Hello, I am trying to upgrade the D14 to handle uneven terrain with minimal modifications to stock chassis. This is going to be a multi phase plan and would like to focus on swapping axles ( need to figure out how to attatch power transfer to connect to driveshaft) and upgrade suspension geometry to four link in first phase. I am aware of limited aftermarket support for d14 and was hoping to get more info on part compatibility (preferably wpl parts). I am in process of designing and exoframe/riser that will have mounting points for said upgrades and future modifications.

Hi all, this is my C74 in its current state. All original except its been painted matte green, WPL wide arches, custom side skirts / rock sliders, front diff guard (both made from a Pepsi tin) and a larger exhaust (made from a broken fly swat handle)

I have just ordered the metal axle kit along with the metal steering servo. Eventually, I will want the 2 speed gear box as this is more of a trail build, with occasional rock climbing / more challenging trails when they come up!

Chopped it into a truggy, removable magnetic hood, relocated battery. More to come

Within an hour of getting my D14, I wrecked it hard into a curb and hit just right to break some suspension parts. Well the only parts I could find were for a D12, so off to the mod shop it went!

Welp, i guess she's done now. Took me a month to get it to how it looks and performs now. Very scale capability too as i test drove it around. Everything is changed from the motor, receiver, esc, metal drivetrain, etc. It was a fun learning experience with this Chassis/model!

New WPL C104 UAZ-452 – first trail run
Got my hands on the new WPL C104 and took it straight out on the trails.
Really impressed with the UAZ-452 body and all the scale details, but I was especially curious to see how that big, top-heavy bread loaf would actually perform on the rocks. Surprisingly capable!
I go through the truck, lights, suspension and a few of the new details before giving it a proper trail run.

What do you guys think of the C104? 🍞

Just wanted to share my current custom scale build. Building it for a friend and its about 85% done. Its been a great learning exp. especially this is the first time ive worked on this chassis/model and also with the parts being a bit hard to get from where im from. All in all to my eyes its looking great.

No matter what wheels I put on there the gap is the same. The wheels have the same diameter as the stock ones. The front is perfectly fine but my rear suspenion almost bottoms out. I still have minimal travel but it’s way lower than the pictutes I found online. Is this leaf spring fatigue? Any Idea on how to fix it? If I tighten the screws on the rear it only stays squatted and wont lift up.

The WPL C84-1S might just be the best ready-to-run (RTR) vehicle WPL has released so far.

In this video I take a close look at everything that's included, go through the features, and then head outside to see how it performs. it's time to find out if the C84-1S lives up to the hype.

What do you think? Is this WPL's best RTR yet?
