[@rcblindrichardhinds3228]

Hope that you are going to do the motor too. I found that the stock one didn't have enough torque to turn all six wheels on mine.

[@modelnutty6503]

definitely! same toy 130 motor that came in my 20 buck RTR B-1 was on the real wimp side for anything incline. the 3D printed dual geared N20 motor casing just wasn't very happy in my C24 with a pair of 12v 300 RPM units, so I picked up WPL's case with the dual geared N30 motors for it, and slapped the 3D printed unit into the B-1 with a pair of 6v 400 RPM N20's. over half the speed is gone but it'll sure crawl up hills and over stuff. still using stock Tx-Rx for B-1. stock gearbox ratio really isn't quite low enough unless you pop in a lower RPM higher torque 180 motor (can crack the sleeve it pushes into). if they redid their gearbox with about 40% higher ratio it'd been about perfect for a toy type 130 motor, no creative game playing needed. the C24 was a kit-build, powering it with a pair of 14500 (AA size) lithium ions saves some weight and not as delicate about being over discharged as a 2S LiPo (plus they're dirt cheap!).

[@AMPROEngineering]

Dont know, it is my brother in laws truck now.

[@modelnutty6503]

stock trans motor (130) is a bit wimpy, a lower RPM 180 torque motor (from/for WPL) are a lot better, especially for 6 wheels. next on the list for the B1 etc (straight frame rails!) is the motor/gearbox output sits up too high, stressing the U-joints. I used thicker aluminum flashing to make lowering plates, drop it down about 1/2" (coffee can bottom tin can work to make them too) will take the extreme angles out of the driveshafts. a little flat black paint you wouldn't notice unless you pointed at the trans lowering plates. it'll help keep U-joints from popping apart or breaking etc. haven't had any problems with the plastic gears after making and putting spacers in behind the bushings. used a 1 hole paper punch through matchbook cover, CA'd them in with the bushings then drilled through the paper card stock... meshes the plastic gears a little tighter, and the bushings being .050-.060" further apart allow less wobbling around on those short shafts. if you can easily get 3 x 6 x 2.5 mm plastic bushings to replace all 8, that'll do it too. I tried with bronze oilite type, and couldn't fit the shafts splines through them, so I stayed with plastic and greased the heck out of em. if the gears mesh TOO darn tight, just make a paper gasket for the input axle cover, it'll back the small bevel gear out a little bit. the RTR's come with the harder tires, you can soften them up a bunch by mashing the heck out of them in your hands for about 5-6 minutes each, flipping them inside out and back along the way helps. doing it also scrubs away mold release so they lose the gloss. when GearBest had the RTR B1 on sale for 20 bucks, I just couldn't resist! made a quick windshield to pop in it, some silver paint to the headlights and "winch cable", wiped out the WPL-B1 markers it had everywhere in white paint. it's the army green, and thinking about making a set of little slotted black-out headlight covers like I'd seen in so many WW2 type movies so an aircraft won't see it as easily to drop a bomb on it. left the stock Tx-Rx in it but did drop in the 3D printed dual geared N20 motor trans with a pair of 6v 400 RPM motors so it'll crawl not run.... I'd seen the stock ESC can't put out much and are prone to failing, run time is now like "forever" on stock 6v pack. easy others... a servo plug into the receiver you can get the headlight LED's re-lit, even drill into the rears for adding 3 mm red LED "tail lights". the inside "foil side" of a potato chip bag makes pretty good looking side mirror inserts.

[@AMPROEngineering]

We will see what my brother in law plans on doing. For now he likes it as is. If he does anything to the trans it is installing the 2 speed.

[@sanatkumarasharma3627]

Well, I have to write to thank you here since this was my actual baptism in the RC world, if we do not count the micro RC I bought 20 years ago and never used and I'm now restoring. So you made me going to get this cheap RTR truck that I'm now upgrading to the full, after a thorough static military modeller (again myself) paint job. Naturally in my ignorance I also bought the same receiver (but I have no transmitter!) and Esc, but ended up with a full WPL Sound System v3 all-in-one upgrade with progressive steering and throttle, diesel fx and led lights I still have to install. I upgraded to full metal gear and full metal middle axle with separate shafts front and rear, and the same universal metal transmission you also end up installing. At this moment is running an 180 that makes a huge difference to the out-of-the-box 130 motor but I going to install the 370: even so it's a really enjoyable RC. My next improvement should go to the leaf suspensions, as I'd like to check the whole metal solution. In the end this WPL model is going to cost almost as another HG P6xx or P8xx, but it also keeps me busy figuring out solutions and applying them on the workbench to finally have the satisfaction of seeing it run as it should, and gaining the experience of a dynamic modeller... Cheers

I replaced everything. It really doesn't cost that much. I got a cheap Flysky GT2B 3ch radio with a rechargeable battery. The stock radio is a piece of junk. And it doesn't support a steering servo anyway. Remember, the servo needs to be a mid size 17g. Not a micro 9g or a standard size servo (doesn't fit). A new ESC is almost for free. And don't burn the LED's. They must be wired in series on a new Rx.

No need to remove the bumper to remove cab, just undo 2 rear cab screws and slide cab rearwards and up :) Definitely get hold of a 180 motor, the RTR 130 is very weak. Best thing for these is the 2 speed trans with 370 motor, but then you'll need to upgrade driveshafts and axle gears. *Edit - looks like it's already got a 180 ;)

I’m hearing that a lot about these trucks. He’s using a new 2 (or 3) channel radio, so it can be basically anything or any brand you like. His receiver says FlySky which is a popular brand so its a FlySky radio. Here’s a basic one: www.valuehobby.com/flysky-gt2.html The electronic speed control or ESC is one of the 10 amp, 20 amp or 30 amp “cheap Chinese ESCs” which can be had for $10 or under, shipped. Those are all over ebay and everywhere else. As for the servo, I don’t know the exact dimensions but it’s a mini servo sold/branded by WPL; pretty certain it’s a “17g” servo.

Great question. The plug on the stock lights is not going to fit on the receiver. You need to change it to a 2 wire JST male plug or use a 3 wire standard receiver plug. Make note to plug it in to the + and - of the receiver and not the signal wire. You will also need to add a resister to both negative leads on the LEDs to help drop the voltage from what ever the receiver is to what the white LEDs require, usually around 3.3 v.

[@basantibarik686]

i need a Rc truck please tell me sir

What were you looking for?

[@shahrifuddin1740]

Can i know what you use the remote?

[@AMPROEngineering]

Sure, I use a Flysky GT3C

[@shahrifuddin1740]

Okey nice thank you

[@aryan42162]

are you using a 3channel receiver?

[@AMPROEngineering]

Yes but I am not using the 3rd channel on this one yet.

Where did you get the linkage arm?

[@AMPROEngineering]

All ebay.

[@aryan42162]

120 ohm resistors?

[@AMPROEngineering]

Yes, these help to prevent the LED's from getting too much power.

[@aryan42162]

+AMPRO Engineering what happens if the resistor goe to the positive line? thanks.

[@SkyHustler25]

whats is your esc 10Amp, 20Amp or 3Amp?

[@AMPROEngineering]

30A

[@gchronis]

Can you share a link of where to get the ESC from? I can’t find one where I’m getting the B16 truck from (Banggood)

[@AriefSoen]

what battery do you use?? link

[@AMPROEngineering]

Currently, the standard one. I am looking for something better though.

[@AriefSoen]

AMPRO Engineering what type n how many volt?

[@AMPROEngineering]

All I know is that it is 6V but not if it is Nimh or NiCd

[@AriefSoen]

@@AMPROEngineering what if use more than 6v like 7.4v? is it still normal?

[@AMPROEngineering]

With the standard electronics, they will burn up. With the ESC that I installed, it is capable of 2S lipo so that will work. Depends on the ratings of your electronics but again, it will fry the stock receiver/esc.

Show,,,,,,,,,

[@AMPROEngineering]

What did you want to see?

[@mcplutt]

The show must go on :-)

[@flashhobbies]

Nice video! Subbed! Check out my rc channel when you have a chance.

[@AMPROEngineering]

Thank you!

[@minut0987]

This dont tell me anything. TELL WHAT PART# by PART i need,show a list! & were to find it.go slow

[@AMPROEngineering]

Part numbers are not available on any of these parts. All the links that I got the parts are no longer viable. Are used to have them in the description but now they've all changed. Your best bet is BangGood.
