dump truck has hydraulics !!!!! waiting on the esc's to power everything
the esc for the pump will be the second esc, do I remove the red servo wire
and leave the motor esc alone?? never delt with two esc's for one truck

Re: bigfords trucks
 
If both are being used on the same RX then one of them needs to have the red wire pulled. I would recommend using whatever ESC has the better BEC to power the RX and servo and pull the wire on the other one.

both are viper marine 15

Re: bigfords trucks
 
Then if they are the same just take a red wire out of one of them then. Doesn't really matter which one.

Re: bigfords trucks
 
ok so both esc are in! Now can I buy a y-harness with two Tamiya female ends
and one male end to join both esc to one battery??

Re: bigfords trucks
 
Yes you can. But depending on how much current is being pulled I would suggest ditching the Tamiya connector for a better quality.

Re: bigfords trucks
 
That looks great so far :cool:
Is it going to have a drop axle like the 1:1 or are you mostly after the paint scheme?
I think she will need a set of Steves killer pete ovals for wheels. :);)

Ok. Just watched the vids. I love the actual working hyd versus the screw drive set ups. And that answers my drop axle question.... Got no more room for more gizmos right? Lol

Re: bigfords trucks
 
the hydro tank could be located under the pass door and the ums pump
could go somewhere else to fit a drop axle. for now the passenger tank
holds the oil and the driver tank has the pump
