Hey Tomley nice run dude the cars looking sweet! But the weather is absolutely hammering you/us,I'd put her away for better days. Thanks for that awsome! shoutout hugely appreciated mate erm I dont think i need to tell you what to do. I agree with you and (Driftomainics) get the front down with droop screws she'll fly!

Don't apologise for making a long video, loving every minute of it!

Nice one for the shout out to Me Him. Great to see RC channels supporting each other. He has got some awesome tips on his channel and is a super nice dude too.

Great stuff!! Thanks for your updates on the 144001/124019, fun to see the options, and the results!

Awesome! Really looking forward to seeing the progression of this project.

Man, it sounds wicked. Love that surge sound.

Can’t wait to see more on this 👍🏁

Another great and interesting video. Thanks again for sharing and take care 👍👍

Great video

Mind blowing for a budget chassis and system can withstand 100MPH!

Happy to see that you didn't "forget" the 144001 ❤

Great video Bro! Thanks for share it!! Yeeaah!!

Nice run mate! I love that everyone is pushing for 100mph and beyond!

Great video man! Thanks for the details!

Just amazing run 🔥💥🧡

Really interesting vid! I really enjoy these ones. Looking forward to the next installment. 👍

Great speed run.👍👍👍👍

Thanks for doing the testing on various motors and esc.

Just thinking about the reaction you would have got carrying a radio transmitter in the same location about 30 odd years ago :-)

Ready to join F1 👍👍👍

Very very THX your idée..the battery velcro..👌🤝

Very cool build!!! What I like is get something cheap and put expensive stuff into it. Nice!!!!

I like the long detailed videos that is how u learn things

not a bad effort bud , looking forward to seeing the next installment 😃👍

Great episode dude, nice bit of info too

I love when you do long videos the longer they are the more I like them

super run brother top . I subscribed to not miss anything

nice one mate that can shift very quick🤟🇬🇧👊😎😊👍

Rad I like your style. Thanks for the video

Wow! That's pretty fast, dude!!! 😮 Looking forward to see what you do next!!! 😂 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Cool video and information,a little tweaking and bam,awesome RC

wl toys is always the best cheap basher rc cars and they are great cars to do projects on, so easy to upgrade and always good quality for the price

Wow bro, I wasn’t expecting you to even get 72 out of it to be honest. It looks really good as well Phil. You’re gonna hit the 100 next time without a doubt.👍

I like the paint.. looking forward to seeing 100mph

OMG that's the best reboxing ever

trial and error it's part of the fun!

I'm not gonna lie, I love that body. great video

The wing has broken during coold🥶 weather conditions, only to replace it aluminum, plastic breaks down in cold🥶 environment, nice testing runs, it looks good almost.😁🏗️👍🤔🧙

nice bit of boxing there mate.

No way that's my combo I was waiting for 2-3 weeks now 😁🙈👍🏽 looking forward to the next Video... By the way I put all my receivers in my Boats into an Ballon and close them with an zip tie no problem with heat and works so perfect against wet / water. Nice regards ✌️🏽 😊

You may need to wait until the weather is warmer Phil,these Lipo's don't like the cold.

Run them like u like too . , you got me really interested now. . I'm going to pick up this 111wd47. .lo For I been checking it out .. I like the purple. . kit version WPL on the way . First. Cheers ☕🍩

I am curious about the rocket motors. I just put that 120a hobbywing in a b6.2. Ready to see the next run.

Love watching your content, dude - yeah, learning what works and what doesn't work makes this hobby all the more interesting - great job and fingers crossed for the 100 - you will do it mate! :O)

Hey man I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I'm loving it.

Sweet bro get the helicopter by the same name and manufacture sweet 👍🇬🇧

Looks like you need a coffee after than one ! £2 in the pot for ya. Great upload - keep up the good work!

Is very fast for cheap car good job

Don't be too disappointed mate 72mph is QUICK! At least it didn't catch fire or crash or anything!

Wicked fast

I think a great combo would be a castle sidewinder 4 paired with the 6900kv motor you'll definitely go fast on 3s with that. Castle creations are a great choice for speed running

i like it t

“Still a bit slow” Faster than every speed limit in the U.K. 😂 nice work! Earned my sub ;)

Wooooow

Good stuff, keep at it the 100mph is closer than you think

Go get some clear acrylic nail polish. It is excellent for waterproofing PCB's. I coat all PCB's with it. Rx, servo, light and sound, etc.. I love the 'budget' builds.

That burnt ESC looks the same as the one I picked up off bangood & it handles 3S quite well

Have you set the Punch on the esc and the other parameters.. *Also a high C lipo.. * some weight on the front end *lower the CG *higher pinion gear We often think by putting more expensive components in a stock RC it will automatically make it better or faster!? A huge amount of R&D goes into building these RC's and and often very good to begin with thats why it's hard to improve on a stock platform? 🤔 Good Video Tomski 🇬🇧

have you watched Raz shifirin,s videos? He produces a little gadget called perfect pass, it is a programmable widget that feeds the power in gradually according to how you set it, basically launch control for an RC car-helps with controlling the squirrelly stuff! Enables you to just pull full throttle from the start, without losing control.

I can't wait till they put their 10th scale all wd model out.

Good stuff man, loads better than watching numpties break stuff.....including lockdown rules.

Fun to watch even though you didn't get it this time.

The lowest recommended T or KV rating for this motor to handle 3S is 10.5T or 4500kv. In cold weather, most batteries discharge goes down very quickly, so get some batteries with higher C rating. Also, maybe get a Flysky Noble NB4 rx/tx. They are very good and a massive range.

Keep up the good work ya about soldering pinion gears Robert Cowan has a good way of doing it Watch his video soldering pinion drive gears I was trying to do the same thing wicking the shaft but u do the opposite get small amount solder inside the pinion & it works good I have used it on bigger moters with good results & I want to see that car doing 100 next vid lol

I had the same Contact foam wheels, but the rear ones were too wide... Now I want to buy them again

Nice looking build mate, battery tray modification is the way to go 👌 but yeah you're right as you mentioned you really need to get you head around the electronics side of things before just making purchases. Otherwise it's the classic saying "all the gear no idea" 🤣 The best thing to do is study a channel that is mostly dedicated to wltoys speed run. Alot of general RC guys spread themselves thin trying to get their hands on everything. There is only so much one person can do in a day 😅 anyway looking forward to seeing your next upload with these and good luck on getting the 100

I had two of those cheap esc and both of the smoked before even getting a run

The ebay seller I get the same esc from hast the good ones. I have ran 3s many times on 1/10scake,no problem. Could be motor kv is to high. Get the surpass 150amp esc at Banggood for 50 us.

6:15 I was thinking it might be the cold, when I was in NJ my lipo run time on my RC's was literally halved in sub-zero temps. Did you do the droop screw mod to lower the front? That will help keep the nose down. 9:30 looked faster than earlier passes as well. Thanks for the shout out! I agree with your comments at the end and that's why I've not gone and put a TP motor in and a huge esc as I think with this car it responds very well to being kept light. I think with what your proposing it should go over 100, I am thinking that 0 deg temp didn't help today. Stay safe

You let out the magic smoke i

MCM represent. I have the Mira version of that poster

FYI I used a 2850 (4500kv motor-Toacon/LC Racing) Two 2s 3200mah batteries=4s and a 26 tooth pinion coupled to the stock 60 tooth spure gear For a 78mph run. That has a Tacon Pursue, same thing practically.

That's not a bad run still

She's fast but she did not look fast on the video. Great video👍💯👍

You need to do the mod1 gear conversion and toe out the rear tires buy turning the pin stays.

As usual love the vid but you need to get that Sidewinder in there😂

That tsky or T-Rex will handle 6s with the right motor. You need to know what the motor will handle and also the amps it draws.

🤯

🔥👍✌️

Try taking the wing off. It had to be causing loads of drag.

Except for the bump that was a pretty cool spot. I hate when the box fights back. I agree with you and not to be critical of people that do it but spending $100 on a car and $600 on a motor/ESC doesn’t feel like an accomplishment to me. I’m not sure what you have going on but that should have been much faster. I’m running a 2845 3930kv on 3s in my 144001 and get 60mph and I think there’s a bit more if I could find a place to run it. Anyway, thanks for the project update. 💯👍🏻👍🏻

I think the reason it wasn't going as fast in the first few runs is because the hobby wing ESCs usually need tuning with a progbox, since they usually only come standard running 70% power.

Sidewinder4 7700kv on 3s and u will hit it, get some higher C batteries as well.

Great video, nice runs. I think that truggy wing will pay off in the end. I am wondering if that lift is being caused by the body shell, its fairly open at the front, perhaps enclosing the front of the shell in some, so your not trapping air under the body and causing lift ???

Awesome video tho bummer weather was too cold to cooperate. To keep that rc stable,you should add/make a front splitter and possibly a rear diffuser being is already has a flat underbelly as that should definitely keep that thing stable at high speeds. If possible try to lower it and play with the spring rate and make them slightly stiffer as that should also help. Looking forward to seeing this thing go faster,lol

That wing is killing you, in fact, breaking it probably would have helped your speed, if you hadn't replaced it. It's out way past the back wheels, meaning as you get speed, and the air puts leverage on it, it LIFTS the front of the car. You don't need downforce at the rear, you're not trying to corner at high speeds. It's just wasted drag. A fin-eqsue structure near the back might help with straight line stability; both because if its shape and the fact that it moves the center-of-drag back significantly. (like you need to on planes or rockets) Some people have hit 100 with the stock wing, but as far as I know, there's no advantage to it. (other than moving the center-of-drag back, but there's better ways to do that, if it's needed at all) A couple other things: Use negative rake! F1 uses it, so should you :) The front needs to be lower than the back, this will create more downforce than that little wing, (with less drag too) and increase stability. Someone else showed that there are holes for grubs screws on the suspension to pre-load it, thereby lowering the suspension. If you did lower it, it's not enough. You have to remember that when accelerating, the car is going to squat HARD. And at speed, the wing is pushing really hard on the rear suspension, and there's no aero at the front to even it out. So by the time you're at 50mph, it's probably higher in the front than the back again. That body... is not exactly aero dynamic either. Not 100% sure exactly how much of a difference it makes, but remember that drag is a function of the SQUARE of you speed. The faster you go, the more every bit of drag matters! Considering the front is as brick-like as it can get, I'm guessing it's having a pretty huge impact. That body increases the cross-sectional area by at least double, if not more, not to mention the back looking about as aerodynamic as a pickup truck, lol. It may look good and make it easy to fit stuff under, but the faster you go, the higher percentage of your power you use JUST to fight the air resistance. The biggest thing is probably that pavement though. The aggregate (rocks) in the asphalt are half as big as the tires are wide, and the tar between them has worn down so much that you're only making contact with the tops of those pebbles, which are nether flat nor smooth. Imagine driving over that if it was all scaled up, it'd destroy your car, lol. Plus those cracks are looking like half an inch or more deep. Scaled up it's like driving over a drainage ditch... You can't get up speed if your suspension can't keep contact with the ground. Even if it were dry the size of the contact patch is, at BEST, going to be the size of ONE of those pebbles. It needs more traction, and I don't think just waiting for it to dry is going to cut it. For this, you really have to keep the scale in mind. Every crack is like a 3-foot wide pot-hole. Every 'bump' you see is a hill to the car, not a bump. The pebbles in the concrete are like hitting a 6 inch tall rock. If the car was bigger (especially the tires) they'd have an easier time dealing with the bumps (the same way you want big wheels on an off-road motorcycle). Usually bigger tires means slower, but on this particular surface, its probably the other way around. Either way, switching to a smoother street would be a huge advantage. There's a reason people running crazy fast 150mph+ rc cars do it on brand new pavement.

Try adding a little bit of downforce on the front, should stabilize it!👍🏻👍🏻🤘🏻

More truggy please. I just bought a tacon bulwark but there aren’t many performance videos on them

You showed the LC Racing truggy and it at least has decent gears in it- real steel. It’s hard to believe anybody can do speed runs on any WLToys vehicles with their pot metal gears. How do they manage to hold up? The LC Racing truggy might be a nice one to do speed runs on right out of the box. It already comes with a nice brushless set up.

The punch and excell options limit your amp-draw. This limits your top end as well.

Too cold for speed runs! Lol! Lipos loose power below 35° degrees... Still fast! 👍

Hey Tomley, definitely showing dedication when running in weather like that 👍 Great content 👌🏻 Can you advise where that road is please ? As it looks good for speed running

Put the hobbywing fusion in the 144001! It's geared pretty high so it might be ok on 3s......it's easy to take it out again too. Also one of the guys that managed to get his EMB-T to near 100mph ended up extending the nose on the body to prevent air getting under it and lifting up the nose.

High kv draws more current, low kv draws voltage.

Hi. Nice work. Can you convert wlcar to work with 3s . Or can you give me some information which model will work with 3s and what motor and ESC. Thanks

u can use 3s under 2000mah any bigger it will fry i have about 10 wltoys

Love your channel. You convinced me to purchase a WL Toys 124017, and I'm having a lot of fun with it! Do you happen to know where I can buy clear body shells for a custom paint job?

have u tried the sidewinder 4

i have that same esc on the way...i will stay 2s... i think i'll get around 45 mph on 4370kv

I’m also wondering if the vehicle is just not aerodynamic enough maybe trying a different body
