HH Mercedes Arocs 4x4 Scale Semi Build

[Arctic Cat ZRT]

Always wanted a RC semi. Unfortunately A Tamiya semi was not in the budget. Ended up going with a Hercules Hobby Arocs 4x2. By the time I’m done with it will be a 4x4 model. Got the chassis rails together and ready for the suspension and axles. It’s not the same quality of a Tamiya and needs some adjustments but for the price it’s a pretty good value! I added in a picture of a real life Arocs 4x4 that I’m using as inspiration. This truck won’t be a shelf queen or pavement princess, it will be taken out on light trail runs too!











Thanks to the experience of OSRC I have made some adjustments already during my build. I found that opening up the holes in which the self tapping hardware goes into the plastic makes installation much easier. It also has the added bonus of not stripping or breaking anything!

Happy to blaze the trail of tears...

Love the lifted look, can't wait to see it finished!
