Bro, sorry to bother you however could you recommend a few budget rc bashers for my 8 year old son? MJX 14210 is just too fast for him and he hates my RGT18100 Crawler😂. Appreciate if you could take a few minutes from your packed schedule to help me out, bro.

People still think I’m dishonest that’s the funny part 😂😂

Friction Shocks…..Pointless 😂 Love the channel, you are brutally honest, love it

The 10428A from back in the day, is maybe my favorite car in my R/C fleet, that includes loads of expensive cars too.

I think you're right. They probably had parts that they don't use and just Frankensteined something together to make a quick buck. MJX is killing them in quality and maybe they just decided to throw in the towel. Who knows? It kinda resembles the 284161 only way cheaper. I'd rather have MJX anyway.

WlToys has really blown it these last few years. It’s a bummer. They got me started in the cheap RC hobby with the 124018.

I bought their little mini 1/28 scale ones last year and they been fun, work surprisingly well outside on the path / road as well. I wouldn't get anything else from them though. I have 4 MJX and they have been solid.

At the time of writing this the Hyper go 16208 is on the Banggood for 78 quid. Brushless, lipo, upgradable, adjustable, 3s, metal this, stronger that, fast, and some bits even have oil in them. I'd say that's probably worth the extra 13 sheets over this.

A much better option

There is just too many budget friendly options that are a way better deal than this thing. WLtoys needs to step it up!

hello, do you think you could look into the hsp wolverine?, its a really fast budget basher that has alot of aftermarket potential if that makes sense.

In today’s market there are so so many companies that are putting out decent RC vehicles that are pretty good and budget friendly and with WLToys just putting out complete garbage nowadays it makes no sense. This is the time when they need to step their game up but it seems like they’ve gone the “ Department Store “ route rather than the “Hobby Grade” route?🤷🏻‍♂️ love the review brother.👍👍💯💯🙂

thanks for your hoenst reviews

Maybe... trying to stay afloat? That would be sad

Agreed 💯% mate.!! 👍 👍 Wltoys have had it.!! I don't think they'll go bust or anything, but I definitely think they've lost their good reputation.. They've actually been around longer than most people realise & they've released quite a few different models over the years, I always liked the look of their 1/8 HPI Apache desert buggy copy from about 10 years ago but they weren't actually that good & they're impossible to get. Their cheap, fast & durable 1/12, 1/14 & 1/18 buggies were their crowning achievements imho... You simply couldn't go faster for the money when they came out.!! 👍 👍 👍 I've had a couple of them & I was pretty happy with them at the time, they're all in the spares box now though because they're not exactly a long lasting product.! 😉 I remember paying £34 for the 1/18 one (I had the 550 & the 380 motor version), £55 for the 1/14 one & £85 for the 124016 brushless version.! The 124016 is definitely my favourite, it's actually still in decent running condition & I still use it occasionally.! The prices have gone up by around 40% in some cases which immediately makes them lose to the competition.! I doubt there's anything they can do to reclaim their cheap RC top spot other than a complete company shake up & a cash investment for their R & D department.... They'd better hurry up before what's left of their reputation is gone though.!! The problem is innovation.! They haven't innovated a single thing, they've only ever copied other manufacturers like LC Racing, downgraded the materials to be just good enough & changed a few cosmetics (often with less than tasteful results)😉, which isn't necessarily a terrible thing as long as the quality is still decent & the price is low.! Both of those things are clearly absent in their current offerings with more & more examples of them cutting corners to save a few pennies.. FRICTION SHOCKS IN 2024 FFS.!🤯😲 MJX, Rlaarlo & the long time budget king HBX are wiping the floor with them.! FTX (many of which have actually been HBX models) are probably the best budget option because of their HUGE range, reasonable prices, quality, performance, upgradability, decent durability & fantastic parts support.!! No, it's not looking good for Wltoys.... Who knows, they could blow all our minds next week by releasing an awesome lineup of models that are cheaper, faster & more durable than the competition for loads less money.... They've done it before.!! I'll certainly be there for it if they did.!! 👍 Stay safe out there & the very best wishes from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍

Some excellent points there mate. The cheap/budget rc market is so insanely competitive and for that reason I just can’t see them making a good enough come back. They ruined their reputation a while back and a lot of that is not listening to customers/reviews. Whilst rlaarlo and mjx aren’t perfect they are excellent at listening to their customers and feedback which is why they are doing incredible things at the moment and can only see them getting even bigger and better. Wltoys are over IMO they just can’t compete anymore

Zinc alloy = monkey metal!! Looking like wpl may be on their last leg for sure

Looks like they are focused on making kids toys for younger children. Maybe their sales in China are up. Maybe the production cost wasn't matching the profit. Who knows?

Yes Rlaarlo .. I was typing to fast..I’m a big fan of new Omni terminator ..got one few back.. love it.. on the small side compared to my arrmas but one of the best new cheap rc on the market!

100% just wish they made it a proper 1/10 it would have dominated! They missed a massive opportunity!

I really hope WLToys sticks around... I've been happy enough with their products in the past, mainly because they offered good band for the buck and helped keep costs for R/C vehicles across the board reasonable. Just look at what an equivalent model from Traxxas or one of Horizon's vendors costs these days... YIKES! LOL!

I agree problem is things started to go downhill when they increased prices far too much for some of their older models. People quickly found alternatives 😕

It’s a shame to see what has happened to Wltoys. They had such a nice run a few years ago. Now they’re not even competitive with mjx and others. I still enjoy my 144001 but it seems like that was their peak.

Maybe we were wrong about them all the while. They are indeed toys as their name suggest and were never meant to be hobby grade. Lol

I have that same tire but it's worn out

This thing looks like it's designed to help MJX etc sell.. I saw the mjx for £85 Inc vat on banggood the other day.. yeah £20 more, 3s, brushless...

8 years ago msybe this wouldve been a steal. 2024? Ehhhhh might as well just pay extra and stick to one of the good Wltoys, rlaarlo, hbx or even a Grom This ain't it

The 124008 and 010 are great durable cars at a fantastic price

Wow seems like they just said screw it and went full toy grade just about. Seems like the competitors and hobby has passed them by

I picked up 2x 124008 Wltoys from Ali express for 57 pounds each, 1 has a new Phat bodies shell with chunkier wheels, the other original shell and stock... that model is very durable, more than quick enough on 3s and at that price who cares about bashing them around, my little boy loves both and he races with his mate. if WLToys had developed that road with durability I, sure they would be doing better,,,, or is that Rlaarlo (which I believe is the same parent company).. could be that WLTOYS is literally going to be toy rc cars and Rlaarlo is the quality, hobby grade stuff? could be wrong, I'm just guessing..

LOL you are so right you cant win the fanboys will come out and attack if you have anything critical of their brand. I know its twice the price but the new Mojave Grom is way better its not very fast at 22mph but it is so much better than this its worth the price.
