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.

How to break JJRC axles. Drive 3s power through my dual 180 motor setup. Can you imagine what my dual 370s would do haha.
Anyway WPL metal axles on order and will be fitted to help transmit power and aid off roading. I know the dual 180s are sllllooooooooowwwww, but in love the crawling ability.

Gonna have to call this one a FAIL!! I suppose some energetic bloke could narrow the axles, but it won't be me. I'll just save them for when I build the Diamond T cargo truck, probably after the tanker.

The tyres look really good Gary, there's no limit to the builds now that you can print the appropriate tyres, your printed crates look great also :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

Been looking at the JJRC Q64 since it came out and have finally ordered it off Amazon, it's the cheapest I've ever seen it - £17.40 + £5 Delivery https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07MT8LXHW/

Once it arrives, (and as long as it's what it says it is!) I'll be attempting to create the MAN HX58 6x6 Unit Support Tanker(UST) to go with my Challenger 2...

Will look at potential upgrades as and when necessary. :haha:
