Wedico???

[Lil Giants]

I feel your pain Lynn. Essentially I built my Junk 740 & 966 3 times over during initial assembly because the instructions & fitment sequence of parts are so poor! And then when it came to making repairs... $%^&*())(*&^%#@##@@$%^&*(*(()!!!!! You gotta take it apart in the same sequence again to get to the failed part in the chain.

You guys were talking about switching out the king pins to make the trailers more of a universal fit. My ?? for you is: what does a Wedico king pin look like? The king pin that came with my trailer is a joke!! It would not fit in any fifth wheel plate that I know of Besides that the fifth wheel plate keeps breaking every time I get it fixed, it lasts about 3 trips and the spring come unhooked again Would not be too bad but the fifth wheel plate is buried in the deck plate making it a pain to remove to fix. Going to make some changes to both the fifth wheel plate and the rear deck for easier to repair in the future.

I'm really surprised that both company heads don't want their trucks to be modified. Well, Mr. Wedico I can see, but Mr. Tamiya?! Tamiya trucks are so easy to modify, it's impossible not to!

Sorry to hear about your troubles Lynn, nobody wants to pay almost $4000 for an RC that isn't absolutely perfect. Hopefully Nate can help you out, I know he could machine every piece of that truck for you!

i'm with you, most tamiya stuff is way to easy to mod. but it make since, if you look at there esc's and electronics, they tend to only work on the sivler can 540 motor, anything much more burn them out. you see that all through tamiya's r/c line up from there truck down to there r/c cars.

also this is a timely thread. i was thinking of getting a wedico from a guy at my lhs but after following this thread i think i'd stay away. the one thing that will turn off any model company for me is being hard to work on and not being able to just turn on and drive, i hate having to work on the model before and after a drive or playtime.
