Re: My new Knight Hauler/Freightliner
 

I have the same truck, trailer and radio (futaba 4YWD) with the stock servos and mine runs fine, even with a small kid sitting on the trailer. The only time I have ever had a problem with mine shutting off (apart from a flat battery) is with the tamiya/molex plug, replace your battery connections with Deans, Powerpole, Traxxas or whatever your desired plug is, the tamiya ones lose contact easily and are only rated for 7.5 amps. Even if you think the plug is good it can lose contact inside. Mine were not allowing enough current for the MFC01 and kept switching it off.

Hi everyone I'm back again to give you all updates. Now the update is I had plans of changing my knight hauler in to a freightliner but that's not going to happen as I fixed the problem of it shutting itself down. The truck has been now sold as a person offered to buy it from me so I sold it to them.

As much I didn't like the new freightliner that has just been released from tamiya I have desided to go and buy one. I looked at them long enough and it is slowly growing on me a little. All I have to do is make a few little changes and I'll start liking it more and more. I have to wait for a couple of weeks for it to get to me though so there won't be any starting photos just yet. I wishing it would hurry up though of getting delivered because I'm really starting to get bored looking at the idiot box (TV).

So that's the updates at the moment I will be posting the progress photos in this thread saves starting a new one.

Hi everyone I'm back again it has been awhile since I have posted on here in this thread. I received my freightliner just after my last post in 2014 and still have it. I have updated my trailers for it and it was just last year I have only started painting everything. The painting is not finished yet and there are a few more changes to make as I'm just taking my time with everything.

I will have photos for you soon from the start of the build to the end. But as I have always been told is that nothing never ends as you are always changing something.

Always nice to build a new truck. :)
Am interested to know what was wrong with your Knight Hauler before you sold it.

Re: My new Knight Hauler/Freightliner
 

It was shutting down it 3rd gear and full throttle in 2nd it was like the battery was flat because it would start up again. The problem was the battery had a drop cell in it so went and got battery fixed and brought a new one at the same time then it was all fixed before I sold it.

The reason I sold it because a guy offered to buy it from me and I gave in and sold it to buy a freightliner.

Body, side skirts and other bits fitted.
