Scale hitch receiver

I have found that dinky RC make a 3d printed scale hitch. On backorder though. So my thoughts are to build my own scale hitch assembly... already got a RC rock armor drop hitch. 1/4" square. My idea is to use plastruct square abs tubing build of that with abs or styrene. Question is, would it be strong enough to pull/support a truck on a trailer.

Here's a link to the hitch. It won't let me upload a picture

Re: Scale hitch receiver

I have one of the dinky rc receiver hitches my opinion is that they are just for looks I wouldn't recommend trying to tow anything with it

I've looked at those. I want something that actually looks like a 1:1 hitch.. I know I'm being very picky
