You have to hand it to WPL, they put their profits back into improving the products. They could have easily just left the older models as they were and only bothered improving new models going forward. The people who run the company seem to actually be genuine RC enthusiasts.
Check out their official fb group if not already on it. The WPL guys are awesome and go out of their way to keep a base with their followers. These are ridiculously detailed and functional for cost imo.
So glad you're a WPL fan now. They are great value for the money and the online community that they have built up is worth so much more than just the trucks. Love your vids Kev, always entertaining 👍
I took my family hiking on a popular trail a couple weeks ago and there was an older couple with a pair of crawlers cruising the trail and working obstacles. My kids were completely entranced by it. So I just ordered a couple of the white RTR C24s for them. I’m glad to see them perform reasonably well. Maybe, if the kids stick with it, I’ll order up a kit version for me. Thanks for the video!
Takes a lot to make an RC car go that speed. The world record holding bullet car took years of trial and error.. 160mph is a common speed, he would need to keep the car controllable after that speed which is tough
Anything Kevin please it’s not like it takes much time and effort to make a car go 200mph. (Sarcasm). Also the 100mph RC car off road I can’t wait to hopefully see more of that assuming you are continuing!
I'd say back when I got one (the small motored one) I was good in getting the feyiue one instead of wpl, mine worked great aside from the non proportional steering
@@KevinTalbotTV Do you find your Trepadors on the Landrover do a similar thing if sat for a few days? I had some 37' mud tyres that did that on my Patrol 🙃
Went down the WPL worm hole 2 days ago, It cost me £250 when I got out. I bought all sorts, Orange FJ and the Suzuki truck and nearly every upgrade. Really looking forward to building them. Excellent review.
Yaaaay! I'm so keen to see you get into these, they're much more of a "make it your Own" type of RC. Heaps of upgrades, parts are cheap and creativity is abundant
I bought the WPL red truck with a flatbed for my two year old, I honestly think it’s a awesome little truck, he did burn up the motor and the battery was junk but for 20$ off Amazon I got two 1500mah batteries and a new motor. The electronics are up high Under the hood so even with a little mud it’s okay. Glue the tires on his started slipping bad in the wheels. All in all great little truck.
I bought this truck and the WPL D12 and used parts from both trucks to make it into a 4wd trail truck, the motor is being switched from the stock motor to a 260 motor today so hopefully it’ll crawl a bit better and be more versatile like my C74 is
The thumbnail!! He looks so disappointed and sad! XD. That's exactly what a kid would look like if they got something that wasn't very good for Christmas. Glad you believe in being brutally honest about RC cars, Kev
On the grey trucks, can you loosen and rotate the rear axle , so that the prop shaft is straighter. This will lessen the notchy rotation of the tyre wheels. The universal joints are almost at the limit of their articulation. May possibly require the propshaft too be shortened
Thanks Kev for these hands on reviews !!! You test the rigs so that we know what is for us and not. 👍 I like the white one very much. I thing it looks absolutely EPIC. 😘 to you!
I got one and bought all aluminum suspension and a two speed transmission on Banggood. It’s amazing. But all in it was about $235.00 bucks. But it’s so badass.
@@destroyerlash I put the tires (without the rims) in a ziplock bag and sprayed about half a can of WD-40 and closed the bag and soaked for about 48 hours. They still stiffen when cold but they’re WAY softer.
People don't appreciate WPL's "entry level" hobby grade rc much !!! They are great!! The company is great for ppl who don't wanna spend much, tons of upgrades and parts
hi kev love the videos so much i been asking about 40 times now I'm not sure if you seen my message before but can you tell me some good upgrades for my slash 4x4 and when are you going to make another slash video
heh, a friend of mine got a WPL army truck before they got good. His driveshaft broke and we both hated WPL. However, I'm quite pleased to see that WPL has come such a long way. Good job over at WPL, keep up the good work.
Hey Kevin. Hello from the states / Ohio. Thanks for entertaining us. I really enjoy your videos above all others because your decisive. No intro credits, you just get right to the point. Much appreciated. Look forwarded to your future projects.
I got something like that a few years back that was made by JJrc and I’m considering replacing the suspension, motor, steering servo, and esc to turn it into a hobby grade crawler
They are cheap but they can be changed to be very good good too see you giving thumbs up the c44 it's definitely the best they have so far along with the D12 Imo . Great fun for little money!
I had one of these and mainly got it for a display model, but ended up giving it away. It's mainly an indoor flat carpet car to entertain the cats, but aside from that really could not do too much.
My first 4x4 was a 1978 Toyota Landcruiser. Same color as your RC model, but without the flatbed. It did fantastic in snow and mud, but 10mpg was steep for gas at $.79/gallon. I'd sure like another one but they don't sell them anymore in the U.S. So I'll have to get the rc. Great review.
c24-1 is awesome. my first crawler was axial scx10. that thing is just too good. and expensive. wpl gives me more challenges and wrenching which i like .and it is dirt cheap as you say. just superglued the tires. hope they stay on now. love the video . cheers!
I had the same car. Turned it on for the first time. Steering is not working Went to a park with it Steering works Take it home Throttle won't work This rc car is truly bad New one looks and works very nice (I'm talking about the one in the video) I want it.
I mean it's not "super BAD BAD" hahaha! I love their battery tray choices on the models honestly. Such nice little locations. Great video as always. Can't wait to do my own little reviews and such. Love the inspiration as always.
I am not even going to continue the video Until I have said my peace. If anyone who watches this video says that Kevin is somehow not fair about his RC cars and his testing of them. They are talking out of their back end I don't know how anybody could hate on Kev he is so fair about everything I wish you nothing but support Kev
WPLFanboy... I knew you'd come around 😍
haha! they are cool ill give you that. Just 1st impressions were bad!
Yeah, you got what you paid for when they first came out. Some of the WPL purists are nearly at Arrma/Traxxas Fanboy levels ;)
I've had a couple issues..
but customer service has been incredible and you can tell they care.
@@RCRitterFPV They do mate. They really want people to enjoy their products 👍🏻
Took him long enough ;D

They're very responsive on the official wpl Facebook page too.
The more surprising thing is that WPL only has 5 guys working.

I agree
I’m not gonna be surprised until they make Crawlers and Trucks better than Axial’s.
Who thinks kev should build his own rc car
👇
That would be cool
He already has
Porsche 911 rally car
He already has
Porsche 911 rally car
He should build a crawler though
He did a lot before
Kevin’s the only guy to hit the window on his Lamborghini and say tumble Wumble 😂

When is the worlds fastest car project coming up ?? I really can't wait to watch it 🤧🤧🤧

@@IntegraDIY yeah I’m looking forward to seeing how the stability is maintained. Going to have to use some sort of assist I would imagine
I know

Oh hey didnt know you watched btw love your content
Now the crawler time begins 😀😀
Yep
It began
I love how the tires on the kit were kind of flat on one side for sitting for so long 😂
yeh annoying!
@@KevinTalbotTV Do you find your Trepadors on the Landrover do a similar thing if sat for a few days? I had some 37' mud tyres that did that on my Patrol 🙃
@kevin Talbot
A bit of heat from a heat gun may fix that.
That's why all my crawlers I put something under them so they dont flatspot. My wraith 1.9 I just flip it over since the roof is so big and flat lol.
That little pickup is pretty realistic and it's quite nippy ! and only £42 👍
WPL watching kev’s videos: make it stronger !!
KEV: proportional and suppleness !!!
I think this is the only channel that TH-cam notifies me right away
Went down the WPL worm hole 2 days ago, It cost me £250 when I got out. I bought all sorts, Orange FJ and the Suzuki truck and nearly every upgrade. Really looking forward to building them. Excellent review.
WE need more Crawler and Drift Cars please.
ARRMA better WATCH OUT that WPL is a BEAST!!!!!!!
Yaaaay! I'm so keen to see you get into these, they're much more of a "make it your Own" type of RC.

Finally.. i love wpls mostly because of scale detail and i can afford them 😂
O yeah! WPL has come a long way and hope they keep getting better! Great video as always!
the d12 is easily upgradeable for drifting and you can even get bodykits and aftermarket light kits for it, itd pretty neat, im picking one up
Nobody:
Kev: and it’s got buttons!
Me: WOW
Nice job Kev. I do miss the indoor tracks you previously setup for these type of comparisons. Those were fun and covered most all bases.
you are my favorite TH-camr
Nice review. This is so nice to see. Glad you gave wpl another shot, They really do deserve much more love. Keep it going bud!!!
My wife bought me the WPL C24-1, and I am pretty impressed. Looking forward to upgrade it
Finally a crawler vid again yay kev
Loved that Japanese small business truck @4:21. So iconic!
Kevin, just casually drives an rc car on his lamborghini, then proceeds to tumble said rc car ONTO said LAMBORGHINI
i always almost shut my eyes during his lambo-crawls haha

Who else thinks the rwd truck should be a drift truck. Swap the motor for a ripper and put 8s on it and make a burnout machine with it.
👇
What about a ripper motor?
Moon Moon
That is what I am talking about
Kev: finds this out
Kevs next video: attaching a ripper motor to the rear wheel drive truck
BTW don't tell kev
@@MoonMoon-by6cf don't tell mere!

The Intro: This one here, This one here, This one here, This one here
Me: hey kev how often do you use your lambo
Kev: when I'm testing rc crawlers
Thanks Kev for these hands on reviews !!! You test the rigs so that we know what is for us and not. 👍 I like the white one very much. I thing it looks absolutely EPIC. 😘 to you!
Great vid Kev!!!! These are cheap and fun!!! Win, win!!!
Wpl by far my favourite brand at the moment, really impressive little cars for the money, and great customer service 😎👍
Casually driving a rc crawler on a lambo
Yay im actually early this time. Kevin, I am going to upgrade my car to brushless, what tools will I need?
Make sure your transmission is metal geared or buy metal gears
Depends on the car.
The car is a redcat racing blackout XBE
Yea depends on car might have to get a new esc and battery and charger depending what it takes
I'm gonna probably get a new esc anyways, my wires are exposed and power is lost too easy. Thanks for your input be
You made a good video this time
I really like the one that looks like a 1985ish Toyota pickup truck.
The White Hilux? It’s pretty good. It’s called the WPL C24 and C24-1
Things awesome for the price only thing I would like to change on mine is more aggressive tires
I got one and bought all aluminum suspension and a two speed transmission on Banggood. It’s amazing. But all in it was about $235.00 bucks. But it’s so badass.

Why do I enjoy watching someone playing with toys
I know, we should all get our own rc toys
Now these are dirt cheap

Kingzhead moter mount and tekno m6 Axle and a hobbywing max8 combo
I’d say metal shocks, brushless like he said and maybe rpm arms if you jump a lot
@@itchyprince3793 rpm don't work with tekno m6 axles flex to much traxxas heavy duty but stock is not bad
Lamborghini: so watcha gonna do with it
Kev: something
kev plz rc plane wltoys f949
very nice of you that you give the manufacturer a second chance, that is not a matter of course
Truck hits lambo hard: “tumble wumble”
Me: WTF ARE YOU DOING

I’ve been saving up for forever for the Traxxas X-Max and your the one who inspired me to get it ps. I’m 12 so I’m not getting that much money lol

Who cares that your his indian sub
Take a shot every time he says this 1 here
Nice range of cars, they go well too.That little white Kei Truck is a ridiculous idea for an RC vehicle. I love it and kinda want one now.
2 second commender

I have 4×6 car kevin are you the best TH-camr
The WPL V3 kit gives trail brake on first gear, and will run 2s, and 3s lipo.
They are cheap but they can be changed to be very good good too see you giving thumbs up the c44 it's definitely the best they have so far along with the D12 Imo .
Great fun for little money!
I certainly second that Fonzie,the C44KM is my favourite too.
@@semperatis I haven't started mine yet but the kit looks very impressive 👍
No way he crawled it on the lambo
those RC cars are actually pretty good
I love when he squishes tires and says; oooooh supple
The little 2WD pickup would be a hilarious drift car.
That Brown one looks EPIC
Told him to do this on is Live you are the only TH-camrs that actually listens to the fans
Cool how far cheap RCs have come and sat to see they have met with Tamiyas current standard XD

Very cool with the whole line-up. Got them too. You forgot the 6x6 versions 🙂 New video?
c24-1 is awesome. my first crawler was axial scx10. that thing is just too good. and expensive. wpl gives me more challenges and wrenching which i like .and it is dirt cheap as you say. just superglued the tires. hope they stay on now.
love the video . cheers!
WPL has came a really long way from where they started. Good for them and us!
I had the same car.
Turned it on for the first time.
Steering is not working
Went to a park with it
Steering works
Take it home
Throttle won't work
This rc car is truly bad
New one looks and works very nice (I'm talking about the one in the video) I want it.
i love it kev that you review wpl cars to. My favorite? all of em!
The detail and realism on these are very good
I have the red one and my son loves it . this one is definitely an upgrade
When you said ''suppleness'' I was laughing so hard.
Nice Vid as usual kev! RC mythbusters!!! haha...
Wow those small Rc cars are really getting better. Soon there gonna make a minni x maxx and a mini armor outcast
He opens a unboxes a car like he's throwing away a box😂😂
Id tell this guy to keep his HULK hands off my stuff. What a freakin' hammer hand.
Love how u manage to get the old Lambo in nearly every vid Kev! Can't blame you, i would too 🤣🤣
your unboxing skills are unmatched!
I like how I watch every video of your rcs going through hell and then I jump of a table with my first ever rc and it all brakes
Theres one more you should do, it's a 6×6 military truck (b36)
I mean it's not "super BAD BAD" hahaha! I love their battery tray choices on the models honestly. Such nice little locations.
Great video as always. Can't wait to do my own little reviews and such.
Love the inspiration as always.
Check out a 1080 hobbywing esc for one of your crawlers.. major difference!!
You should make a military vehicle team
That suzuki carry is actually pretty sick lol

Can't wait to see you out rocking that beast Goblin, Kev!!! Send it till you end it BOOOOOOOOOYYY! !!
I love the video!
Hey Kev why don’t you take out the Rustler in your next video?
Awesome video kev, keep it up👍🏻
Best thing about the WPL trucks is they are very easy to upgrade, and they are low cost! Should also try the 6x6s.
