Going Green

[ricm]

got a bit more done...chassis almost finished apart from finalising the location of the Rx and MFU, and tidying up all the wiring.



built a shelf above the battery compartment for the diff lock servo and somewhere to put the transmitter board for the wireless trailer stuff. Diff lock servo operated by 3 position switch... 1) both diffs unlocked, 2) front diff only locked or 3) both diffs locked. Added a micro switch working off the diff lock servo horn which turns on a 3mm red LED mounted in a spare hole in the coupler servo plate, the LED comes on if the servo is in any position other than 'both diffs unlocked'.







standard cab apart from beacons and twin headlights. one pair of headlights plugged into MFU as standard, the other will be on another channel for 'high beam' which can be switched on/ off or flashed independently from any of the MFU light functions. Yet to make the lenses for the headlights but I plan to cut up some standard king hauler head light lenses to fit as these look much better than using the trailer reverse light lenses. This photo is also a better representation of the real colour!
