Tamiya Ford Aeromax 8x8

[egronvold]

I've wanted to build a larger rig for a long time. I really like the Aeromax and I also like the fact that it's not that common.

The truck will be a 8x8, equipped as follows:

- Der Getriebedoktor lockable front axle
- Three rear axles (first one is 100% locked, second has the diff filled with rubber bands, the third is a lockable version from Der Getriebedoktor)
- Servonaut M20+ ESC
- Servonaut AIR-4 wireless tansmitter (lights/ servofunctions on the tailer)
- Servonaut SMT sound module
- Lots of LEDs

There's still a lot left to do, but I think it will be finished by January :D

It's been awhile since my last update, so here's a little film I shot this evening:

This build is slowly coming to an end. The dolly is set up with the roadtrain- function. All electronics are from Servonaut.
