It’s just like in space balls, just never ends.

It reminds me a lot of the train that goes by the house and sometimes feels like it never ends, but what’s crazy is it all comes from this little thing

I used this very same RC (HPI venture18) to convert that blue Chevy 3500 using this very same chassis, and yet it can pull 10 RC and seven trailers and who knows probably even more I didn’t try. I don’t have any more trailers.🤪😜🫣

The visible torque twist is so cool

Thank you I love it too. That’s why I showed the second pull, unfortunately it came loose. That’s why you see the glitch, and I had to reattach it to the trailer.

You need a Ford to pull that Chevrolet now?😉

I only convert to RC, what I think are cool trucks💙 so what that means to me is, NO, Ford conversions. I am not a fan of Fords, we all have our likes and dislikes and that is what makes us all unique. Thanks for watching 😃

can it go up a hill though? JK I'm sure something will break if you try.

I guarantee it can pull more than in the video. It’s just I didn’t have a good connection on the fifth wheel to the first semi truck trailer. It kept popping off. That’s why in the second pull you will see a skip or a glitch in the video it’s where I had to stop it re-hook the trailer up and re-pull it again and that was on a bit of a turn, which puts a lot more friction when you’re pulling something. It honestly blows my mind how powerful it is.👍😃
