Re: Beier SM-IR-16-2 Trailer board

In case you don't get a reply from someone with specific knowledge about these parts, I can do some guesses. Note that I am making a lot of assumptions here.

From what I can tell from the manual,...

Re: Scania airport fire truck

I've spent a lot of time playing around with building a sound unit, so there hasn't been a lot of updates to the build. I never planned to use a proper sound kit, because I was never convinced they...

Re: Is there a linear DC ESC out there?

Very nice work on the crane. I don't know any linear ESCs, but I would test using an ESC with a different PWM output frequency. A higher frequency might better emulate a linear voltage.

Have you...

Re: New Tamiya - Volvo Wrecker

I love that Tamiya has taken the leap into more advanced truck models. I was shocked when I saw the announcement of this one. I've several builds of exactly this type of wrecker/ tow truck setups, so...

Sorry, I didn't see your last post until today.

Re: Scania airport fire truck

I've been looking for wheel hubs for the rear wheels, but never found a good match. Turns out the truck has reduction hubs, with planetary gearing inside, and that's why they're so big....

Re: 1970s Dodge Tradesman kustom van

I don't think I've realised how large your vans are. In my head they were much smaller, but this puts it properly in perspective. Good job on the stretch.

Re: Scania airport fire truck

The light mast and ladder both ended up a bit too wide, so I've very carefully cut out some support pieces to shrink the light mounts. I'm very happy with how the paint finish ended up on these.

My fenders weren't the same style, but the same idea should apply. I would use all 1mm styrene plates and layer them if necessary.
