Thanks so much for this video even though it's now 1 year old haha but I'm a new comer and was looking for the perfect place to install a new receiver on my mn99s and I was very pleased with what you come up with....cheers again mate....must be nice to know your old videos are still helping people like myself out👍👍👍👍👍👍....thanks again mate
Congratulations on the video done very well. You understand all the work of changing cables that many do not explain. A question the "thicker" motor cables do you know AWG are "millimiter number"?
Ya them magnatizer/demagnatizers are vital to working on small models. The one I have is about 12 years old. Doesn't look anything like the one you have but does the same thing. For anyone on a very tight budget you can use a strong magnet to magnatize/demagnatize your drivers. Go in one direction to magnatize about 8-10 times and the opposite direction twice the times to demagnatize.
Nice work and very well explained for the beginners 👍 Regarding the transmitter I think you would be better off getting a Flysky FS-GT3B for around €30. It has 3 channels, a 10-model memory and a nice big backlit digital display. The full range 6-channel receivers cost around €10 each. Even cheaper 3-channel receivers are also available but with reduced signal range, but still good enough for cars.The transmitter has other nice features such as end points and exponential controls. I am currently waiting for my MN-D99s to arrive. I will be upgrading the electronics with a 25A ESC and a 2435 3300kv brushless motor. I will be using the 7th model memory on my Flysky transmitter, so I still have 3 more models to go before I run out of memory space. Maybe I should set this as my limit and stop buying more rc's haha ☺️ Cheers and have a nice eve !
@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 I'll do that. Thanks for the reply, to me there's nothing worse than a pristine used off roader, Many years ago when petrol was 30p a gallon , off roaded an Austin Champ.Showing my age !
@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 Colour was just becoming available, could still get away with running the beast on paraffin when cash was thin ( 12p a gallon at the local station. The good old days ! Just watched your vid , will get my paint box out.
Just with that ESC upgrade you get more power and if you got space for a 40 amp ESC you get even more power, that remote is cheap and good, but if you ever find a way to use the 3rd channel on it please make a video I can only use it for a horn but not for 2 speed gearbox servo or lights, nice rig
I'm wanting to upgrade my 4x4, once I've got all the parts that I'll need to do so. I want to upgrade the steering on mine, because it's rubbish not being propulsion steering. It's either on or off at the moment and I want to be able to control it better. 👍
Very informative, great video! BTW, I recently bought MN 99s and I've seen videos making the unit waterproof. Unfortunately, most of them are non english speakers. I hope you can make one video of waterproofing a stock MN 99s. Thanks in advance.
I've got the same transmitter and receiver but I've got a dynamite esc. My car will steer but I've got no drive, any ideas? It isn't a faulty esc I've had it back in my twin hammers so it must be the receiver or transmitter.. it also keeps beeping at me... any help would be massively appreciated.
They do make a big improvement over the stock electronics,don't they? The only difference between us is that I went for the GoolRC TG-3 transmitter instead.
Hi mate. Great video. I was hoping you may be able to give me some advice.. I blew the motor driver chip when connecting a 3000ma 7.2v battery and now I need to replace it. I see this as a good opportunity to upgrade a lot of parts. I’m thinking maybe the 370 motor, new 20a/30a esc (is that the same as the transmitter circuit board?) and possibly a 2speed gear box.. not sure what I’d need for that. Advise on what parts I need and where to get them would be greatly appreciated! Thanks mate
@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 Unfortunately the link for the esc is not working for me in the US would you have a different link by any chance? Banggood or Ebay? Thanks for your help👍
Hi! So what are the gains of new electronics? Is it waterproof, I'm guesing the original board isn't waterproof or? What about the motor? Can you drive it through water? Also, how are your driveshafts doing? Mine when climbing very steep terrain start making noises as if the sprockets are skipping on one another, do you know maybe, are they plastic? Thank you and have a nice day.
The gains are more power and a bit more control. They are not waterproof you have to do that your self. At the moment I am still running the original driveshafts and they are holding up pretty well. Metal shafts are well worth the money though as the plastic ones do eventually go. 👍

Is a 30A Brushed ESC Electronic Speed Controller For RC Car Truck Boat Motor Part good for a WPL C24-1 rc car? and Can you send me a link for the plugs (Female and Male)?
Yes I may be able to help. I've had the same problem which I traced back to a dodgy pin in the connector that plugs into the receiver. It worked loose at the truck just stopped. I just managed to push the wire back in with some small nosed pliers. Is the voltage of the battery within spec? 👍
@@topihitam3510 your 30amp ESC should be more capable of taking the standard voltage. I was thinking you may be running 3s or something higher. Definitely make sure all your connections are secure. 👍
Hello, Can you help me? 😊 My MN99S stock receiver was burned and has a code of YX-2.4G-150R-V. I bought online the same receiver with a code of YX-2.4G-150R-V1 it has an addition of 1 after the V. Will the stock transmitter work with my new receiver? I asked the seller and he said it will work. He even asked his supplier and they said that it is now the newest version (the one with V1) the factory produces and it will just work fine but I still find it skeptical if it will truly work because the code isn't same. I am worried if the stock transmitter will not pair to my new board I ordered.
Hello 👋. I'm going to be honest I've never paired a stock board to a transmitter before. I've always bought paired items. I'm not even sure how you go about pairing the two to be honest. I would be very interested in how you get on though. Sorry I couldn't be more help. 👍👍
@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 So, if I decided to upgrade to the Split Transfer Gearbox with 370 Motor+Servo, do I need also to upgrade for a new remote control? Or just if I also change the 20A Car Brake ESC Brush Electric Speed Control? Thank you
@@luisk5582 to get the best out of it yes. I think if you get a transmitter with a forth channel you can use that to activate the servo for the gears. 👍👍
Hello friend I'm having problem with my remote control it doesn't respond when I press forward it goes backwards and when I press backward it still goes backwards is there anyway I solve tish problem plz let me know thanks have a nice day
Wow that's really strange. If it was reversed completely then I would say try swapping your motor wires round. But it seems you have only backwards on the transmitter. Is this a brand new RC? 👍
@@farazhassan2219 it hasn't gotten wet at all (the board?). I would say it's manufactured incorrectly as in how it's been wired up. If it's brand new it really needs to go back to the supplier. It's just weird that it goes backwards on both directions on the controller??? 😨

Got one of the kits coming. Someone built it, and decided they didn’t like it. Gonna grab a 370 motor and aluminum transmission and make it better 😁
