Default Re: KOMATSU Excavator from Malaysia

When you do the 960E truck, the drive line can be very prototypical - a traction motor in each rear wheel assembly and electrically driven! That will be one large toy. What do you have in mind for getting tires? I've looked at doing a Komatsu HD785 truck (100 ton) in 1/14 scale, but have not found any tires that are close to diameter/width combination. Anyway, enjoying the excavator build and looking forward to the truck.
