Overview
The HUINA 1550/1560/1570 Tyre Track (550mm Long) CYP1005 is an essential replacement part for owners of HUINA's popular 1/14 scale RC excavator and heavy equipment models. Whether you're an experienced RC enthusiast running competition-grade machines or a hobbyist enjoying casual weekend bashing with your RC digger, this genuine OEM track component ensures your model maintains peak performance and authentic operation. HUINA is recognised globally for producing high-quality RC construction vehicles that deliver exceptional realism and durability, and this track is engineered to the same exacting standards.
If you operate a HUINA 1550, 1560, or 1570 RC excavator, you'll understand how demanding these models are on their undercarriage components. The tracks experience constant wear during digging, pushing, and maneuvering operations on various terrains. Having genuine replacement tracks in stock means you can keep your machine in full working order and minimise downtime between sessions. This 550mm length track is the correct specification for these three compatible models, making it an absolute must-have spare part for any serious HUINA excavator operator in the UK.
At RC Model Shop, we stock genuine HUINA replacement parts to support the thriving community of RC construction vehicle enthusiasts across Britain. Whether you're running your excavator in the garden, at an RC club, or in a display collection, maintaining authentic OEM components guarantees compatibility and performance that aftermarket alternatives simply cannot match.
Key Features
- OEM Genuine Part — This is an official HUINA part (CYP1005), not a third-party copy, ensuring perfect fitment and reliable performance on your 1550, 1560, or 1570 model excavator without any compatibility concerns.
- 550mm Length Specification — Precisely engineered to the correct 550mm length required by HUINA's 1/14 scale excavator chassis, guaranteeing proper track tension and smooth operation without modification.
- Universal Compatibility — Works with three different HUINA excavator models (1550, 1560, and 1570), making this a versatile spare part for operators with multiple machines or for clubs with shared equipment.
- Durable Track Construction — HUINA tracks are manufactured from robust engineering-grade materials that withstand the demands of realistic digging operations, pushing soil, and traversing rough garden terrain without cracking or premature wear.
- Authentic Operation — Maintains the realistic tracked movement and mobility that makes HUINA excavators so engaging to operate, with smooth engagement and positive grip on various surfaces.
- Easy Installation — Replacement tracks can be fitted without requiring specialist tools or technical knowledge, making field repairs and maintenance quick and straightforward for operators.

Technical Performance
The HUINA 1550/1560/1570 track system is engineered to deliver authentic tracked vehicle performance in 1/14 scale. At 550mm in length, this component provides the correct geometry and tension for smooth, realistic movement across the HUINA excavator chassis. HUINA's track design balances durability with weight considerations, allowing the 1/14 scale models to achieve impressive manoeuvrability whilst maintaining sufficient grip for digging and material handling operations. The track materials are selected to resist dirt accumulation, moisture damage, and UV degradation—critical factors for models that spend time outdoors in UK gardens and on club grounds. Whether you're performing precision excavation manoeuvres or general play, the track maintains positive engagement with the drive sprockets, providing consistent performance session after session. Genuine OEM tracks also ensure proper weight distribution across the chassis, which is essential for maintaining the realistic centre of gravity and handling characteristics that HUINA's engineering is designed around.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which HUINA excavator models is this track compatible with? — This 550mm track is designed for use with HUINA models 1550, 1560, and 1570. Before ordering, check your excavator's model number to confirm compatibility. If you're unsure, our expert team at RC Model Shop can help verify your machine's specification.
- How often do I need to replace the tracks on my RC excavator? — Track lifespan depends on usage intensity. Light recreational operation may see tracks last many months, whilst frequent digging and heavy-duty use may require replacement every few months. Regular inspection of your tracks for cracking, missing sections, or hardening will tell you when replacement is needed. Keeping spare tracks in stock means you're never left without a working machine.
- Is this an official HUINA part or a compatible alternative? — This is a genuine OEM HUINA part, manufactured to original specifications. The part number CYP1005 is the official designation, ensuring you're getting authentic quality and perfect fitment. We recommend always using genuine OEM parts for replacement components to maintain your machine's performance and longevity.
- Can I fit this track myself, or do I need specialist help? — Most HUINA operators can replace tracks with basic hand tools in 15-30 minutes. Your excavator's manual will include step-by-step track replacement instructions. If you're unsure about any step, the team at RC Model Shop are always happy to offer guidance or support.
- How should I store spare tracks to keep them in good condition? — Store tracks in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. A sealed container or box is ideal to prevent dust accumulation and UV degradation. Avoid storing in damp garages or sheds where moisture could cause the track materials to harden or warp over time.
- Will using non-genuine tracks void my warranty? — Using third-party or counterfeit tracks can potentially affect warranty coverage. We always recommend genuine OEM parts like this CYP1005 to maintain your machine's warranty protection and ensure optimal performance.
