Dude... you are the "Mod King!!!" That 12428 is no longer a WLToys! Great job, thanks for sharing.
Thx buddy. I think I enjoy building/modding as much as fyling/driving.
RCing in SC went from being cheap to expensive but durable
I just got one a month ago and it was with wltoys
Wow I saw the bottle of smart water in the video 😂 I am going to start drinking that. You did an excellent job engineering your modifications into that. I love it when RC’ers have the 🤬 to do do something different and think outside the box.
Thx brother. I saw you subbed, thx for that. Check out the whole playlist of mine on this buggie. I've made several other mods since this video and have some fpv runs that turned out pretty good. Thx again. Take care brother.
🤘😁👍
I love the Camera moving along the direction of the tyres.
Thx. Stay subscribed for more .
Have a blessed day.
That is a really sweet set of mods! I love how you incorporated the FPV system.
Thanks for the kind words. Have a blessed day my friend !
😎👍
Pretty sure this video just sold me on buying this RC, I'm a newbie wanting to try out the hobby and I wanted to get something that you can upgrade along the way that doesn't cost an arm and a leg out of the box! Love the upgrades man, definitely gonna check into the controller mods as well!
Thx for watching . Virtually every part is widely available on most RC sites and Amazon. Hit me up if you have any question. Email in the "About" Tab . Thx.
Btw...check out my playlist on this buggie for some other cool mods not shown in this video.
🤘😁👍
What an amazing video and build. Many of us have been at this buggy for years and it took a TON of trial and error to get to where you did in a week!! Thank you very much for listing your parts as most can't be bothered. The FlySky GT3C comes with a rechargeable lipo that greatly reduces the weight. The wheel extenders, besides giving a greater stance also gives you more room for the rod ends to clear the inside of the wheel. I've tried using the body magnet kits to hold the back of my buggy's body down, but a better solution is to just pass a steel rod through the square body mounting peg holes. It's quick and cheap. Bend a hook at one end to make it easier to insert and remove. I stayed with the stock brushed motor, but beware of cheap knock off HobbyWing ESC's out there. They are advertised as being the real thing, but they fail in no time! ALL that you've done is amazing and I think we can all grab a few ideas to try. One mod that you didn't address is improving the actual steering. The bigger servo will push its way through a lot of resistance, but the steering itself needs to be modded. Some of us have used the bell crank out of a Rustler. Thanks.
Thanks for all the kind words. To see all the latest upgrades , check out my playlist for more ideas. Thanks.

Superb modification i have ever seen wltoys 12428.. i also like to modified such a cheap rc car(but it isn't cheap for me ) i watched almost all videos of wltoys 12428 on youtube. This is the best one..
I think fpv antenna should insert inside because it is easily to damage and vtx as well due to antenna .. keep it up
Thank you very much.
🤘😁👍
This thing is a beast even in 2022! Super cheap bundle upgrade and easy available replacement parts 😃🙌
Yes, best bang for the buck. 😎👍
Oh yeah, one more thing....there is a anti sway bar kit available too. It helps with chassis twist under acceleration. I think Horizon has that in stock still. And a 2 speed tranny option that was available in the twin hammers you can still get too.
Thx. I will definitely check those out. Thx for watching.
🤘😁👍
Fantastic rig! Very nice! If by chance you're still looking to upgrade or modify it take a look at upgrade parts for the Vaterra twin hammers. It's the same thing. You can get front and rear diff lockers from several different places, horizon, amain, and a few others. Vanquish had a full rear axle, may still list it. GCM Racing in Canada has a front conversion kit that puts upright shocks on, it replaces the front lower chassis section with aluminum and hinges the front like you did. The purpose aside from added strength is it completely opens the front space for battery or electronics and in the end balances it with a forward weight bias (if you move the battery) for improved climbing. GPM has a mess of stuff too. There are steering knuckles, C hubs, drive shafts, rear links,(Axial Wraith links from Vanquish may also work).
Those are great rigs bone stock. Yours is already amazing and needs nothing. Just thought I'd let you know in case you're still looking for something. Thanks for all the great FPV info! 👍
I'll definitely check out that site. I have a long range test planned soon as the weather cools down some. I believe I can push it past 1km. Stayed tuned for that. Thx for for watching. !
🤘😁👍
@@RCinginSC looking forward to the range testing! 👍
I guess I need to watch and comment on this since it comes up DAILY in my YT home page, lol. You put the wrench time in there.....
Haha. It's got a couple views so far.
@@RCinginSC My grasshopper will take it - said nobody ever
I run fpv on my senton blx and brushless tmaxx, but never thought about a servo to turn with steering, that's awesome! I wreck up alot going waay fast tho so I'd have to cut out the "window" of body and mount camera inside body or fpv would get wiped out
Yes, and that's what happened to me as well. In later vids you'll see that I have direct mounted the camera to the windshield section of the rollcage. It's far better protected. Feel free to check out my Playlist on the car for a ton more mods and upgrades that will apply to most any rc car.
Like crossfire installation and setup and even running GPS using a flight controller for the interface. Etc.
Thanks for watching 👀
@@RCinginSC nice , I don't have enuff extra quad parts to start throwing them on my rc yet but only thing I'd like to have is camera on a automated gimbal, atleast for up and down, my cars r hard to keep nose down ( waaaay over powered) and when all the power sets down the nose comes up nd u see nothing but sky ! I actually use my fatshark recons when I drive. My senton (not stock electronics , and on 4s) almost tries to fly when all the punch hits at about 55-60mph nd u can't really see it happening with goggles on cause it happens so fast! Awesome work tho man! I'll b checking all ur videos out, have one or two of fpv cars on my channel and LOTS of my other addictions.
@@erik120719 thank you, I appreciate the support 🙏
There's nothing I could suggest. That thing is beyond advanced.
I wish I knew where you got all those parts. I couldn't find any when I googled them.
Most suspension parts are available on Amazon. All the fpv equipment was bought from RDQ. The radio and RX was from Amazon.
That's a bunch of mods done in one week! Thanks for sharing your ideas :o)
Thank you. Sorry for the late reply.
Wow, these mods are awesome, I'm a noob to fpv quads right now, but just ordered this WL buggy because I always wanted a truck to play with, dont know if I'll go into as much detail as you, but thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching !
🤘😁👍
Thanks for subbing !
@@RCinginSC the hub extenders I havent seen anyone else do, but seems like a great idea to help with how much this one likes to roll over or just add wider tires too. How did your extenders hold up?
@@M.TTT. they are holding up great. I think there is a link in description or comment if you decide to add them. I think the tires are linked as well.
@@RCinginSC yes, i believe I saw those links there, thank you! Having links helps a ton so I appreciate that.
FWIW, the FlySky GT3C comes with a rechargeable lipo. That lipo weighs 1/2 of what the AA's do and especially less than the big add-on lipo. Both work, just extra info.
you sound like a genius i just getting into rc cars i want to get one of these i’m trying to learn what all these parts are and stuff i’d want to learn about modifying stuff like yours
Thx for watching. I hope you leanrned something. This model is a great model in it's stock version. I highly recommend it.
🤘😁👍
Nicr idea on having the FPV cam sitting on a servo, i am new to the hobby and was thinking of having a head tracker, thank God I saw yout video 🙏
Great build!🤘🏼 definitely gonna use some of those ideas on mine.
Thanks 👍
Your setup is mostly thesame as mine except the FPV setup. But damn I love that new paint.
Thanks for watching 😎👍
th-cam.com/video/dz63NWlMwCE/w-d-xo.html
WOW crazy awesome mods on that car. Great work man! I just bought one for myself and can’t wait to modify it.
Hey , thanks for watching. Check out the link in the description to the video I made a year later with all new upgrades and much much more. Have a good day
😎👍
Great video I just recently started working on my little wltoys , full aluminum upgrades including metal chassis , sway bars front and rear. I currently have 3 fpv rc cars 2 Losi E8ights TLRS on electric one nitro covered to electric. I think i will fpv My wltoys 12428 . Awesome video👍
Thank you. Check out my Playlist for more ideas. Have a blessed day 🙏
@@RCinginSC will do and thank you, have a blessed day brother🙏🏼
Oh 2.4ghz amplifier booster. Smart thinking. I had a amp for 2.4ghz in a box somewhere. 1w or 2w don't remember. Forgot I used it for betafpv lite radio that had horrible range.
But I was thinking elrs900 or crossfire and mount antenna high. And over 1w vtx I have with high antenna.
Just remember, crossfire is 900mhz. You would not be about to use a 2.4ghz booster with crossfire.
@@RCinginSC yea but my crossfire is already 1w.. and 5.8ghz vtx give out way before 900mhz.. just pain to use crossfire and set it up to use steering wheel transmitter. Need extra receivers and what not. I'll prob just use my drone transmitter
Man!!!! That looks awesome!! So much cool stuff
Thanks brother. I spent too much
$$$...but it turned out pretty good. Thx for the support. Btw, youve been silent in YT lately. Miss your vids.
RCing in SC yea man ive been slackin but ive also been busy lol trying to buy a house and packing and just too much goin on lol...i havent even flown in the last weeks 😢 hopefully ill be back to it soon
@@ch3w3yfpv42 ...sounds like ur a busy man. I hope the move goes well and hope to see ya flying soon !!!
very cool going long range with it
I'm not sure if that was a question , but yes, it will go very far. I've done a newer video on it just recently , titled "One year Later ". So much has changed on it. You should check it out. Thanks for the support as always.
Camera on a servo is brilliant
Thanks for watching.
😎👍
This is EPIC to say the least. Wow. Outstanding mod. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You digging deep in the vault. This is what launched my sub count. I'm mostly a quad guy, but my RC car vids do the best,. Go figure.
😎👍
@@RCinginSC You do some outstanding mods. 👍👍👍👍
Gd , new to the scene but have fenyui fy07 brushless version. Almost fully same car all the way around , just a bit more updated with some metal gears, diffs. But my God you are the insane modder!! Love your open hood as its what i came with myself on accident lol . But i have been trying to come
Up with the battery tray mod. And your idea is perfect. I already took off tire because it throws car off axis as is. Sorta wonder what you may be doing with all that range though!? Lol i could never see close to as far as your range will go with that setup . Lol one beast build though! You are def. one if not the top RC modder , builder i have ye to have seen on youtube yet and i have watched a lot of videos and seen nobody have this type of full all around knowledge .
Thank you for all the kind words. The long range is for fpv trecking around the neighborhood. Check out my playlist for all the mods I've done to this buggie. And later tonight I will be uploading another with a really cool mod that I think you'll like. Stay tuned for that one. Thanks again for the support. If you ever have any questions , just drop a comment, I'll be glad to help if I can.

awesome upgrades, looks great! I bought one of the for Christmas for my daughter. She ran about 5 or 6 batteries through it and stripped the rear drive shaft. This seems like a common problem with the power of the stock motor. What rear drive shaft do you use as I am looking to replace with one a little better? a lot of the reviews on the ones available say they don't tend to last very long.
I'm still using vvthe stock drive shaft. It's somehow lasted this long.
Very impressive! RC genius. That thing is awesome
Click on the link in the description to see what it looks like now. Thx for watching.
😎👍
Like the power you put in it. So your not concern if it flips over it will ruin that antenna?
I need to put on the metal rear axle... plastic more than likely broke because I lost power in rear wheels... newbie to hobby, nice little buggy, but after playing with my later bought Armma Senton 6S I no longer play with buggy. I think if WLTOYS made one as powerful as yours wheel extended and all, metal parts, more power it would be truly an awesome product. The plastic interior parts one currently on the market, just has so much potential, but fails too soon a few months later after purchase.
Thx for all the kind words. And thx for watching.
😎👍
Its flipped over dozens of times and it only bends the antenna a little. Very durable antenna.
Awesome mods my friend it's looking great😎😊😎😊👍🇬🇧
Thanks for watching my friend !!
Very nice build and fpv setup! Did you had any problems with installing the wheel extenders? Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the kind words . As far as the wheel extenders , funny you ask. They work and install no problem ... But...when you tighten the wheel down tight it slightly presses against the hub creating some drag. Easy fix though. I simply shaved off about .25 mm off the end that sits over the hub pin. Problem solved and the wheels spin free as a bird. The only other thing you will need to do is simply drill out the center of the wheel to 5mm so the extender screw can go thru the wheel. Easy enough since the wheel is only thin plastic. Takes about 5secs to do.
@@RCinginSC Thanks for the reply! Good information to know. Now i can order a set without worrying that they might not fit as they should! Thanks!
If you would like a link to what I bought, let me know.
Thanks man, i appreciate your offer to help and the information. This is what the rc community is all about! Have a nice day!
Great job man.

Thanks 4sharing 😍😍 great job dude !!!
Thx for watching. 😎👍
Excellent build and with style! I placed my order for one of these along with a set of oil shocks just yesterday. Any suggestions on maybe the top 3 upgrades aside from the fpv system? I have a limited budget but I did manage to snag up the truck for $60.
I live in Charleston and come from mostly a flying background.
If you're on a limited budget, then I'd would def do a link kit. The factory links are plastic and non adjustable. You already have shocks coming, and I'd prob put some wheel extenders and fatter wheels on. The stock motor and radio works pretty good so I wouldn't worry about that right now. Hope you enjoy it, post and share some vids for us. Thx for subbing.
🤘😁👍
Couldnt be more bad ass if you tried. Iv got a 1/10 nitro truck and been thinking of an fpv mod. This is awesome fairplay. How do the leds help when driving at night through the fpv cam? Can you still see everything or is it limited?
Since this video I've upgraded the LEDs to more powerful LEDs. Check out the entire "WLToys 12428" playlist for the latest upgrades. In the meantime, here's a link to the led upgrade vid . Road test at the end.

Awsome i got fpv pn mine to but i put the camera in the driver seat hard to drive because the servo is week might have to upgrade
Sounds cool. Thx for watching.
🤘😁👍
most impressed with the controller mods, using even rechargeable aa's is just a pain in the arse so the battery mod is nice, that 4w booster is a nice addition to, how far do you get with that on open ground?
I am still searching for a place to really stretch it out. Unfortunately , in SC , there isn't a straight level road in the entire state. 300 meters is no problem so I imagine if I can find the right place , 1km is doable.
Thanks for watching.
🤘😁👍
NICE!! How's she been running lately, any new upgrades? (Not that you didn't have enough of 'em)! Great job man!👍💯
Not too many more upgrades. More aluminum suspension parts and wheels. I have a few other vids on this buggie if you check out my playlist .

Does the servo on fpv get annoying driving. Turning camera ever little turn?
Cause I was thinking mounting fpv camera above roll bars.
The sturdier you mount it , the better the experience.
Hey nice video u got there.How do u replace a motor in wltoys 12428.Btw u earned a new sub.😀
Sorry I missed your comment. I'm sure you worked it out by now but you simply unscrew the screws thru the bottom of the chassis and pull the motor out. You may have to also remove the dust cover over the gears if it won't pull out easily.
You did an amazing job on this build what was the total cost
Thx. I'd have to estimate that I spent another $150 on everything, thx for watching.
🤘😁👍
Awesome truck. I’m looking for some instruction on some of the small front suspention parts.
I just checked , and some of the suspension parts I ordered from Amazon have been discontinued. But Banggood sells tons of parts for this buggie. They also off a full upgrade kit with all aluminum suspension parts. The main item I recommend is adjustable tierods. The wheels and hub extenders are linked in the description of this video as well. Thx for watching.
😎👍
RCing in SC cool thanks. We had an l969 and obliterated the front end within five minutes of the first use. Don’t want to do that again. Will probably copy your body and battery setup. Nice electronics work.
Bro nice 12428!! Btw what is your rear axel???
As I mentioned in the vid, just painted with blue metal flake . All internals are metal. Thx for watching.
Did you have to shim your metal gears as I find aftermarket gears measurements slightly off. Cheers
@@CA-RC ...if you are referring to the diff gears, they came stock with metal gears....I know right...shocked !!!
RCing in SC oh sweet that’s a touch for you then lol. I know there’s upgraded versions for around 248.00-293.00 available to buy, comes all metal but if yours was originally brushed and still had metal then that’s bargain haha 👍🏽
@@CA-RC yep , I was surprised as anyone. Thanks for watching. Have a blessed day.
Wow dude, that is totaly amazing! especially the camera, What is the running time of the car ?
Probably about 20 mins with 2200 3s. Thanks for the support. Check out the WLToys playlist for all the up to date mods on this buggie. I've done tons more mods.

Only thing fragile is the bottom case holding motor and servo which is plastic, very easy to get tear open on impact
I have a goolrc 3660 and it has a 5mm pinion and I bought the pinions for it and they're to big for the stock spur because they are M1. is there a replacement spur that is M1 for this truck?
Hi. Thanks for watching. The gear I used is linked in a comment in this video..
th-cam.com/video/ArikKe7JKzs/w-d-xo.html
The stock pinion gear module is actually a 32p 17T gear but I found a 0.8M 17T pinion gear for 5mm shaft motor that works just fine. The pitch is nearly identical. The 32P is standard and the 0.8M is metric . If I remember correctly, I touched on that in the video linked above do I hope that helps.
If you have anymore questions , let me know.
I got one of these I would like to up grade no near anything like this set up but this looks sick
Thx for watching. Good luck and have fun.

@@RCinginSC yea I got 1 also and I love it. I don't know anything about rc cars except the fact that I have that one and a gas powered buggy that's insane and suped up.

modifications that really inspire me. Is the FPV camera an upgrade for the long range?
Any analog camera with at least 600tvl is sufficient. Check out the playlist for many more upgrades done after this particular video. Also this Buggie was smashed when it was ran over by a pickup. (Check playlist for that ) and I started completely over with a brand new one. Thanks for watching.
Sweet mod 👍
Thank you 😎👍🇺🇸
I did a lipo mod and the thing popped wheelies going down hill! .... until I lost 4wd....now I have to replace the rear and front diffs
As I've mentioned in several comments, even though these are metal diffs, they are still limited in performance. Wheelies , doughnuts and burnouts are done with some risk of diff failure. I hope you get it back going soon. Take care.

Super rad videos!! What kind of range are you getting with your 600 watt transmitter?
I've been planning a true range test , but finding a long straight road in SC is virtually impossible. But I know it will go 500 meters and hopefully will be able to test up to 1km.

Most every part is available on Amazon without a parts list and most upgrade parts are available as well. If Amazon doesn't have it, then you could search Banggood.
I cut the ass end off mine too...and just ordered oil filled shocks.
Check out my Playlist. There were so many more mods done after this. Thanks for watching and God bless
I’m still dreaming of getting arc car I wish it was all highly modified for me because I have learnt really well from other youtuber and the only thing I knew was to get a metal drive shaft ball thingy I’m still new as hell I don’t know anything
That's the same place we all started brother. Just get what you want and go for it.

WOW 👍
Thanks for watching !
🤘😁👍
I wounder what the Optimum battery can be for this model RC with just stock internals
With stock electronics, 2s lipo and as big as you can fit. Definitely wouldn't do 3s on stock.
That things almost military 😂
Hey ! Thanks for watching. Check out my "WLToys" playlist for all the upgrades since this video was made.
😎👍
amazing job, do you remember how mucho you invest on the mods?
Altogether about $300. Check out the WLToys playlist for more current vids on this Buggie. It also got ran over by a pickup truck and I bought a new one and started over. I did a 4 part series on the rebuild.
Where did you order the parts I'm ordering one of these as well and want to upgrade it and what wheels and tires are those?
I have linked to most all the parts in several other comments. Thx for watching.
🤘😁👍
Can u tell me link to where I can get that spray paint. Or go into detail with what exactly kind and brand pain
If you mean the blue metallic paint , then it was a can I've had a while that I picked up at an auto parts store a while back. The frame is simply sprayed with flat black . Sorry I don't have a better answer. Definitely need to prime first or else it will chip off very easily. Thx for watching.
😎👍
How do you know if it is charged
The lipo comes out and I charge it on my hobby charger.
Dove hai comprato scatola differenziale posteriore in metallo?
Really cool upgrade💪💪😎, where can i get a signal booster like yours?
Thx for watching. Here's the one I bought. It will require some soldering to adapt it to your radio and powering it.

@@RCinginSC Did you do a video on that specific mod?
@@secretagb no I did not. No one ever asked and even though I wanted to, it's so item specific, that it would not apply to 99.9% of the people. It's very specific to my particular radio, and that particular booster and the chances of someone having both to do this mod would be slim to none....and slim left town. If it's something that could help you then perhaps I could try to help you somehow.
Also - does the DVR give you a voltage readout?
Yes , the onboard DVR is recording straight off the camera and the camera has built in OSD voltage.
So the camera is wired to the DVR and the DVR is wired to the 5V regulator? Which regulator should I get? thanks :)
To be clear, the camera is powered off battery voltage (3S) and the OSD displays that.
The DVR is powered from a 5v buck converter.
The regulator I'm using is this

You need to dial it in for your exact voltage requirement. There is a small pot on it to dial it right in while checking the output voltage with a voltmeter.
@@RCinginSC Ooo okay, I thought the cam only ran off 5V, I may get an all in one cam/vtx, but not sure.
@@M.TTT. most do run off 5v , this is a foxeer micro arrow that will take VCC.
@@RCinginSC hmm okay I may need to get that cam then. You used a separate vtx right
@@M.TTT. yes. I did use a separate 600mw vtx. If you don't care about long range, then an AIO cam would be just fine.
Hey brother I have a question hopefully u can narrow it down for me I put a austar ax5s reciever a 25g servo and a goolrc 4500kv with a 35amp esc running 2s lipo. My problem is as I drive i will just be cruising and it acts like my brake is engaging sometimes when I stop it jumps I'm pretty certain it's not mechanical. I'm brand new to the hobby so I'm learning as I go. Any info u can provide would help i would appreciate it . Also the servo bar I have on it is stock and I noticed it's flexing any suggestions with that
I'll try my best. As far as the braking/jumping issue...most ESC's have a crude calibration function built in. It sounds like the ESC is slightly out of calibration. Try this. As soon as you plug in the lipo,( with the radio on) squeeze the trigger fully in the forward direction and hold for one second , then push the trigger away fully in the reverse direction for one second. Then release it to the neutral position. While you are doing this you should here some beeps or tones from your ESC. Be sure to center your throttle trim before doing this. I have several goolrc ESC's and this usually takes care of it.
Before doing the Calibration, try just centering the throttle trim , plug in the lipo and see how it feels. You may simply have too much brake trim set and centering the trim and adjusting from there may take care of it. If that doesn't help, then do the calibration.
As far as the servo horn deflecting and bending, they do sell metal servo horns online. Just be sure to maintain the same distance (roughly) from the servo horn screw to where the steering linkage attached so the proper turning ratio is maintained. Hope that helps.
If you have other questions , feel free to ask.
@@RCinginSC thanks brother for the help. At work but I will try when I get home. Thanks again for the advice and keep the vids coming 👍👍👍
Cool I want to try it! Can you do a Link list to all the parts for the (fpv) setup! Thanks man.
The fpv system causing s basically only two components. The camera and vtx.
Any fpv camera will do. The foxeer micro arrow is a cheap but good option. Your choice.
Look on Amazon for vtx' anything thats 600 mw is good for reaching out there. Akk or Eachine are both cheap and adequate. Don't forget an antenna for the VTX.
Sir I have a question. My wltoy 12428 is in stock mode, can i change the battery to a 2200mah 25c 7.4v? Is this battery plug&play or do i have to upgrade something else? I just wanted stock, just batteries. Can i also plug 3200mah? Etc.... Thanks for the answer..
As long as the voltage is the same (2s), and it will fit in the battery tray, the capacity doesn't matter. So, yes, you can run as big of a battery as you want as long as it's 2s
