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.

Hi Will, I wish I’d sliced the roof off, it’s like watching paint dry at 0.06 layer height!!!
I’m sure it will be worth it in the endImage

The grill on the other hand is flying along & should be finished soonImage

There are ribs on the curved roof so it would have looked bad, the floor would have needed supporting anyway. I’ll cut the roof off next time
