Re: ScaleART - Assembling a MAN TGX/XL 6x6 tractor & Trailer

Redoing the rear lights was not as big a job as I thought. Took longer to take fenders off. Came down to a simple bit of grinding and drilling two holes.

So here a trial fit after doing one...

Re: DAF torpedo front truck and front steer truck

Great job on that tipper box! Will look great "used" - Still hard to believe that cab is made of cardboard. :)

Re: My new dump trailer build

Nice trailer you build yourself! And that "error" will turn out to be a great addition. Can already see lots of advantages/possibilites of it.

Thanks for the write up and posting the pictures!

Re: Fumotec 490

Hi Calum,

Seems like the MFR is no longer produced by Servonaut ...

There is a small potentio thingy on the MFR that allows you to set the RPM of the motor. If I remember correctly you have to...

Re: DAF torpedo front truck and front steer truck

That looks like an interesting way of building model trucks!

Re: Fumotec 490

I have the Servonaut MFR on the fast setting, so takes only a very limited movement of the stick to make it go slow (and scale) enough to keep control. But there is some play in the whole...
