Default Re: Cat 777D Mining Truck

Pugs-thanks it worked out good I felt. Steve-the micro servos don't have much torque in my experience with them. I felt I needed good power to turn the wheels with the truck loaded. The servo I used has 110 in. oz. of torque @ 6V. That may be overkill but better over powered than under powered I think. Espeefan-thanks for the comments but I don't agree with you on the hi-tec servos. They are very short lived in my opinion. I believe in Airtronics, but everyone has their own opinion. I ran Airtronics in my race boats for 10+ years and never had a problem with servos, recs. or transmitters and boats are killers on radio equipment.
