Re: Thoughts on the RC4WD BEAST II 1/14?
No sweat Jeff. Hanging around the likes of Daryl T and Willy has taught me a lot over the years. Yea, I did the bruder conversion as well as a goldhofer. Used the Actuonix stuff to get the ramps...

Re: Thoughts on the RC4WD BEAST II 1/14?

Re: Soviet ZiS 150 cab and bed
Yup, SCX10 will be too wide. Also if you have the battery/ESC up front it wont fit over it.
Really, unless you have a flat footprint with no obstructions this cab is a toughy without cutting it up.

Re: Thoughts on the RC4WD BEAST II 1/14?
Been giving this a bit of thought Jeff, and really if your thinking you just want a transporter that may see some grass and packed dirt a tammy rig will fit the bill. Not going to be 6X6 but will...

Re: Thoughts on the RC4WD BEAST II 1/14?
150 Cab is really nice. You have to watch what chassis your putting it on though since it's highly detailed and has full interior and floor boards its tough to get it around electroinics and such. ...

Re: Thoughts on the RC4WD BEAST II 1/14?

Re: roof top emergency light bar?
Cheapo light bar isn't bad. Not top performance or quality but for a beater will work great. Plug and play into an open channel on your rx for on/off and switch between 4 sequences.
