mining truck and dozer conversion. first atempt.

It would be possible but due the failure of one of the controllers for the servos they will both be wired to one standard servo controller as such they will only work at the same time.

I have got the blade operating, i am a little disapointed with the power of the servos though. They are very small but were advertised as having about 2/3 of the power of a standard servo which can't be right as they lift the blade with no problems but when the blade is dropped they can't lift the front of the dozer of the floor which 1 standard servo does with no problem.

It's not an issue though as this model will never be doing any sort of hard work.

well i've been quiet for a while but i have been beavering away on the dozer. i originally had a tamiya 70097 twin gear box fitted but i stripped the gears pretty quick so ive fitted a tamiya 70168 and hopefully that will be better.

I've also purchased a sabertooth 2x12rc controller which seems like a good bit of kit.

I'm having a few technical issues i'll put a post in the tech section so if anyone who knows what they are doing could have a look that would be great.
