Wltoys 144001

Frustrated. I can't find many bodies that I like to fit on this chassis. Is there a way I can fit a 1:12 or 1:16 body to the chassis? If not is there a short course truck body that will fit? I guess after that I will go with the phat body mini.

take a look at what other cars they make in that scale and see if there is a body you like. Get that body and fit it onto your buggy.

I have tried. There isn't one in that scale. Super frustrated. Want something like a muscle car or jdm car. Have searched for hours with no luck.

Like what kind of work? I'm pretty new to this hobby grade rc car stuff.

Of course it fits, the WL Toys 144001 is a bad clone of the LC Racing EMB1.

Do you guys' stock motor get really hot, real quick? I was a bit surprised on how hot it got after a short run. My brushless 1/10 motors don't get anywhere near that hot. Maybe that's just the brushed motors normal temp?

 

[AClegg]

Brushed will get hot, but not "burning" hot. Usually, RTR kits will come gears really high. They do this to make it really fast. You can drop a tooth, or two, on the pinion and your motor will run cooler, unless there is something wrong with your motor.

Mine actually got so hot it let out the magic smoke, my motor mount is made wrong and the gear mesh is super tight.
