Re: Mack RD
Another great looking cab but I have a ? for you. Did you miss the angle at the top of the fender or is it a flaw in the pic of the real truck? Cab looks great except for this:D

Re: 1st time rc build
The King Hauler kitis just the mechanics. No electronics at all. You get the servos with your radio or buy them seperately.

Re: D11 New Project
Really starting to look like a dozer now:eek: My only concern with the tracks is that there is no allowance for dirt between the individual track links. Looks like a good place for things to bind up.

Re: 1/14 Grader Caterpillar 12F
