I am doing some speed testing with this new WL TOYS 144001, this thing only recently hit the market and it seems everyone is getting them too, so lets find out if this new budget king of the 1/12-1/14 scales is really the master of it all. I try out the stock 2S lipo and a relatively poor condition 3S lipo to record some top speed runs. We will see how easy it is to use a 3S lipo with the adjustable battery tray function this has, also I point of one flaw in the battery tray design. Lets see how this goes!!! - Auta a dopravnĂ prostĆedky
Fantastic speeds and fantastic test run, I can't wait to get mine đ really enjoyed every minute of this fun video đđđ
Awesome video brother!!! That little thing is super quick on 3S. I love the two speed and the fact that it has reverse thatâs just awesome.
Great video. Entertaining as always. That Wltoys buggy is great bang for your buck. Goes well & really nice quality with all the aluminium parts. The steering servo is very strong /quick aswell. đđż
Ordered mine from BG late December, just got it and first run, I am hearing grinding noises from the rear diff when barely adding throttle but at full speed the noise goes away, so hopefully just needs grease and don't really want to deal with return process. Just looking to get into the hobby and seeing your review influenced me to get this model. Love your channel, it's frickin hilarious and I am a fellow SIer, hope to see you in South Beach sometime.
Love your vids bro, keep up the hard work. Good thing you didn't have the throttle opened up when that receiver pack died. Shout out to Jeng.
hey man!! I just got a new RX pack for the revo, it seems it's solved the issues I had. Weird because I voltage tested the old pack and it was above 6.5 Volts, but wishing 2-3 minute it would die out. Must be some type of Phantom Voltage Capacity, lol. JANG is the man!!! Luckily the traxxas nitros all have very good throttle return spring setups.
Thanks, My Friend! Always fun watching your videos. đđđđđđ
Very impressive !!!! Your videos are always fun and informative
I oerdered 2 144001's 1 red 1 green w/2 batteries. The red one finally shipped on 11/3 its half way to me in Massachusetts and the green 144001 w/2 batteries still wont ship for another 2 weeks banggood is telling me blah. I ordered everything on 10/25 these guys are flying off the shelves lol. Good to see yours zooming around i cant wait to try it. Awesome video as always my fellow brap brother always got to have a little nitro/gas action in the videos!!đđđ
That's an awesome little RC
Another great video comrade, I wish I had the extra money for one of those right now. I ha e an original Tamiya Thunder Dragon that I restored and a lot of those parts from the two cars put together, I could make one sick one. Keep the great content coming.
Awesome video bro! đđ€Łalways entertaining man! I still think you should start putting RC channel stickers on that Prius!? The âHibrighiniâ! Kinda has a nice ring to it? LOL!!!! Thanks for sharing bro
Nice! I just cannot believe the quality of that thing @ the price point! Btw, I donât know what the hell is going on with notifications but itâs just getting worse! Not to worry, I always check my favorite CZcamsrs to see if theyâve posted new videos đ
I know, for the money this is the best there is so far. With the current discount code in the video description it's under 70 bucks too. I know what you mean, I just literally go to my top ten you tubers page every 3-4 days and watch their vids, too many notifications. I'm getting lost in the MATRIX here.
I miss URC videos. I started watching Jang videos in 2015 and was persuaded to return to the RC hobby. Good video by the way.
hey man! URC was youtube gold back then, am I right? Mainly the reason I got into making videos too around that same timeframe.
I got the same lipo checker! I got it recently and love it! I'm always checking my lipos lol.
cool video bro love it,love just how u make having fun funny lol lol...Great job bro god bless
hey man, thanks so much for watching!! I got an EPIC test with wheels on this comming soon.
Love this car i want to have it but now is pandemic so i need to hold my hobby for a whileâŠu re awesome bro good review
Never lose the opportunity to insult a jeep when you got oneđ€Ł
well bro, im happy to have a person with a god sense of humor here! thanks! I mean if they made Jeeps better I would not have to say that, lol!! Jeep prob less reliable than this small electric RC.
I ran into this channel trying to fing good cheap rc crawler "for my nephew" and somehow ended up here. Dude, you look and sound like you should be showcasing illegal goods out of an old van, not rc stuff out of a prius. Great channel.
hey bro!! ahahah!! This is one of my favorite comments, because you got the whole inside joke of my channel. Since I mostly do Nitro and Gas video I call it the "nitrogang", it's a "bad guy keeping it real" type of character, meanwhile the Irony is that I drive a prius, ahahah. Check out my newer vids, I'm sure you'll appreciate the content. Plus I'm an old school wresting fan so I tend to have many wrestling intros and wear an NWO shirt sometimes.
Awesome vid MATE!! Just found your channel, nice tribute to jang, man these wl toys car is everywhere, looks fun!!!
hey man!! welcome to my channel, thanks so much for the comment. I generally do mostly gas and Nitro RC, but one cannot deny that this WLToys is a solid performer for the money too. what types of RC do you run? And ye, JANG was and still is the man, no matter what.
@@hybrid32494 Haha!!! he sure is!!! Into 1/10 offroad racing at the moment, but i have a heap of bashers both onroad and offroad, all electric though for me!!! đđ
RC4EVER LOL!! don't matter if it's electric or not, I respect all RC. I'm currently working on repairing an original HPI Micro RS4 and a 1997 HPI MT electric.
Nice video man ! You need a wheely bar on that revo đ cheers!
Thanks for sharing sirđ
URC reference hit me in the feels
You speak and I hear it like rap song!
You are awesome!
These videos are so terrible and so good at the same time đ€Ł I watch every one of them
hahahah, you the man!!! I create a love/hate sort of video, lol. Love to hate the mini electrics, but hate to love the traxxas nitros, ahhaha. The next ones up will feature the REVO 3.3 as seen in this video.

lol
FR, canât tell what accent that is except annoying
cool presentation, cheers!
hey bro! thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video.
Very fast lil rig for sure
Please help me.I also installed a 3s and the steering doesn't respond anymore. have i now destroyed the esc with more electricity? : ((
Im definitely getting one awsome video thanks I'll need to get an extended strap for the battery tray those dart guns are pretty fun too how is your primal Mt doing lol to the bay watch music right I loved it. When will you be installing the two meddle carb for the primal it will be so much better power.
I have been getting really sidetracked lately, I need to work on the gas scooter and the primal, you are right!! It's just one of those things, when I get an idea I gotta make the video, and forget about the rest. I need an assistant, preferably a Girl who is into RC's. lol. I got that dart gun for 6 bucks at Walmart, and it has pretty good accuracy even at 30-40 feet away.
Woww... Una bomba!!!
hey man! thanks for watching! This is a great RC for the money. What really amazes me is the stability at top speeds, it's pretty great. Even my 1/8 brushless buggy handles worse than this at top speeds.
i have it one,, and upgrade to brushles,,, the speed is amazingg!!..
can you link to what electronics and motor you used?
Great video brother đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ
Cool bro đ
yup, the only little thing I've seen about 144001 to kinda not like is shock tower tops getting bent up, likely simple enough to whip some up from compressed black epoxyglass sheet, then they'd either bounce or snap. another (easier!) possible is large OD steel washers both sided of those plates.
What is the maximum battery dimension (w h l) that fit in the car? (after you move the battery holder? Thank you
I have a little different stock ESC for this RC. It said 60A carbon brush regulator. Do you think it can handle 3S battery without overheat ?
T-MAXX Tony here, FYI only the 2-speed shift matters!!
hybrid32494 1:36 đ Two speed lives matter
@@Mike-um1cr T-Maxx Tony says he agrees! Only the 2-speed shift point Lives Matter!!! the single speeds get the Dart Gun SHOT!!
new to car hobby and want to try the 3s lipo battery for this car of course with caution , how do I know I got the right battery that would fit this car? amazon links would be very helpful!!!!
The car seems to be fun đđŸ
Nice... Going to buy this rc...
hey buddy!! Thanks for watching!! This really is a good all around RC for the money, you really can't beat the price and speed. Also the shocks are good, I still have it to this day btw.
Getting real itchy now to buy one. What I like most are the aluminum parts for this price.
Good vid boss just got the wl toys 144001 myself n love it what's the best 3 s lipo to run in it I want a longer running battery could you recommend for both 2s n 3s please n ty n keep them awesome vids coming me n my brother love your channel we got into the hobby cus we are both disabled n don't work so we need something to constructively fill our day n get us off the couch n be somewhat active n we have a blast n when were not blasting our RC,s we watch you n our other favorite channels ty for all the good content n fun gotta peace out hope 2020 is your best year ever
can i install a gyro on the stock system??? it should handle dirt coarse much better for us guys not so great at driving.... thax
Banggood finally shipped one to me for a review now that they r back in stock, I got a 24% off coupon code too
whats up my dude!!! You're gonna like it, I know you'll get epic footage and jumps with this thing. Funner than my basic speed runs I gotta admit. lol.
Hey stevo is that coupon code single use? đ
@@hybrid32494 yeah I'm not a electric fan, but this is cool.
@@theirishaxe9405 it's the code in my video description with the link. This is the same code everyone is using now bro!!! Thats the facts cause STONE COLD SAID SO.
Dude, your 1/1 scale car needs an increase of air pressure in the tires !
LOL< hey dude!! YUP! you got that right, it looks like the prius needed some air. Problem is I have super cheap tires that always look like they are low on air, when it reality it's usually about 32 PSI anyway, ahaha. The benefit is the ride is comfier, but probably one tire is loosing air due to a hole, so that is also possible.
It takes 3s,I have a 3s 1500 and it will fit easy,just waiting for the car to arrive , always love the nitro đđ»
hey man!! Yes, most of the 1500 mah packs will fit. But the issue is the battery strap. IDK how to figure that out without a longer velcro strap. There is also very little clearance for height, the battery I used in this video is the biggest you could fit without mods.
The snes top gear music!
good man!! you got it!! Nothing beats some 16 bit music, right!!!
Love the tribute to Jang!
thanks man!! JANG is the man, don't care what anyone says, he had alot of haters, they must have all been LOSI KIT builders of the time, ahahah. JK.
hybrid32494 Jangâs reviews are amazing. I watch them over and over and never get bored!
Irony Prius vs nitro fuel... đđđđ...love the vid dude đđđ
hahaha, good point!!! I drive the prius so I can buy more RC's LOL. Not joking either. Based on my math my Prius has paid itself off about 3 years ago in fuel savings alone, the car is basically paying me to drive it right now (compared to a basic civic or corolla).

Sound buddy I think I need one... đđđđđ
Great Show đđ
hey man! thanks so much for watching!!
hybrid32494 I was well intentioned, I loved it bro. Definitely subbed ya brother
WL Hauls ASs!
That's a good video.
14401 If you use a 3S battery in the basic state, is there any overload in the motor, transmission, etc.?
Love that little wltoys buggy love to see tug of war between gas vs nitro vs brushless electric getting a ruslur vxl TSM it looks fantastically fast now on holiday so it will be gym and RC fun . Take it easy dudeđŹđ§đȘđșđœ
Hey bro!! You're gonna love the Rustler VXL I have one too (never showed it in a video though). I was just about to do a tug of war between the REVO in this video and a Slash VXL and ofcourse some fake parks department cops came and threw me out. Ofcourse I thanked them politely meanwhile I hated their guts!! I was in the same empty parking lot as always!! the 1% cops are controlling the 99% bro!!! I'm gonna Occupy a park now and live in it, I got no choice.
@@hybrid32494 sounds like these cops need to get a life

we gotta make a stand for the 99% bro!!! hahahah. #OCCUPYandRC.
Thank you i order Now my đ can you send here a bangood link for the 3s lipo please
hey buddy Thanks for watching. I'm sorry I cannot give you any bangood link for this 3S lipo. I already owned the lipo and it's from a Loss mini eight. Your best bet is to measure the battery tray size of the actual car and then order based on the size specs. Always best to measure when getting a non-standard size lipo.
Thatâs knarly!

@@earlyculyer4103 eBay hobbyrecreationproducts
Where can I purchase that exact 3s lipo battery ??
Looks faster than my rustler đ€Ł
hey bro! Depends on which rustler model you're talking about. But this is still faster than a rustler VXL on a 2S or 7 cell NIMH. so you're right. The rustler is only fast when it's on 3S.
But most of those traxxas and others only go like 30 out the box until u tweak it..
hi friend nice video, i have a question , can i put in that car this battery 11,1 V 1500 Mah 40C?.... thanks
This thing looks pretty cool, Wltoys seem to have stepped up a bit.
hey bro!! Yes, this model really has everything you want in a small buggy for under 100 bucks. For me the main parts I care about are the aluminum chassis and oil filled aluminum shocks, this was like one of the first money wasting upgrades on the rest of the WL Toys models.
Subscribed not only cause review but that voting comment was funny as f**k.
hey man!! Thanks so much!! I will be making some Occupy Wall Street Comments in my next few videos I think. What can I say, the RC life does not lead much space for free though, you know!! gotta incorporate the ideas somehow.
Hey can a 3000 mah battery go on wltoys 144001
This guy is fuckin hilarious dood! đ
What 3s battery is that? Thanks for the video.
I think Randy and the Boys where in that Prius
lol, hey dude!!
I voted but the God hatin gun grabbin baby killers won again! Funny vid bro! đ. I really like that little meter brother thats really nice! For dirt cheap RCs thats not bad! Can you get parts for those!? I guess I could look that up đ€Ł
fkn sik run man !
Mine with 3s did 0KM/h and a trickle of smoke.. Can you please shot a picture to your car's stock ESC? I think it may be different in newer 144001... can't find another explaination. :)
Nice video! Very fast at 3S but dangerous for the ESC. You can put brushed motor with more RPM
hey buddy! thank you for watching.
Sup but! Will you send me a link for your battery checker please. Thanks. Keep up the great work man!
hey man, here you go. This is the same exact one I am using. Thanks for watching my dude, I've got an epic test video coming soon on this right here. www.banggood.com/custlink/KmDKgq8l2h
@@hybrid32494 Thanks man. Oh, by the way, the last message meant to say sup bud! Not but. Lol
LOL, yes, I figured. now lets get the lipo cell info!! lol.
you could use the Zip ties to extend the battery strap holder
hey bro! I like your username (divided by zero). UNDEFINED< lol..
What battery is the 3s one
I'm not sure what type of 550 motor that buggy includes but most are rated at 8.4 volts. A 3S pack will prematurely kill that motor even if it is rated at 12 volts. Also does the ESC have a 3S li-po cut off? I think it is designed for 2S which means the voltage will cut off around 6 to 6.4 volts, which means a 3S pack will never reach a voltage that low so the cut off will not function.
George i just put a 3s pack but my esc began to smoke. my wheels turn but not the throttle. do you think its a motor or esc issue?
i put a 13v 3s in and went well nothing bad happend
While you are correct about the ESC. The motor will take a fair while to die using 3s. And even if the motor does burn out it doesn't matter as a new one is pocket change money..less than 10 dollars.
If the ESC burns out it's time to go brushless
Is this rc compatible with 3s on long use..!?
8:48 Top gear music!!!!!!!
How to determine if the batt is okay with that motor that will not cause problem if you're planing to upgrade the batt
hey dude. Generally any 2S lipo will work with this power system, even a 3S lipo seems to run fine. Your biggest issue will be making sure the larger capacity battery fits the battery tray itself. Also every ESC I've seen recently has built in Over Voltage protection, so it just should not Arm itself if you connect an uncompatible battery. What are you looking for? More runtime, or a 3S setup?
@@hybrid32494 thank you. I'm looking to increase the speed and to increase runtime.
I hooked up a 3s lipo to mine , and smoke came out of the reciever. LOL. Needless to say it's toast. Doesnt matter, I was planning on going brushless anyway. I have a couple videos on this car, and plan on doing more. Check them out!!
hey dude, gave your channel a sub and a like, I saw you had some cool bashing footage of the wltoys 144001. I guess you can safely upgrade to a brushless system now. You gotta get a whole new radio system too unfortunately.
Same here first day. So i ordered another. Ill keep ine stock and ill go brushless in the other..
I run 2200 20c 3 cell and so far so good, does get hot so I run without body and donât stay full throttle , so far so good âŠ
I can use a 2600mah battery in this model. without modifying anything Wltoys 144001 1/14 2.4g ???
Haha you're funny. I thought this was a 2S car only by the way đ
hey buddy!! Thanks for watching!! Now we know that you can run 3S, but keep in mind I generally don't run that long with a 3S pack on something like this or any other non-high end ESC. Id say based on my driving this can handle the average 3S with ease.
@@hybrid32494 Good to know indeed. Mine is still on the way... I have to be patient đđ
Do you think putting a 2s 3000 mah would be too much for the stock ESC to handle?
the more important question is how will you make it fit, lol. As long as it fits the capacity won't affect the ESC. Running a 3S lipo will do more damage than running a larger capacity 2S lipo. BTW, as long as you just monitor the temps on the esc and motor then running a larger pack is fine.
Where'd you get that speed meter? I want a good one I use my note 9.... Ugh took a tumble at 67mph on my baja 5b... Luckily held up
whats up NORM. This is the Dynamite GP Speed meter I originally got from amazon for about 90 bucks. They always cost around $100, on eBay as well. Don't buy the cheaper Flysky GSP meter, this is the way to go. IT has extremely high refresh rate for accurate GPS at any portion of a second's time. Also it's sold on horizon hobby now, and there is updatable software for it through their website where you can switch from MPH to KPH. www.horizonhobby.com/gps-speed-meter-20-dyn4403
@@hybrid32494 thanks!
What is the run time on the car with the 3s
hey buddy! It really depends how you drive, I would say a conservative estimate would be about 10 minutes. You need to keep in mind these have huge 550 can motors, and they run small capacity lipos. Usually people use several lipos for their runs to get a good run time for the day, you know.
Just wanted to share that there are other videos of this car being destroyed while using a 3S battery on CZcams. You might get a few runs and you might not. I watched one video that fried the ESC with the first punch out. So be warned, this car is NOT meant for 3s. Do yourself a favor and just get a larger 2S battery and then have fun blasting around at 30mph for 20+min! Have fun guys!
hey dude, thanks for watching. I don't deny that some people had issues with a 3S, they probably were really killing it and pushing the limits with this. I only do some speed runs on 3S and use. pretty terrible 3S lipo. Even traxxas/castle ESC's have had total failure when powered on, this was common with E-revos and some other models. I'd chalk the 3S failures up to just manufacturing defects, mine ran just fine, and the ESC was not that hot.
The 144001 looks like too much fun with the 3s, that damage montage really made me cringeđ
hey man!! I'll be at midland today with some RCs at 12-2. Come by if you're free.
@@hybrid32494 sure
i have 2 of them same car one goes 35mph other goes 40 on a 2s lipo how is that possible no one i seen gets that out of these cars unless they upgrade some stuff
You know that there is a and Prius out?
Now I want one :(
I was thinking about getting one other companies are selling them to saying its the same banggood takes 3 to 4 weeks or more for me so i dont buy from them very much wonder if the other companies are selling wltoy clones dont want to get a crapy version
whats up!!! So far this model is usually a bit long to ship because they are sold out, everyone is getting them. For me, Bangood is great with shipping, not any worse than any basic sellers on eBay, honestly. Plus there is no sales tax so I'm happy. You should order one right now I just added a huge coupon code discount to the video description. This is the first WLTOYS I feel sale putting a faster motor is btw, It was solid even at 40 MPH. I;ve got a cheap GOOLRC 13T 540 modified motor, I think that will be fun to test out.
Do u have to change the receiver? On 3 s? Or does it come ready to run on 3 s??
Hey man thanks for watching you can run a 3S on the stock with no modifications the stock ESC can handle a 3S just donât run a very high discharge pack
@@hybrid32494 thanks a also np I liked and subbed
Does it use a Dean's plug?
Hey man. The answer is yes, this is one of the reasons i got this buggy to begin with. I avoid non standard connectors as much as i can you kno.
is that a 550 motor in this car ? .. if so whats a better faster 550 brushed to swap ?
hey man! Yes, this car comes with a 550 can motor, you're right. I'll be honest with you, upgrading to any mild modified brushed motor will make this faster, it's got pretty high gearing and it's not adjustable. BTW, most people wind up putting in a cheap 540 brushless system into these, but you'll need a new radio system too. Best to either go brushless or keep it stock.
@@hybrid32494 whay cant you swap the motor and keep the esc? and remote comes with ? ..thnx
Hang used the same montage look and music.
I think thfirst nitro reverse was from Kyosho around 20 years back
hey man! You are probably right, Kyosho was heavy into the Nitro Rcs years ago, and are still one of the few brand names left making them to this day. I personally never owned a vintage Kyosho, but would love to one day. The T-maxx released in 1999 really made the monster truck segment something most rc guys could get into.
yes E-Maxx and T-Maxx were popular. It was the Kyosho Nitro Tracker with Beetle body shell which hat reverse at nitro :-)
Can I get the link for 3s battery
hey man!! That 3S battery is from my Team Losi mini eight. It came with the car, and is designed specifically for that model. It just seems to fit well in this WLTOYS also.
I've got a quick question - can I plug in 3s to this model out of the box?
hey man!! YES!! I did that in this video. Keep in mind I don't do more than a few speed runs with a 3S, but mine was fine. I would say just don't run longer than a few minutes to be safe until you feel comfortable with the ESC Temps.
@@hybrid32494 I don't đ thanks for fast response brother
You have one of the only working opti drives lol
ahhaha, I know exactly what you mean!! I actually was surprised when this one was working. I remember years ago when I had the early 2.5R revo I removed the optidrive and it was fine. Actually I think this sensor is responsible for alot of glitching.
Iâve been wanting go see someone use a higher capacity 2S on these to see if it unlocks some more speed. You happen to have any?
This thing would be lights out on 3S but I think itâll smoke the ESC over time.
Yup
it just burned my esc on 3s. I ordered a brushless system and ordered a stock esc. im pretty disappointed my 2nd day with it and this happen. now I gotta wait about 3 weeks for the things to arrive from China
Hey bro. You beat me on 2S by 2mph... But I won on 3S.. you still got 40 tho. Not to shabbyđâ
yep dude, It must have been my terrible old 3S lipo, that is the only variable. BTW what do you think of the battery strap issue, I gotta get a longer one to run the 3S safety. I don't invest in lipo batterie as you can tell, LOL.
@@hybrid32494 I had extra long ones already. I just switched it
gotcha!!! Issue is the larger 1/10 scale velcro straps are too wide, how did you route them through the battery holder position along the chassis?
@@hybrid32494 mine was same width, just really long. The best thing to do. Go to Walmart or somewhere or a craft store like Michaels and just buy a strip of velcro in whatever width you want
Waiting for you to try a Traxxas Titan 550 12T brushes motor. Will it fit??? Is it faster than stock??? Is it worth if someone doesnât know how to convert to brushless???
bro, this is a terrific IDEA. I just got a used rc lot with those motors, so I can actually make it happen right now. You the man!! When I'm done with my current nitro restoration, this will be the next project.
hybrid32494 canât wait.... let us know whatâs the result. I just got this for my Son and the first thing I thought was this thing needs a Titan in it.
so far I have the original 550 Titan motor from an E-maxx, a 12T Chinese 540 motor and a full 5200KV brushless system. It's a toss up between the Chinese brushed motor and the titan.
hybrid32494 ok so then make a video on it and give me a shout out.
