HL Truck Mods

Heng Long/WPL are now manufacturing 1/16 scale RC trucks, so it seemed sensible to create a forum area dedicated to the amazing things that members are doing with them. Post your builds, mods, and tips here.

I’m on with making some scale wheels & tyres for this, just waiting for some new TPU.

There’s been some cool new accessories released on Thingiverse for the ZIL 131 truck body, a full interior & a driven trailer, check it out!

HL Truck Mods

Post by midlife306 »

I’ve just found a site called scale3drc
They have lots of stl files for various truck bodies, I think they’re all in 1/10 scale but can easily be scaled to 1/16
Here’s an exampleImage

$10 each lol

Working on Stls for these, but they are going to take time
Happy to share with you guys here as i don't have capacity to get these printed any time soon.
I may be able to share 3D CAD files if anyone wants to play with them to make them fit things or add details etc, but they are HUGE files so i may have to put on USB and post!

Looks a nice truck to try. Glad it is not too expensive either so can be played with. Do they share the stls only though?
The COE looks cool for hot rod uses

As a group of us, we could always buy a few different ones ;)
