been sold, have been modded and personalized. It's an important RC.
I got one and ran the piss out of it for a couple of months stock. The stock gearbox gave up. I got the 370 two speed and that has been good for a while now, going strong. Put the metal axles and links on it. Had to replace the steering servo recently. Also got the RES v3 electronics . They make the low speed crawl control really good, very predictable. It’s a lot of fun.
That's some really useful info, thanks very much. I don't have high expectations for it, just see how it goes and what it's like with upgrades. I was considering the two speed but may just go 370 single speed. I've ordered portals, new shocks and wheels and tyres already as the first upgrades. 👍 Thanks very much for watching and commenting. 👍
I quieted the suspension on mine by using really small o-rings where it mounts to the frame and they also help to keep the hardware from getting stripped through over tightening.
Thanks very much for the info and great idea. I was planning on using a washer or something to do the same, as the stock fitment isn't great. I've ordered different shocks with springs so will do it when I fit those. 👍 Thanks very much for the comment. 👍
I have a C-14; C24-1 with a C54 body; C44KM; D-12. For the money,they really are quite decent little rigs,which you can upgrade as much or as little as you wish.
Sounds like a nice collection you've got there. 👍 Yeah I was surprised how well the rtr performed for the money. I've taken it mudding, deep water and trail runs. 👍
I have two of these, a C24, and a C24-1 like the one in this video. There's A METRIC BUTT TON of mods for these. Both of mine are heavily modified with a C24-1 having been upgraded to a two-speed, controller shift, 380 motor. I love these little things. These are our Father and Son bonding hobby.
We have a serious inflation problem, these trucks now cost $75. Pretty alarming considering this video is only a year old. Every price is going up fast and i'm not just talking about RC trucks
For everyone that is still blind... inflation and shrinkflation is a hidden tax on the people and is out of control! DO NOT EXCEPT OR COMPLY WITH THE COMING NEW WOLD ORDER, RESIST!! THIS IS NO JOKE!
I’d say it’s well worth 50$ just from watching your video. It surprised me for sure. As a trail truck I’d definitely get one then maybe experiment with it .
Yeah, for $50 it seems decent. Plus upgrades are cheap and plenty of them. I've got a trail, mud and water run dropping tomorrow, so you can see what it's like on a trail my 1/10 scale rigs would normally do. 👍
I have toyed with the idea of getting one mostly to just strip it all down and weather it and dent it up to make it look like a proper old truck running around in the woods! At around 50 it is kind of hard to resist!!
Yeah, it's a decent hardbody and could look really cool with some weathering etc and accessories. You can get it even cheaper than $50 too! Tbh so far I've found the one 650mah battery lasts long enough for a little trail run. Plus it's so small you can just carry it home! 🤣 I've got a proper trail run video dropping on Wednesday, so hopefully that will give a better idea what it's like on a proper trail run with mud and water. 👍
For the price the performance is great. The tires could be a little more soft. But this white body gives a lot of options for customization. Thanks for showing👍
I love that rc. I just recently did my own review of it, its also my first crawler as ive always been an rc basher before. I dont know if it was my best review, but it was the most fun I've had doing a review so far. Nice job on yours btw. Great video!
Im pretty new and ordered similar items just wondering if most name brand upgrades fit scale to scale or are they mostly proprietary ? / certain "off brand" parts ?
@@midgemaniaflyfishing they are mostly proprietary, some parts do fit brand to brand though, but I'm not sure if on this RC. But this crawler does have a lot of upgrades available to it, an impressive amount at that.
Got one of the originals it was a kit, now has all metal parts and single speed gearbox with brushless motor and spectrum reciver. Working on a patina paint job now
Surprisingly good, stock. Had mine a while, all I've done to it is add 7 grams of copper wire to each wheel. Lowers the centre of gravity brilliantly. The o rings help with the rattle. ❤
Yeah I was really surprised, I've used mine for mudding too and still works. Still need to upgrade mine, as want to change electronics and suspension. 👍
@@DoURCI put the 370 motor in mine with the upgraded electronics and the 2 speed transmission, I also put on 1/12 scale wheels and have metal axles, steering links, control arms, driveshafts, and better springs on the way
Thanks very much 👍 Hope you enjoy it. Tbf they're not bad fir the money, definitely toy grade, but better than other cheap stuff you'd get in a shop. Lots of upgrades available too. 👍
I took it for a mud run and proper trail run the other day and I was surprised how well it did. Yes it's cheap and out the box not amazing, but definitely worth considering if you're just looking for something cheap or say something for the kids to get them into the hobby. 👍 Thanks very much for watching and commenting. 👍
Like you I have a lot of very good crawlers most 1:10 scale but there’s something about these little trucks I don’t expect it to an incredible climber but I bet with some mods it would be a much better performer I do see they have all metal chassis that match the body for under $200 I don’t think it has electronics but it comes with the wheels carbon chassis rails & every part is metal it’s super high quality.
Yeah, they're super cheap and tbh not too shabby for the price, as you say upgrades are cheap too. I haven't managed to get around to it yet, but will be upgrading it soon to see how cheaply it can be made closer to hobby grade. 👍
I bought 3 of these since its cheap its good to abuse but not that good for investment. Its good if you're just starting getting hooked on rc since its cheap I guess.
Yeah, it's just interesting to see what the really cheap stuff is like compared to other brands. As with most things in life, you can throw money at anything and make it better if you want too. 👍
@cannabisoutlawz894 Yeah I would imagine so, I like tinkering though and wanted to see the difference and see what upgrades would make a noticeable difference. Its very much a toy grade RC, even my KM B16 I would class as toy grade really compared to hobby grade RC'S. 👍 It's fun to try different stuff though and I like the 1/16 scale size. 👍
@@DoURC yes,they're both good trucks was just saying its cheaper..and they are definitely not full hobby grade..but for the price you cant beat the performance..happy trailing bro
@cannabisoutlawz894 Yeah totally agree, for the price they're a cool ornament at least! 🤣 I'm really enjoying using them, plus it's given me a chance to try other things like weathering, I would have been less inclined to do on my expensive rigs. 👍
Pretty late to this video but i really want one of these. I think a body it super cool looking. Probably a really fun trail rig. I want to paint it and make i look rusted and weathered
They are cool little rigs, definitely need some upgrades though. 👍 If you check out my Whats on the Bench playlist, I did just that to mine, weathered it. 👍
Got to love a 6x6. 👍 Yeah I found the little motor struggled with obstacles without some wheel speed. I'd like to try the 370 motor and see what that's like. 👍
Yeah the same. You can get them for about $25 sometimes on Aliexpress etc. I actually think these older models are better than the newer WPL models. The MN82 etc is better though. 👍
I changed the wheels and tyres, but otherwise it's still stock. Project got sidelined for a while. You can get the 370 motor with 2 speed gearbox though, which I have sat on my shelf! 🤣🤦
Yeah. I haven't tried their V3 electronics yet but maybe they're better? Yeah definitely seems like a decent starting platform, especially for kids or if you're looking for a cheap hardbody. 👍 I'm going to modify it and see how good it can be on the cheap, then compare to my other rigs. 👍
I haven't tried any others yet, as still running all stock. There's quite a lot of space in there though and as they're quite light, the stock battery lasts quite long. 👍

I just got one for Xmas and it ran great for about 3 days then it stopped working. Not when I go to turn everything on it will run sluggish for about 3 seconds then the headlights will start flashing as if its not connected to the controller. I put fresh batteries in both truck and controller but its the same problem. I did not run it hard. Just inside the house for the first few days. Any advise before I return it for a full refund?
Is the battery definitely charged, as sounds like a flat battery in the RC to me. Try fully charging the battery, then turning transmitter on first, then RC and try again. Give the battery a good few hours of charge. 👍
@DoURC So I let all 3 battery 🔋 packs charge overnight. But something I am noticing is that when I unplug the charger with all 3 batteries attached the green light is still on. Now I am thin the charger is 💩
@mrobinson57 I definitely wouldn't leave your batteries charging over night, you always want to supervise charging batteries, especially cheap ones. 😬 Just charge 1 at a time and the light should go out. Are you using the USB charger that came with the RC?
@DoURC with 3 splitters for the 3 battery packs. I have it unplugged right now with 2 battery packs attached to it and the green light is still on. Must be the charger....
@@DoURC Wow, thanks Bro! Is that just another name for a printed circuit board, or is it a whole separate thingie? I really like this truck. I'm currently doing some mad scientist stiff to some old R/C trucks that I have. I robbed a 9.6v battery pack from one and three 3.2v batteries from two others. Then, I made another battery pack out of those 3.2s. So, I wired them in series(19.2v) and put both packs in a little 3.2v truck. It didn't work. I did feel one component on the circuit board was really hot, as it hurt like hell when I touched it by accident, lol. I'm going to buy a whole new bigger truck and add one of these packs to what it came with. I guess that I could wire it in parallel and the charge would last longer, but where's the fun in that? It's going to be 19.2V baby! It should jump straight up in the air, or the fire department will stop by, lol
@ Nope. I had charged the batteries and the next time I went to run it, only the lights would flash. And now when I try to run it again, it won’t even power on at all sadly
@NateTheGreat1684 Ah ok, sounds like it's not binding. Shame. Downside to cheap crawlers as its pot luck sometimes. It's honestly a very different experience going for a proper crawler vs a cheap one. 👍
Just a note to say the axles are plastic...I obviously need glasses...or a magnet! 🤣🤦

@@DoURC thanks🙏
@@yellownoobz19 No problem. 👍

hi, may i ask where that noise is coming from? is it normal on every rc cars? or just the wpl c24?
thank you
It's the motor, every RC is different and the WPL ones are quite noisy. Brushed Motors are generally louder than brushless. Hope that helps. 👍
thank you
@@DoURC
@@DoURCcan you put a motor in it that less noisy? Thinking about buying one. It’s just that the motor is noisy
@jesseshelden6420 Potentially yeah. This is the smaller single speed motor, you can get a bigger motor and 2 speed. 👍
@@DoURC so what we can hear is a brushed motor? I just got a bit different truck but have the same annoying noise.

I did feel one component on the circuit board was really hot, as it hurt like hell when I touched it by accident, lol.
I'm going to buy a whole new bigger truck and add one of these packs to what it came with. I guess that I could wire it in parallel and the charge would last longer, but where's the fun in that? It's going to be 19.2V baby! It should jump straight up in the air, or the fire department will stop by, lol

It won’t make it up that bank, it only has a stock 22re motor in it 🤷🏽♂️
Had to give it a try though. 👍
Plus the stock tyres aren't great. 😬

I think it depends on location, I'm in the UK, so that price includes tax and shipping. 👍

Good aestethic, but it's pretty mediocre mechanics.
I agree, but you're only paying $50 so can't expect much really! 🤣👍

Quit working after two days
Get it wet by any chance?
@ Nope. I had charged the batteries and the next time I went to run it, only the lights would flash. And now when I try to run it again, it won’t even power on at all sadly
@NateTheGreat1684 Ah ok, sounds like it's not binding. Shame. Downside to cheap crawlers as its pot luck sometimes. It's honestly a very different experience going for a proper crawler vs a cheap one. 👍
