Other option is aluminium, if that is too hand...
The other question is, assuming you are looking for more strength... What will break instead of the hinges once they are metal?
Just something...

Re: Spektrum DX10 system fault
I would suggest upgrading the firmware on the 10t if you haven't already.
Note: you should backup you models to the SD card before doing so. You may also need to re-bind the models.
Cheers,
AP

Re: 4 Axle Low loader
To be clear my Carson trailer is the drop deck and not the Goldie... I bought Carson trailer a couple of years before that was released.

It will be interesting to see one in the dirt... but even if we did today, this is a prototype and lots can change... Looking forward to seeing a production model in the dirt.

Re: Scalearts new Tracked dumper and track loader
I wonder how much the 4in1 bucket costs... It would be interesting to see how one fits on other loaders like the Liebherr 576, CAT 966, etc...
It would give the loaders more bite, that's for sure!...

Re: MAN 26.320 and MAN 33.385
So the centre differential in the transfer case, between the gearbox and the driven axles can reverse the drive direction?
Interesting fault that one...
Do you have a link to where it is...

Yep they do... Try 2 carbon fibre blades, 550mm long, spinning at 2600rpm... That's what some of the Helis run at... Not pretty when things go wrong.

Re: Armageddon VS ScaleArt truck!
Marketing version:
1:16
Actual:
1:14.5
Also I am not sure how close Tamiya is to 1:14 as it might be closer to 1:13...
Either way Tamiya is bigger than the models from Scale art or Wedico.

Re: Armageddon VS ScaleArt truck!
Most of the German stuff is 1:16, including Wedico and Scale Art.
Not too much smaller, but it is noticeable. The construction gear gets away with it most of the time because the machines are...
