I have another build going on that pulls a small and beefy v-plow for ditching. Lots of ballast and gear reduction so looking forward to testing it out soon! |

Re: Road Grader testing
Very well done, and it seems to work great.
I'm not used to seeing the cab forward ones, are they used in a specific thing? |

As one can see the focus isn't on aesthetics or any kind of scale details. If it is durable and works like a 1:1 fairly well I am happy. There's an ebay special planetary trans up top turning (2) 2.14:1 transfer cases and also 3 lbs of lead ballast inside the Alu frame rails. The rest is Gmade R1 axles, alu links and Traxxas driveshafts. The Panhard rod running along the top of the blade is key to eliminate blade shifting. http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/w...psp8lewgjd.jpg http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/w...pspea0reaq.jpg |
