Newray forklift "project deadlift"
I just picked up a used newray forklift from 1985kenworth (thanks Dwayne!), altho it worked the non proportonal controls and lack of power sucks!
I decided to keep on my transformers theme and made up a new decepticon character named "deadlift" I have stripped out the stock steering and radio components and upgraded them . I plan on doing a repaint I added: venom micro servo for steering losi MRC esc to run the main drive motor spektrum AR500 receiver and DX6i radio control board out of a traxxas servo to control the lift motor. I removed the stock steering rack and replaced it with a new one made of brass. the rest of the mods were basically just making the other parts fit, I had to decase the esc to make it fit. as for paint, I plan on painting the rims and drivers cage decepticon purple and the main body a green colour ( like the G1 constructicons). further plans are to add running lights and a backup beeper. Ill post up some pics tonight. |
