Re: CAT 374D L
Wow, that's cool, but it sounds like it has some gear mesh problems at times.

Re: Electronics questions
Your ESCs would plug into the receiver, however they will not be drawing their power from (or through) the receiver. They will get their voltage from the main battery pack you choose to run the...

Castle makes great BECs. I've used them for years and have no complaints. Their 10 amp BEC (switching regulator) is what I'd suggest purchasing, if you need it. If you are planning on running all...

Re: Electronics questions
Baker3, I think independent dual motor ESCs are generally not cheap. You could also run two separate single motor ESCs as well. A radio transmitter with dual sticks would be ideal for running a...

Reg, did you machine your die out of aluminum or steel? That's a great way to go, when you want to make duplicate parts. I did the same for my fuel tank straps, after I made 4 by hand and they all...

Nice work Stu. Are the lifting arms pinned to the shaft, or just secured with set screws? How much power does your lifting servo have? The parts are looking good!

That's unfortunate about the paint. You're not the only one who hasn't laid any paint down on a truck! Paint is overrated! :D Then again, maybe finishing a truck is too.....:p
