What hitch do y’all use?

Any creative ideas for making a trailer?

Honcho in case that matters.

Guess it depends on what you plan to do with it. Haul another vehicle, supply trailer or realistic camping type setup. The other problem is the scale. Most are listed as 1/10.

Rochobby has a 1/6 but it's a military style. Then there are some 1/8. Check the measurements.

Thanks. Yeah most trailers available for purchase are small and expensive. I’ll probably end up making my own.

Scaling up something like that first one is a great idea. Can’t believe I didn’t think of that.

I printed that second one for my 1/10 crawler a couple years ago. Really good design with functional, tunable leaf springs. Turned out great.

Guess it depends on what you plan to do with it.

It’ll be for hauling other RCs around

That’s badass brother!

I’m just starting to dip my toe in to crawling stuff (starting with the scx6 Honcho) and man all of the little scale stuff is so cool.

You’ll need one of these if you want to tow anything. All the trailer hitches out there fit the jeep and not the honcho, so I designed a solution.
