MPE, I would be delighted to talk a bit electronics :)
In the meantime, I think you need to work on your CAD model...

Re: Liebherr R954C
May I ask why you are going for an axial piston motor and not radial?
Axial machines typically have considerably higher RPMs than radial ones for a given power and hence lower torque on the shaft...

That's going to look ace!
Can't wait to see the first shots in the dirt that look like the full-size machine!

Looking forward to your progress!

Re: Pistenbully 600 w/ passenger cab 1:10
Looks great!
Sorry to hear about the motor problem.
I guess the screws are too long and reach into the gearbox?
I would hope that if you use a shorter screw, it would work and didn't do too much...

I think that converted servos are really useful and they are basically nothing else than gear motors in a different form factor and packaging anyway?
As long as their gear ratio matches the...

Re: Bruder Liebherr loader build
Heavy duty Bruderism, great!
Is the screw drive an adapted hand-drill? One of those that you push with your hand - sometimes called Archimedean Drill? I think they might be much smoother than drill...

Re: Volvo G990 Grader
Bending those thick plates so precisely is no small feat, especially considering that the notches and fingers still line up perfectly! Wow!

Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
Hi Footprint!
Hm...
But we do not need xbee range. Beyond 10m, it gets really hard to grade, beyond 30m, it gets really hard to even steer. (1m is roughly one yard.)
Here's what I currently...

But I plan to switch to my own arduino-based transmitter with more functionality.

Re: Volvo G990 Grader
Hi Stefan!
The float position is rather nice to have, I found.
I solved this mechanically, which won't help you - but the experience of the float position has convinced me that it is worth some...

Re: dodge L 1000
Great build!
I think the long trailer looks better - but you could do a short trailer with only one axle and then the proportions would also be very good, I think.

The skysport 4 is a four-channel radio - enough for your truck and transmission, but this means that channels 5 and 6 on your receiver will be empty.
