I'm still blown away by the scale details of this kit. Did this brand just come out of nowhere or do they also make other vehicles?

Where'd you end up putting your battery, Rx, and ESC?

Hi guys,


Nice builds
Here are some pics of mine:



Replaced the cargo bed by oak strips since I did not like the plastic bed and added some detail by printing this kit:

Love these old round fendered trucks, the blue with black fenders was very nice, Gulf colors are good too. Would be nice to see an option 4x4 front axle to fit too.

i agree... maybe cross rc front axles would fit? seeing as they are both 1:12...
these are crazy detailed! tons of 1:12 accessories available too. ahhh another thing on my "someday" build list.

Mine's coming along nicely too! Lovin' all these CA-10s, everyone's ends up a different sort of beaten and battered. Hehe.

Nah. You want 1/14 semi truck axles. These are actually closer to 1/14 scale(I found this out the hard way when I bought 6" scale Duke Nukem and Gordon Freeman figures to drive mine only for neither of them to be even close to fitting, which they would have slid right in if the truck was truly 1/12) and the rear axle, wheel, tire dimensions are all pretty much directly ripped from a Tamiya semi. In fact that's where you look for tires and wheels on these.

I put a LESU drive axle in mine(Mostly 'cause I stripped two ring gears doing donuts with Castle brushless power in the front ), but if you were looking for an AWD conversion, you'd go with LESU axles front and rear(Ring/pinion ratios are slightly different stock and LESU). Can also get cable lockers this way.

Looks to be the perfect platform to use if I want to do a scale-ish build with my Tonka Winnebago.

I bought one, and I am not happy with it, the screw holes for the rims were not taped deep enough, so I had to go buy shorter bolts, and the rims are not the other holes not taped thru either, so I stopped building it,
