The video embed link is a bit of a mystery. The YouTube clip is titled "116 WPL Transmission". We can't quite make out what the model looks like, but it's based on the WPL transmission system and has been scaled down to 1:14. We managed to find the 3D model from a GTA SA mod in ZModeler and SketchUp. The body has been broken into parts since we only have a small bed printer, so they were printed separately using ABS plastic. We used an ABS juice to glue them together. One thing that's particularly nice about this build is the windows, which can be made from transparent blister packages. Here are some of the specific parts we used: * WPL axles with metal gears or metal gears for WPL axles - both options work fine * WPL tyres * Gearbox * Driveshafts - either the 2PCS Upgrade Metal Driving Shaft For WPL HengLong RC Car Parts Crawlers Military Truck or this version * 20A ESC * MG90 servo * Shocks - we used some from WLtoys A202, but you can also use WPL shocks * RC receiver & transmitter - we're using Flysky FS-GT3B with the receiver, but DumboRC X6 is an option too We're powering this model with a 2s battery and have added some M2, M3 screws, nuts.
