Re: Scania airport fire truck

Wow! Great info. I have a lot to think about! The pump I have is rated 6 - 12v and the solenoid valves are 3.5-24v. Both seem to be working fine with the 7.2v battery.

Re: Scania airport fire truck

Can I also ask what kind of battery setup you have and what kind of run time you get approximately? I picked up a cheap pair of 7.2V 3600mah NIMH batteries to get me through build and testing, but I...

Re: Seagrave Tanker

Thanks for the tip on the leaf springs. I’ll check that out. It’s funny you should mention rub rails tied into the frame. Seagrave has an option to tie the rear rub rails into the frame to...

Re: Seagrave Tanker

Thanks for the great input! The flex is definitely something I was thinking about. At the very least, I will isolate the cab, mid pump panel section and rear tank section into 3 separate units just...
