That turned pretty good roadie.

How much weight could your neck lift off the floor?

Hi, thanks for the comments ...yes there is a thread for the build here's the link ...

http://www.rctruckandconstruction.co...?t=3407&page=2

the neck will lift at least 10kg as ive tried that and it did it with ease, it has a 20kg servo running a screwdrive so should lift quite a bit

cheers roadie1960

Love the truck and really like the automatic disconnecting goose neck that throws it over the top.
