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.

For canopies/tilt, has anybody thought about papier mache or, tissue and dope. Both can be worked to give a realistic shape with folds etc. whilst still giving it a rigidity.
