Default Re: New Year--New project

Finally....
I've been waiting on a new servo, and some #7.5 lead shot for weight.
I replaced the servo that was causing my beacon to randomly come on and the new servo does it too... I'm thinking either I get a BEC or just leave the beacon on. it doesn't change modes or shut off.... so for now I'll leave it if it really bugs me I'll tear it apart and put a BEC in it...
I wanted to get some weight in it so I got 4lbs of #7.5 lead shot for in the drive wheels and "fake" idlers on each side

Just need to mix up some of this and pour it in...



It went easier and neater than I thought added 13oz...


That was the last thing I really wanted to do before I button this up everything works like I wanted so this one is ready for the construction site as soon as it warms up a little.



Here is a shot of the winch, I think it scales pretty good on the back of this little D5


I even got my brass blade edge on

I added weight inside too, all together it weights just under 3lbs, I hope that's enough I guess I could stick some weight on the bottom if I have to but I wanted to leave that clean for now...
So that's it for this one now I need a way to get my dozer and Deltea loader to the job site..
