Motor mounts like to be married to the motors in my experience with WL toys. As I was unable to find one online, and had just ordered my upgrades, was looking to find a mount a.s.a.p. however, you have given me hope I can swap, or at the very least, drill a slot for an adjustment screw.THIS INFO is so important tho! @ 2:48
So happy I could help! I have struggled to get motors off motor mounts countless times also. The buggy’s are getting better with people selling mounts separately on amazon
Cool video, thanks for sharing. Makes me want one. Good to have a brushless version to take to certain places when I don't want to take the Big Rock v3 around.
Freeeekin awesome man ! I'm just getting into the electric part of rcs .I have always been hard-core nitro only ! These videos of this truck and the a979b are really changing my mind .so much so I have a959b on the way right now .with a few upgrades as well .! Keep up the great work !!
Cool! It's a little beast! I managed to get 65mph on 3s dude 🤘🏻 I'm going to do a 4s speed run this weekend which I'm sure will be the end of its journey with me 😖 Sweet video dude 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
oh crap brother you’re right! I watched a few videos before I posted the title. I forgot I watched yours and your top speed! 65 is crazy! Maybe i'll try again and add some weight to the front end... she's a little airplane at high speeds! Awesome work!
a tip i picked up was if you put rubber bands on the wheels is stops the ballooning and gives the cars tires more traction but they'd have to be heavy duty bands with an rc car at that speed it would shredd em in an instant B) and it should stop tire blow outs too
Great build can you put the link up for the motor and esc pls? I usually use banggood and get a hobbywing 3650 4370kv and 60amp combo as it’s only £28 and always works. Thankyou 🙏 great vid showing us how to do it as some people will be doing it for the 1st time 😎👍
🔥 BANGER Vid! Thoughts, comments, concerns: 1. I need a basher that does Mid-roll wheelies. That got me v H. 2. Idk how TF you captured that axle snapping but I was stunfounded you did. 3. Loved those camera angles on GENNAY. Really shows that hellaflush stance Boi cambergang action. Nice to see ya run some gas through that thing! Is this faster than the one you took to Lime Rock? Next track day is coming up!
1... I SHOW YOU BUDDAY 2...I wish i found it... she's 2WD now :( 3... Gennay is a little POS about as fast as the limerock basher, not as v-boy stanced though
Do you know if there is a cheap wltoys brushless buggy that all the electronics and motor can be swapped to the 104009. If so you could swap the electronics and still have 2 running RC’s that would be better than buying all new electronics for the truck…
@@413RC I think the brushless mjx buggy uses the same physical size motor and you can buy them for $99with no battery and charger on aliexpress. May be able to trade out the electronics on them. I have had it ordered for 2 weeks. I may try to frankenstein it up.
hi. i don't get it, Deans plugs are no where near 120Amp rated, not even the ultra version which is 60A rated. how come that 120A esc has a deans on it?
@@413RC you were filming yourself with a drone for no reason other than to show yourself off. What does any of that have to do with the car? If you want to show yourself off just do a video talking about yourself. We get it you have a mid class car and a drone with auto pilot. Good job.

my opinion is that this car is actually NOT going fast enough. meaning that the motor and gearing are much faster than the car itself. no point in upgrading it to be so fast, not even for let's say air control while jumping. if you keep loosing a dogbone of cvd every time you rung the car...that's a bit sad :( sorry for the negatives here, wltoys for me are just that: toys and nowhere near hobby grade
Its plenty fast with the setup I added. Its not really meant to be a speed run car. The point of this build was simply to show a cheap upgrade to a WLToys car. They are definitely unbeatable at their price point though
Bro, I have a question. Btw you just saved me, I spent hours finding the right video to see how to actually convert this to brushless. I still didn’t watch the tear down video on how to remove the stock electronics etc, so I don’t know how easy it is but ima ask, is it easy? Like how much time would it take and does it have any risks? Edit: can you link/tell me all the material that I need to do it, servo included, everything?
Hey man! The conversion is super easy! I have these electronics in it currently MOTOR & ESC: amzn.to/3t2nj0E Servo: amzn.to/3wZPiQO Remote Receiver: amzn.to/3GzxI9i
@@413RC hey, I converted mine to brushless and it’s so good!!! It is literally indestructible and I make it do jumps and wheelies and it’s all ok. I just struggle to make it not drift when trying to beat my speed record but it’s alright I’m getting better! Thanks so much! Edit: I also got a problem with braking that when I brake while I’m fast like half throttle or more it tumbles over. Do you think that I have to decrease the brake force or do I just have to like either brake with less force on the controller or just do a few quick brakes and when it’s slow brake completely? Anyways I don’t wanna interrupt you making content since I can probably find out this myself by testing it so cya!
@@nicc2366 depending on the ESC you have you should be able to decrease the braking force using one of those programming cards. Some of the amazon brushless systems don’t have much proportionality when it comes to braking. Seems like it’s all or nothing

Whenever I want a quick bash I always reach for the budget cars before I take out the Arrma 3S Vehicles. I cant help it either

Like those platinum series. I have the 3660,4300kv in my 12402A.
Awesome!
hi, really great and insane video. what a beast. can i ask you if is possible to put this combo on the 124019?
thank you
Thanks for the comment and kind words! I bet you could but the ESC is rather large and my not fit underneath the 124019 body

You can get a check electronics package for less than a new car. It’d be difficult to swap electronics from a smaller scale to a 1/10 like the 104009

Because its a cheap amazon ESC. you can definitely upgrade it or get a better ESC
It is a lie. Put 120Amp @12.6V continiuos load on that esc and it will melt after 10sec.
I love how there's people on here doing videos like this trying to make money even tho they obviously don't need any more money.

The camera is a bit too far away from the truck and you cant see the parts clearly. For people who want to do this
Upgrade it would matter more.
