Re: WPL C14 IT'S FINALLY HERE! I haven't seen many pictures of the kit yet so here's a really quick unboxing. The blue servo is for size comparison with the black one that came in the kit. You get the servo, the motor, and LEDs for the headlights, but rest of the electronics are up to you. First impression of overall quality is nothing to write home about, but for $30 I'm thrilled. I'll get $30 worth of enjoyment just from putting it together and detailing the body. These things are so cool. https://preview.ibb.co/j0OZRw/IMG_5284.jpg https://preview.ibb.co/eed16w/IMG_5285.jpg https://preview.ibb.co/nsXHeG/IMG_5287.jpg https://preview.ibb.co/jPOOKG/IMG_5288.jpg https://preview.ibb.co/nn8CDb/IMG_5289.jpg |

Wpl c14 Everyone is getting them around teh same time. Guess we’ll need a “build off” contest. |
Re: WPL C14 https://m.ebay.com/itm/WPL-B1-1-16-4...8AAOSwIHlaaFRI Hurry, $13.88 shipped for the kit "thumbsup", mines coming. |
Re: WPL C14 Does anyone know a source for nice 1:16 scale truck bodies? I did a little searching and it seems to be an uncommon scale for plastic model kits. There are some cars, but I didn't find trucks. |

Re: WPL C14 Teaser. Losi Mini axles and Yeti Jr. wheels/tires. Nothing at all is mounted. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a5e032ccf5.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...133d604596.jpg |
Re: WPL C14 The kit tires are nice and soft! I had to make some mini CI style foams for mine, when sidehilling they would kinda fold over. |
Re: WPL C14 just got mine yesterday and the tires are way softer compared to WPL B1 military truck. |
Re: WPL C14 Geez. These things are all over eBay for under $10 shipped now. |
Re: WPL C14 Quote:
$10 kit $4 cheapo ebay ESC (10A - 30A) $6 cheapo ebay NIMH battery $7 flysky receiver plus your existing battery charger and transmitter, pretty much equals a "bind and drive" kit with hobby-grade electronics for LESS than $30 If you start with an RTR you'd have to add the cost of a servo, but that's still stupid cheap overall. https://i.imgur.com/N3pRqJN.png |
Re: WPL C14 Quote:
I went ahead and bought....paid for one, too. Maybe it’ll show up, maybe not. It magically shipped the next day although it took GearBest weeks to ship. Getting the drive train squared away. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...24e60a3268.jpg |

Did you put the cab on the Yeti JR chassis? |
Re: WPL C14 Quote:
Haven’t tried that yet. I will later just to see. |
Re: WPL C14 Quote:
I have seen there is a very active community at rcgrpoups working on the C14 (and B1) as well. Many good ideas and thoughts over there on this little truck. I would like to see something similar on this forum. While waiting impatiently for my kit to arrive, the little voices in my head are getting crazy on what to moddify first :lmao: Looking at the steering geometry, I would like to build some sort of high steer knuckles with a positive Ackerman or at least zero Ackerman setup. Due to the low weight of the truck, even 3D-printed "Zero-Ackermann-High-Steer-Knuckles" could work fine. |
