This WPL B36 URAL-4320 (Урал-4320 in Russian) military truck is a cheap 1/16 scale kit. During the last couple of days I have assembled it and it was a lot of fun.
All in all it is very detailed, even the drive train and the suspension with 3 solid axles and leaf spring suspension is very similar with the original.
The off road capabilities are insane, even in stock condition. Of course it is controlled by my „Micro RC“ Arduino 2.4 GHz DIY remote.

In this video: outdoor crawling test. A build video and an upgrade video will follow, so stay tuned!

Features:
- 3 solid axles with leaf spring suspension
- tandem axle with leaf springs and 6 additional linkages, just like the original
- 6 wheel drive with prop shafts
- Metal frame with plastic cross members
- realistic, yellowish LED headlights
- proportional steering with servo (included in the kit version)
- proportional throttle
- 180 size motor with carbon brushes and a lot of torque (included in the kit version)
- very detailed body, drivers cab and command container
- transmitter and receiver are not included, I have used my on system (see below). You can also use every other standard 2.4GHz system.
- 10A brushed ESC (not included, link below)
