The WPL C24 Brushed 4WD RTR 1/16 Truck Crawler is a highly detailed small scale trail truck that feels like a mini Toyota style pickup on a capable crawler chassis. A brushed 180 motor, low gearing and full time 4WD give it enough torque to climb over rocks, roots and obstacles at realistic crawling speeds rather than racing around. Proportional steering and throttle on the 2.4GHz radio let you place the truck accurately, ease onto obstacles and control wheelspin, which makes it fun for both new drivers and hobbyists who enjoy technical driving.
Power comes from a 7.4V 500mAh Li-ion pack that delivers roughly 25 to 30 minutes of use on typical trails, with a charge time of about 180 minutes using the included charger. The C24 runs at around 15 to 20km/h flat out, but its real strength is slow, controlled crawling where the soft tyres, locked axles and suspension travel let it pick its way over uneven ground. At 1/16 scale, with a length of about 31cm and weight around 1300g, it is easy to carry in a backpack and run almost anywhere, from garden rockeries and office obstacles to proper outdoor crawler courses.
The hard plastic pickup body gives the WPL C24 a classic scale look and can be detailed further with paint, weathering and accessories if you want to personalise it. Underneath, the ladder frame chassis, 4WD drivetrain and separate electronics make it a genuine hobby grade platform with a long list of upgrade parts available, including metal axles and links, oil shocks, stronger steering servos and even brushless conversions. Out of the box you get the assembled truck, 2.4GHz transmitter, drive battery, charger and manual, so you only need to add AA batteries for the transmitter and you are ready to hit the trail.
Typical uses
- Backyard and garden crawling over rocks, roots and landscaping features

WPL C24 Brushed 4WD RTR 1/16 Truck Crawler FAQ
Yes, the WPL C24 can be used both indoors and outdoors. Indoors it works well on smooth floors and over small obstacles like books and ramps. Outdoors it is happiest on garden rockeries, short grass, compacted dirt, gravel and crawler courses. It is not waterproof, so avoid puddles, wet grass and mud, and try not to submerge the axles or electronics.
Yes, the C24 has proportional steering and proportional throttle. That means small movements on the trigger or steering wheel give small changes in speed or steering angle, and larger movements give more response. This makes it much easier to place the truck accurately, ease onto obstacles and drive slowly and smoothly compared to simple toy grade on or off control.
On the supplied 7.4V 500mAh Li-ion battery you can usually expect around 25 to 30 minutes of mixed crawling and trail driving. A full charge with the included charger takes about 3 hours. Many drivers keep a second or third pack so they can rotate batteries and get longer sessions without waiting for a charge.
The C24 is designed as a small crawler and trail truck. It handles rocks, roots, small logs, garden borders, gravel paths and short grass very well, especially at slow speed where the soft tyres and 4WD drivetrain can find grip. Very deep sand, long grass or large sharp rocks can stop or damage it, so those are better avoided or approached with care.
Yes, there is a large upgrade path for the C24. Common upgrades include metal axles and links for strength, oil filled shocks, better tyres, stronger steering servos and improved electronics. Many owners also customise the hard body with paint, weathering, roll bars, bumpers and scale accessories to create a unique trail truck while keeping the base C24 chassis underneath. Stock of upgrade parts is supplier dependent.
