Totally Awesome! Great truck and trailer :)


I got bored yesterday and decided to make a crawler course for some of my HL trucks to test them to the limit! Haha

Yes the garden is a mess, but still landscaping it and getting ready to bark and stone it out. This is part of our proving grounds for our trucks. We have already tested WPL trucks and our 8x8 on the new stuff and it tests to the extreme, but is able to overcome!

We have a steel rope bridge to come which crosses a rivine, then we can run some video tests :)

Oh dear my holiday last week ended up being a week in the garden............. normally that is not soo good, but actually meant i could go mad building RC truck/tank test area and also a full crawler course aswell
Truck course, parts are designed for tanks, most other trucks or light vehicles
