CorbettTrailers is on a distinguished road
Default Project Mercedes Benz W/Cherry Picker

I thought at first I was striking a ultimate deal on EvilBay. A PMD Mercedes Benz with a Rear Bumper Motorized Crane. Well I finally got it today and what a Project. I'm not sure if the circut boards are shorting out or its my radio. I'm thinking a nice 8 or 10 channel 2.4 Radio is in order. I got the battery to work but it's not holding a charge. So then I got it to steer and go forward and reverse. Then shifting worked great then all heck broke loose. Seems the channel to shift was making the truck go in forward and reverse at the same time the right stick was making it go forward and reverse. This truck has the PMD MFU and full light kit. I'm not sure yet what it will be in the near future. With the trailers I have planned I will prolly just ad a fifth wheel and run it like that. If I can figure out how to take the mechanicals apart withput completely baffling myself . Any comments or ideas are welcome. Just letting everyone know what I'm working on. Thanks for looking, John.
