Sd Kfz 223 conversion

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.

Hi.
Fantastic build i can see the 1/16 military vehice market exploding here...if the makers of the wpl trucks take note and i am sure they will then they should start producing all these vehicles that we as modellers keep adapting the standard wpl chassis into.

Folks, this build and thread is complete now, Mr Midnight has sadly passed away leaving but a few insights to his model making ability for us to reflect upon.
RIP Bill

A remarkable modeling effort killed by tires that seem to me very distant from the real vehicle

As for the panzer, the tracks are the foundation on which everything is based, the same goes for a vehicle with wheels.

My Play Dirty truck gets by OK, but it would have been nice to have narrower wheels and tyres.
