    Nice video, I have 5 of the scx24s and a set of the wheel weights...I was thinking of making a video and comparing them side by side, one with weights, and one without.

    I got a wltoys 144001 because of ur video and it’s REALY fun to play with we smashed it into the curb the second run and we bent the drive shaft butt we did put some grease in the diffs it took to long

      You can bend the drive shafts straight again if you put them in a vice.

    did your wheel weights come with washers or orings? the ones i bought came with 12 orings (3 per wheel). im assuming they gave me extra orings but where do i put them???

    • @10thScaleGarage
      @10thScaleGarage  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think so? I think they’re intended to go on the axel behind the drive pin to prevent the drive pin from coming loose.

    So is this a stock model before putting the weights?

  • @GeddyRC

    I bought the same set of wheel weights. For $12, it’s a great value for the difference you’ll feel. But some of these wheel weights are like $40 (!) and come on, 1/3rd the value of the entire car is not worth a minuscule difference in performance. Maybe a few upgrades sure but the math only works out if you’re buying the cheapest upgrades.
    I don’t understand how people spend $400 upgrading a $120 car when there’s such a lowered ceiling of performance, but this wheel weight set is a killer deal.
    Really cool video and nice course to boot!

    Not a fan of the loud music blaring over you guys on that second run. I would say duck it down or don't have it except in montages imo.

    You need a little more weight to make a bigger difference. I went from driving completely stock to ordering a bunch of brass and completely changed the way it drives. I put on Wheel Weights, Diff Covers and Steering Knuckles all at once and man what a difference, especially if you have lifted your truck. It is way too top-heavy out of the box to lift it without brass on the bottom for sure.

    • @10thScaleGarage
      @10thScaleGarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It has brass knuckles, diff covers wheels weights and Power Hobby suspension now.

    • @wallacengineering8096
      @wallacengineering8096 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@10thScaleGarage Nice man, take a look into other suspension options in the future. I got the HobbyPlus CR18/CR24 shocks because the stocks are 32mm long with 8mm travel while the HobbyPlus are 40mm long with 12mm travel. The only issue with those PowerHobby shock you got is while they are perfectly quality and nice aluminum, you spent the money for almost no reason. They are the same length as stock so all you have done is change the material. Hot Racing option shocks are the same way. Kenetic Double Barrel shocks seem to be the best option if you can find them on eBay.

      It lifted the ride hight quite a bit. It has way more flex now.

    • @wallacengineering8096
      @wallacengineering8096 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@10thScaleGarage Ya thats just the stock springs are too soft and can't push the truck to max ride height without preload. You can look it up: stock Shocks are 32mm long with 8mm travel, Hot racing and PowerHobby are also 32mm with 8mm travel. HobbyPlus CR18/CR24 shocks are 40mm long with 12mm travel.

    i wasnt impressed with the comparison, the first one might even be better then the second, it climbed clearly to the top with out issue, second time it went sideways and didnt complete teh climb .. so... yea .. also how can you compare the wheel weights as a second run with out 3 retry's for the bridge :P should have done the test in oppisite order to rule out skillz.

    • @10thScaleGarage
      @10thScaleGarage  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      What skills? Ha! No, I totally see where you’re coming from, but having driven multiple crawlers- stock and modified, the wheels weights make a huge difference.
