The truck

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.

Those wheels really improve the look.

They are a little bigger than what 1/16 should be I suspect they are 1/14 but the fill the arches nicely so I’m happy with them. I will get some 1/16 at some point though just to see

I think the wheels are correct, but you may find the body of the truck you have is not 1/16
These trucks seem to be closer to 1/18 in many cases, but every different truck is very slightly different to one another as they are all sized to fit the axle widths they have used.
The WPL B1 was very close to 1/16, but the B24 was more 1/18 and the same can be said for the Helifar, FZ, JJRC, Eachine trucks etc

The various trucks that are alleged to be 1/16 while they look okay in the company of 1/16 Armour the moment you try matching 1/16 figures with them the game is up and almost all of them are 1/18+.
