Re: for the radio wizards
I bought a, I guess it's a switch decoder, off a guy in Canada. It uses one proportional channel but gives me 8 on/off's and works on Spektrum radios. Paid like $80 or $90 for it.

Re: my cabover
That sure is a sweet looking truck. I haven't seen to many semi's, but this is the first one I've seen with painted frame rails and it looks really good. Nice color choice too.

Re: Quick trip to the hobby shop
Ok, yeah he has them on his site, but as said, under Tamiya and not wheels and tires.

Re: Indy buying spree
Yeah, I've looked through the PMD site, but did not see those tires listed. Are they special order or something, or am I better off just ordering them from Germany?

Trucks from the movies
With all the trucks that have been "portrayed" on the big screen, I can't think of any RC trucks I've seen that replicate one.

Figure height for drivers?

Re: how do you lock the rear
Or you can take apart the diff, remove one of the spider gears and place it in between the other two. Might have to work it down in a tad to re-assemble. BAM! Instant free reversible locker.
