8:49 You blew my mind, I have been looking for a reverse control for years because I prefer to take curves with my left hand and accelerate with my right hand
And after so many years of watching videos, you just gave me the solution to that.
thanks man..
🙂👍
Ha ha. Glad i could help. To be honest I am not sure why I do it. Think it maybe because of an old broken bone in my hand so it is easier to hold the way I do. Hope it works for you. Good luck. 😊👍🏼
8:50 yep, I found myself using it the same way too. I remember 2 years ago when I've just started this hobby I took the transmitter and made a little experiment with hands positions with the transmitters while driving. So we are using it like left handed people))) maybe because of computer racing games experience where the directions was in the left hand by default, I don't know))
Yeah it's possible. Wonder how many others do it that way? 🤔🤔🤔😉
Hi John.. Do you still think that the 124017 WL is a better choice than the 124008 WL ? I just got the WL 124017 with a transmitter equal to the 08, I haven't tried it..... Do you think this has improved the delay ??? which parts are compatible ???
love my 124017 v2 on 3s lipo esc tuner to ramp in the speed 1/10 duct tape mod tyres. got all these ideas from you @JohnRobinsonRC just wish could find some hub extension that are good to widen the track width. thing does wheels im sure at 100kmph. Thanks for the videos really enjoyable keep up the good work. also place you live there look amazing, Hi from New Zealand
I bought this one to make sure they wouldnt send me the v1 with the cogging issues, plus i liked the colour on it.
And they say the controller was better, better range, etc
Is there parts available in case it breaks?
Are the old/new Tx's universal/interchangeable like all the wltoys tx's? I.e. could you use a 007 tx on a 144001 and vice versa?
Hiya. I wondered the same thing. Tried the 12427, 184131, 127017 v2 and 144001 on this new one. None of them worked....
@@JohnRobinsonRC ahh ok, so it goes, as they say.
whats the difference 124007 vs 124008? which one is better?
I wish they would add a steering dual rate to the controller Great video
Yes would be welcomed. 😊
youknow you can tip phone holder up to make it more stabil
Yes but it doesn't help. Tried 5 different phones including an iPhone and it is so unstable. Very bad design.
So do you know if they are going to discontinue the 124017? 😕😟😞
No no. Not from what I have heard anyway.
Any cogging issues?
Hallo mine left front wheel always coming loose what can i do thanks
Blue lock tight
Nice buggy but I think they should have added a slipper clutch with this one
Yeah would have been great to introduce something... Anything....
Seems too light with plastic chassis. Seemed to have a difficult time staying planted and kept flipping. I think I prefer the 124017 with the aluminum chassis. Thank you John and Colin for the review.
It has the same chassis as 124017 so its metal too
Quick question guys, I over ran my 17 on 3s and it started smoking from the motor, I unplugged it straight away, let it cooled and try plugging the battery back in, but smoked a whole lot more 😂. I know the motors Gone diddly gone gone, but is it the battery now redundant or will it be okay in a different car? Hellllllp ppl
Hiya. Battery should be fine. Unless it shows signs of overheating or damage of course. Did it get mega hot while the motor was BBQ'ing?
@@JohnRobinsonRC As hot as the sun buddy !! ) but it kindly died right in front of me, so was able to get to it quick. I knew I should of stopped but I was getting mega speeds and it sounded to good to stop! Had the car couple of years, so for the price... I've had my fun out of it !! ) Thanks for the response buddy Top Man Thank You.
What’s the biggest 3s battery I can put in the car with no modifications to make car go the fastest and last the longest?
Hi. The bigger the battery, the slower the car will go due to the weight. So it's more about balancing. I use a 3000 mAh as it gives good run time and nice power with 3s. If I put in 4000 for example. The car will drive for longer, but be slower. So I would rather have 2 x 2000 mAh batteries and swap them over for the same run time but faster speed due to the weight being less. 😊👌
@@JohnRobinsonRC link for 3000 3s battery ?
@@kevinbursey7284 in the description below i have a link to the ampow batteries I use. The 3000 mAh deans connector is what I use. They usually sell in a pack of 2. 😊👌
I don’t see a link below sorry John ?
No worries. Here you go.

Hi John nice content as usual ,don't think much of the light screen flashing you've started adding to this video . Thought it was my phone at first .
Ah ok mate. To be honest I get good and bad comments about certain things all of the time. But you are now the second person to mention these specific transition so I will stop using them. Thanks for the feedback. Wishing you a fantastic day! 😊👍🏼
@@JohnRobinsonRC Thanks John I appreciate that .
When are you getting the 124008 ? Been waiting for your review lol couldn't wait bought it !!! Lol great little buggy but needs the diffs greasing and I put a dumbo giro receiver in it 👍
Hello mate. To be honest I wasn't. Didn't see the point. Then saw Tomleys review and the damage caused. However I have now been sent one so will have an open mind and try and break it. 😂 It does look good though. Typical wltoys, no grease.
You happy?
@@JohnRobinsonRC I love it it's a great little basher not as heavy as the previous cars and it feels lighter and a bit more nimble dispite it not being as quick as the older one on 3s it's great fun I m happy with it 👍 can't wait to see what you think 😁
@@stevearmett1565 nice one mate. Looking forward too it. Thanks for the info. Have a great weekend! 😊👍🏼
The remote controller is a copy design from Flysky Noble NB4. haha
He he. Yep. Their design department is someone looking on the Internet at other designs. 😂😂👌
AAA's are a lot more expensive over here, so that is a bit of a negative for me, the rechargeable single Nimh cells are double the price of the AA's.
Holy crap! Are you serious? I did not know that..... Yes I can see it being a negative..... Ouch. Another change that WLToys didn't need to make for zero gains but potential losses.... 😒😒😒🤔😔
@@JohnRobinsonRC I will actually choose the 124017 over the newer one just because of that long term higher expense on batteries, and just buy this body shell if I want to change it, sad but true ...
Which I would find it hard to argue with.... The controller could have been so much better.... They have left me confused..... I don't get this car.... Why release it? 🤔🤔 Maybe cause I have the 124017 v2 I feel like that.....
It's a solid car for sure. Is Colin flying a quadcopter for some of the shots?
Hiya. No we used a selfie stick to get that effect. Still working out the kinks. 😉👌
@@JohnRobinsonRC Looked good to me. I thought he'd taught himself to fly over night. Younger folk do pick up stuff quickly. 😉
Ha ha. Well actually he has been practicing with the novice 4 drone but I'm not yet ready to strap a camera onto it! 😂😂😂
Sorry John but the 124017 has a 60 amp esc not a 45 amp as you said at the start( or Colin said 45amp and you said it's the same )
Unless that's a v1 buggy and it's different to the v2,but I have the v2 and it's a 60amp 100000000% mate
You are correct mate. Which is confusing because I was speaking directly with WLToys themselves and they stated both cars have the same electronics. But what do I know! 😂😂 Thanks mate. 👌👏👏👏
@@JohnRobinsonRC Well actually I've watched other videos on the 124017 v1 and they did say it had a 45amp esc so I'm wondering if they made a mistake or it was upgraded to 60amp with the v2
I have asked WLToys for confirmation. I think the 124007 has a 60amp but someone has incorrectly stated 45amp... I am hoping so..
@@JohnRobinsonRC sorry mate,what kv does the 124007 have please? I know you said it had the same 2845 motor but I wasn't sure if it was the 4300kv or not.
As it was slightly slower than the 17 ( only by a few km though )
No the 124007 is 45 amp. Two places on the box also state 45 amp... ibb.co/dK9Bc9n
Everyone else and thr people selling them say its a 60a esc
Shame it’s the same, but at least they are still being made at reasonable prices 👌
I love wltoys because it's cheap and quality for that money is good. They have great ideas, but execution is not so good.. It's looks like they do not test what they produce... Anyway great video 👍
Yes I have to agree. If they took 10% more effort on quality control (and logic) they could be brilliant. But so many mistakes have started to annoy a lot of people...... 😒😒😒
@@JohnRobinsonRC 👍
Have a great weekend mate! Stay safe!
@@JohnRobinsonRC You 2
yeah John i think wltoys dropped the ball to put dual rate steering on that receiver, what a wasted marketing opportunity.was there not a slight delay on blue remote vs this one same signal wise?.colours remind me of splatoon nintendo game..lol..blue for me thank's..
Yes this car seems very hit and miss. Nothing wrong with it. But they could have made it perfect..... For very little effort!
I didn't notice any delay. I think I will get both this and the 124017 together and do a few tests to make sure.
Splatoon colouring! Ha ha! You are the first to say you prefer the blue! Very interesting!! 😉👌
Have an awesome weekend! Stay safe! 😊👍🏼
@@JohnRobinsonRC That would be great to see John, as im indeed thinking about getting a 124017 in the future..yes that's me John riding against the wave, i honestly just prefer the blue, however if cheap enough i will steer/own any of them hehehehe..
@@JohnRobinsonRC BTW intro was cool SAMEEEEEEEEEEEE !!! hehehe
I seriously don't see how I feied the black wire just by turning the car on before the transmitter
How can this run on 3s?
Does 58-60mph on good 3s lipo
@@roadstar499 this model does not run on 3s
Yes it does if you want it to, many videos of this car totally stock running on 3s...but 2s is fast enough..
@@roadstar499 you can run 3s if you want to on stock esc and motor but keep an eye on the temperature of both
I agree...always use common sense and check temps..in winter of coarse temps wont get as bad as running car in 100 degree summer.
I don't get it, it's the same buggy with a couple "gimmicky" attempts at "something"? They probably have a gigantic overstock of the 124017's that didn't sell and are trying to figure out a way to get rid of them. I own a couple Wltoys, being impressed by them goes away quickly when you have to start looking for parts, changing out cheap Phillips hardware for decent hex-head screws, poor quality electronics ect. ect. RLAARLO's new 1/12 buggy is light-years ahead, and at a much better price right now.
Very hard for me to argue with your logic. Wltoys are asking a lot of money compared to the still decent 144001 for not a lot more. And the gimmicky attempts aren't even executed well. That's why I said if you own a 124017, then you don't need this. The 124017 or 124007 is the choice depending on your car design. The rest is the same. Rlaarlo I think are watching everything wltoys are doing badly and improving it. Even down to spare parts and customer service. I hope Rlaarlo continue to improve to be honest as then wltoys will just keep sliding down hill I am afraid.
Thanks for your comment. Have a great weekend! 😊👍🏼
Personally I'm not a fan of the new color scheme, tomley showed a 4300kv in his
Yeah some like it. Some don't. The 124007 is 4000kv. The 124017 is 4300kv. 😊👌
@@JohnRobinsonRC ok no worries great video! Wasnt criticizing you or your video just stating my opinion. Calm down tony tiger, your video, Its Great!
Thanks for making another video for the new WLToys. I've decided to drop it and not purchase any if they can't listen to their customers.
LIKE LIKE LIKE EVERY VIDEO 😁
Thank you, thank you! 😁👌
This just screams to me this company had made far more of this buggy than they expected to sell, and so they sat down and came up with this scham of a idea to make changes that cost nothing but that seems new to the buyers. Theres just one problem with that besides all the other obvious ones, and that is that it really shows how dumb we think they are.. and if they don't think we can tell that everything but the color of the battery and the body shell are exactly the same, they must REALLY think we're complete numb skulls... kind of insulting don't you think?
Terribly designed phone holder.
Uhm yes. I did the greasing the diffs video earlier today and had the phone in the holder on the desk. Before I pressed record the phone was pushed out and dropped onto the desk (not the floor thank god.) so yes. Needs a real design or put a standard mounting point at the top of the controller. Then most phone holders or action cams can be mounted easily. But what do I know.....?
Looks like a toy don't think I will buy this one.
Ah ok. Even though its the same as all of their recent cars.... Or is it just the colouring?
@@JohnRobinsonRC yep, I think he is talking about colous 😁
Or Size maybe 🤔🤔😀
It is ok, tastes differ

Hate the shell, hate the controller. What a waste!
