Hello from Michigan

[Lil Giants]

I guess that would be me you're referring to

With today's sophisticated 2.4gHz computer radios (my brand of choice is Spektrum) I could run up to 30 models on one radio and yes they could be all on at once, but only one operational at a time, the others would just sit there & do nothing - not even a glitch.

The dozen or so different models are split up into 4 different radios,DX6, DX7, DX8 & DX18. Mainly so, when a radio runs out of charge, park that model associated with it & use a different trk or constr equip with a different radio to work at something else.

Thanx for your interest and welcome to the forum.

You have my curiosity, what farm toy forum is it you came from?

Yes...piratefarmtoys they are on a proboards forum. But since coming here, I have been watching youtube videos from other people other than yours. I also introduced what you are doing to a friend of mine. I think both of us are hooked, just have to find time to make it all happen.

He and I have been scouring the web for ideas of how to build motors and gears to do something different with the farm equipment. The video on youtube that has an operational manure tanker is really of interest to both of us.

So thanks to you for initiating interest in radio controlled models to a couple of newbies.

By the way, thanks for the welcome. I am sure I will have more questions as we go along...I see that I have much reading to catch up and some research before I take the inevitable plunge. I have been thinking of a construction crew that would build buildings...that might take some tinkering and thinking.
