Kev the EAT14 definitely not even close to the best dirt cheap Rc car, the cogging issue aside the EAT14 is not very strong either, so I did the unboxing video then gave the buggy to my little girl to do the test run part of that video, well unfortunately about 1O minutes into it’s first ever run, she stuffed it into one of the only curbs in the car park and it totally destroyed the buggy, smashed diff case, bummer, battery, receiver, main drive shaft, maybe a motor but luckily I caught it all on camera lol, it’s my latest video I uploaded, my little girl was gutted but these things a happen doesn’t it mate.. 😂
Same here..though I read in a rccar action thread somewhere 2 big rc companies are looking at purchasing wltoys for their budget line with some improvements planned. Who i dunno but if I could take a guess maybe traxxas is one. The other no clue.
Pro tip, never plug a cheap Chinese usb charger into your pc. They have been known to contain malware! Check they only have two pins (power only) on the connector first at least.
The power of data wire. In the plus side because they want the malware on your computer most are data wire. Saved my ass the other day,. I needed a data wire for beta flight.. my usb off a stick China charger worked :)
I bought this RC, and I can't wait to receive it tomorrow, and this video can show me what the RC actually looks like, and the speed. In short, this video is a masterpiece and the solidity .
You can get the cheapie programming cards for em and adjust the "punch" setting up to like 7 or 8 to "fix" that lag issue. Some of the cheap ESCs (hobbyfang, looking at you) seem to do that, even up to like 60 amps, even with a very mild gearing. 3s helps of course, but its better to get the settings happy cuz it'll work better both ways.
Why make parts for the wltoys but not the arrma granite blx v3?? Wahh!! I have had the wltoys 14401 which I've been trying to by parts besides the crappy alum which have terrible fit.
@@KevinTalbotTV with the vast amount of subscribers you have surely you could just type jibberish and still get more views in 10 minutes than I get in a month!! I hope to hit the 1 million mark myself before the end of December, just maybe not this year….. 🤣
I think it was one of these I found the shock towers were completely bent right going forward and left going back the links and pins were bent 180degrees the diffs were shot tyres blown chassis bent everything destroyed still ran 1wd
I belive the stuttering issue has to do with the esc's program parameters, you could probably get a programming card and increase the punch setting That and it's sensorless
Hey Kev I want to buy the Traxxas ruster but im scared of lipo's so I want to drive it on nimh, and I don't know what ESC I have to use. I don't even know If I have to use an othor ESC but I heard that I have to use the righte ESC so the batterie does not explode. Please answer and don't bei angrie. this message is also for kev's community: )
It's obvious that all three were made in the same factory somewhere in China. Still you can't get a better Buggy for the money. I had a WL Toys and gave it away to a kid that only drove it once and now it sits in his basement somewhere. Seeing this I wish I still had it. Spares are dirtcheap and they're very robust.
I had the same cogging issues with these new wltoys brushless buggy's when I reviewed em, the 124016 is even worse, has hardly any range at all before it cuts out. The 124017 got to 94kph on 3s easy out the box using dumbo RC tx though👍
@@brettblackshaw6582last week I made a video on adjusting the settings on the stock esc with a programming card to help reduce the cogging, it seemed to work better on the 124017 than the heavier 124016 desert buggy. These cars are geared too high for the small 2845 motor, they should've brought them out with a 3650 size instead IMO.
I just received my 124017. Love it but trying to figure out the best way to eliminate cogging. Do I get a bigger motor? Do I get a better esc? Do I change the gearing? Or do I just reprogram the esc, though it won’t eliminate cogging but reduce it.
I like the wltoys rc cars..its just the biggest issue I have with them and what seems to be everyone's biggest issue is they don't grease their diffs enough.
Kevin, plzzzz make a video of u making an rc car all from scratch with all the details and functions and stuff for any of us who want to make one for our selfs
Why is it cheaper to build from scratch then to buy kit and the parts are upgrades from stock ? Well I'm happy to order exactly what I want custom picked . This is something nice
Hey kev, what would i need to do to fix the cogging issue? I have a similar setup since i turned my 144001 into brushless with an ocday 60a esc and 4370k motor and im having the same cogging issue and i do want to run it on grass mostly. It's great when it gets going but if im in thicker grass areas in the park, i have to nudge it or else it won't go :/ (even on 3s) Please make a video on how you would fix this for as cheap as possible. Maybe a lower kv motor? 120a esc? Last thing I'd want is to spend the car worth on a sensored system. Thanks for the help!
Hello Kevin wow those little buggys are pretty fast for the money very cool buggys they are good to keep in your car for a quick little run if your waiting for something some where, any way we miss your videos your not posting any new videos, one more thing, Arrama came out with a new car The VENDENTTA on road and off road, see if you can get one thanks your friend william from NJ Forgettaboutit 👍
I had similar issues with my car witch used an esc that looked tough the same I fixed it by playing with the level setting on the programming card wich determines the energy the motor gets when starting to drive till it worked
Feel like you should have said, "let's go to the skate park & kill it!" Seems like the throttle endpoints are off...not sure if that can be adjusted on those.
hi kev, where did you get the "Gyproc fibatape xtreme extra sticky plasterboard drywall joint tape 90m x 48mm" from, and also where did you get the shoe goo from?(in one of your traxxas maxx video). can you give me the links of them pls?

Hey Kev when you do alignment on your cars especially on the fast cars you go to think of the drag on the wheels pulling back that mite be why the cars pull left and right just asking brother

Kev… where you at mousehold Heath??
Can you tried the 1/6 axial scx6 jeep
And do more video with the UDR
How does something like this compare to an old Optima mid? Do you think these cheap brushless RC cars would win in a race?
Oh yeah run that 3s! The cogging sure does let this car down but other than that.. they're fun and sure are durable! Great video as always Kev! 🍻
Loving the vids Kev, is there any way to solve that clogging issue??, yeah the RcKiwis!!👌 go the mighty All Blacks!!💯
I think it may be the esc as I had the same in another car and ilsow had delay caging and overheated badly to the point that it set on fire onse
also the hearing is to high
Guys watch my video, my little girl destroyed the EAT14 on its first run in under 10 minutes and I mean destroyed 😂
I'm sure it's that brushless motor in these. Maybe try replacing it with a different brand brushless motor?? Would this stop clogging???
I really like the direction this XK (WLToys) company is going. Cant wait for bigger 1/8 releases (and maybe 1/5 scale?)!
Same here..though I read in a rccar action thread somewhere 2 big rc companies are looking at purchasing wltoys for their budget line with some improvements planned. Who i dunno but if I could take a guess maybe traxxas is one. The other no clue.
Me too!
@@windalejrno88 I think horizon hobby ( aka Arrma, blade and more ) xk also make helis, Traxxas don't make helis, blade yes
For me xk rc is all consider toy not hobbies car .
It mean like all xk rc is for kids

Those are AWESOME. I have the brushed version and no issues from the start. Ok, it's slower but also fun! I make Carbon parts for these too. 😘

up to 50 MPH?!
And they can go even FASTER?!

they cog because they are way overgeared, with a smaller pinion there wouldnt be a delay

Outstanding video indeed 🔥
1:55 staircase of doom
That’s what happened
Wonder if these would be any good with another receiver/transmitter and get rid of that annoying jittering start, if so they'd be a solid car.
Nice seeing you the other day kev when I was leaving work, next time your there can I come watch you wreck them haha
Thats a tough little unit. Should review the speed rc truck one of these days.
If they only offered a Roller as an option. Add your own electronics and they're AMAZING little beasts.
Now u know ther gana do that since someone said it..👍🏁
I JUST BOUGHT ONE! I'm so glad Kevin reviews all of these. Im still excited to know what ill be getting!
Time to go get both new arrma rc's on the page!! Infraction and vendetta 1/8
It's obvious that all three were made in the same factory somewhere in China. Still you can't get a better Buggy for the money. I had a WL Toys and gave it away to a kid that only drove it once and now it sits in his basement somewhere. Seeing this I wish I still had it. Spares are dirtcheap and they're very robust.
there has to be a way to select a different punch setting in the ESC.. or maybe lower the pinion gear. ive seen others do that when pinion is too big
Kev will we see the slash 4x4 again???
The Explorer @ 8:55 looks like a miniature DBXL-E 2.0, complete with the shell pivot.

You should get the Octane XL it’s really fun when you put a bigger battery in and you can get a faster motor in it
More cells means more power, Yes! Always a blast watching your videos!

gear down and esc change will help loads
@@KevinTalbotTV any chance you know what pinion gear fits? I believe it's a 3.125mm shaft or something odd like that
The spur gear of the wltoys a959 17t. Modify the motor mount.

You could try a smaller gearing, could solve it.

Chuck a quic run sensored motor & esc in it if you don't mind spending 80 quid on one
