Great video. Congratulations, you are a master. I am trying to make a RC mechanism to put a gimbal on top, specifically the Ronin RS 4. Because of its weight I know I will need to put big wheels. what is still not clear to me is which shock absorbers to put. Could you advise me ? Thank you very much and go ahead.

Well..... don't forget that they now cost nearly TWICE what the average WPL was, when they first came out! :X That does NOT justify only 7 years of inflation!!!!

I too hav enoticed the clear lack of kits, BUT also that alot of the new RTR models are not getting spare parts released for them, as in the body and other accesories. They do have the option of the new gearbox with a 370, which should help things significantly. Altough it would be nice to have that as an option when buying the RTR, rather than having to buy it seperatedly afterward. Also you have the 2 speed gearbox, it is quite bulky and has to be fitted with custom brackets to have better ground clearance.

You don’t buy a WPL with the intent of keeping it stock, I’ve seen a few videos like this from reputable channels and for some reason no one ever mentions their ability once upgraded.

I was considering to get the D14 for crawling and trailing videos because of the 4WD feature until I watched your video. Thanks for the insight, interesting why they chose to do so with the gearing. Im happy with my C74 though for lighy crawling and trailing but may still give this a try. Cheers mate 👊

There are only few of us who love to build these stuff. Most are after RTR. That's why I think they stopped producing kits and to bring the cost down, they have to use cheap components. My favorite two WPL kits are B36 and C44 and sadly, both have been discontinued. Yet, it's a good thing that many upgrades are still available. Out of all motor/gearboxes, I prefer all metal single speed gearbox and have been using it in most of my WPL and MN trucks.

kinda treated my c74 as more a cheaperish high detail hardbody an then started upgrading it with parts from other brands, like currently have losi mini LMT axles underneath cause their a slightly higher gear reduction and similar width to the MN D90 axles but I'd love to have a better gearbox but that allows for a full sized 380 in the nose of the c74 and possibly enough room for a 540 stubby

Ich denke Du hast mit Deinem Video den Nagel auf den Kopf getroffen. Die beiden Gründer wirkten in ihren frühen Interviews, als hätten sie eine Vision. Und ich teile Deinen Eindruck, sie hatten ein offenes Ohr für ihre Kunden und haben lieber drei Mal nachgebessert und beim nächsten Modell hat man immer einen großen Sprung nach vorne gesehen. Wenn ich da an Probleme mit der Qualitätskontrolle am Anfang denke... Und heute geht es auch da leider nur noch um Stückzahl. Ich habe mir den D14 auch bestellt und mir ist klar, das der einige Upgrades bekommen muss. Da hätte ich lieber einen Bausatz gehabt. Und am liebsten einen KM-Kit

What bothers me is that my mn78 is not only faster but also heavier but with better torque and modulation than my c64-1. The stock c54 was completely useless, I replaced the motor with the 370 with the metal singlespeed gearbox the same day I received it. I also find it strange that they changed the gearbox with the 180 to the 260 for the new ones because the 180 from the c24 in off-white was much better and probably cheaper to produce. My mn78 is relatively recent, when I opened it it had a 370 inside instead of a 280, it seems like MN have been listening to the negative reviews of the launch. The MN82 does come with the 280, it is a little slower and has less torque than the current MN78. Maybe there is market pressure for these cars to be faster, maybe their main target audience is not adults who like to modify like us, but children.

I'm waiting for a new modell, which I can't wait to have. So the Jimny is my newest wpl. And I love it like my others B, D, C and E. For example I think an improved C74 new modell I couldn't resist.

Have to agree , I have a couple of c24’s and a c34 , they are great but the c54 I modified to the older style gearbox as it could not perform off-road and the d64 is just too fast and useless off road . However the MN brand are going the other way the new MN82 is brilliant .

I really didn't know about WPL until recently so I don't know if I am qualified to commit on this. I have 2 WPL's with 2 more on the way. All are RTRs and I know I have to upgrade them. Thinking back, I kinda wish I had gone with a SCX24 in the 1st place. It's seems to be a better crawler out of the box than a fully upgraded WPL, but I just wanted a cheap way in.

As much as i like the Improvements on the latest WPLs, there's also a few odd changes! I think if the design guys looked at the most popular small scales and based a parts design on them they'd be much better! Knuckles could do with a redesign at least! And why, oh why, with new chassis, new parts, new models etc etc, are they still running a 5mm hex!? Given no other WPL wheels fit (expect C74, maybe C64 too?) and no upgrade option from WPL, it'd make sense to have this as their 1st 7mm hex offering 🤔
