Re: Servonaut ESCs, light moules, and sound units
Nathan I run the S20 but I don't have any lights wired up yet. I am planning to add the ML4 someday as well as the SMX. One thing to note is the silent operation. There is no ESC whine due to PWM...

Re: Fork Lift
I think Willy had modified one of those. In any case it is still a lightweight at a lift capacity of 200g. Robbe's can lift 6 times that. There aren't many options in the forklift game. :(

Re: Bruder Converter Dolly
Yes but they aren't full tires. Looking from the rear, they are hollow so the outer visible rim rides on a small band of rubber to hold the weight. The rest is for show.

Re: Need Help
I think you are stuck making that one yourself. Acrylic rod or plate perhaps. I have seen flat ones made with cd cases. The acrylic can be flame polished and painted.

Re: Frame Stretching
You can back the rail sections with aluminum bar stock. I have seen it done when splicing multiple stock rails like you have done. If I can track down some pics or links of it, I will PM it to you.

Re: My F-350 4x4 Dually
I wonder how it would look with with 1.55's but rc4wd doesn't make rims in a dually set. I'd echo that for the ride height, the tires look too tall.
