Hi, I'm Dominique from Halifax NS and I'm a tractorholic.
I have a bunch of old toy tractors at my parents place in NB, and I'd like to convert the tractors to RC.
I recently bought a MF 398 with dual wheels on Kijiji so I can tear it appart and practice. In Halifax I have limited tools, and by that I mean a drill, screw drivers and a hammer. In NB I have more tools than my skills can use.
I used to race RC cars and still have 7 car/truck models and 1 sailboat, so I'm not new to RC, but I am learning about all the new offerings especially in electronics. There's alot of good stuff out there nowadays! As my hobby fund maker I work as a systems consultant with a background in accounting. Coming out of left field when it comes to fabricating parts.
Anywho, I'll be picking everyones brain for ideas and I hope to be helpful to others as well.
