777 HAUL TRUCK (1/12 size)

[9W Monighan]

That truck would fit right with our RC strip mining operations. Too bad you live so far away.

What would it's load capability be if scaled up to life size, just curious ?
great work cannot wait to see it in paint finished and then used in anger.

Thanks for posting.

Thanks.....a 777 truck is rated for 100 tons, so if I did the math right the scale load would be around 127 lbs.....(220,000lbs / 12 /12 /12 = 127.3lbs)

Amazing work! What was the weight on your first load their?

LOL....I though I was going to hit it too...LOL...glad I didn't hit it or the garage door....would have wiped out the side deck and railing...might have ripped a tire off the ATV

The load on the truck was about 110 lbs.....

Wow, Just awesome. That truck truly is a beast.

How did the suspension handle the load. Was it bottomed out, or is there still some travel remaining. What about the drive motor, Do you think it will be able to handle much of a grade. I am sure Joe would love to know if it could make it up his basement ramps to the window outside.
