Smile Gator jumping in

Finally got a chance to get into the semi truck/trailer aspect of the hobby. I've been doing the airplane, on-road, off-road, bashing, monster truck scene for about 20 years. Getting too old to hang with the younger bunch, so Grand-paw slowed down to the semi-cruise scene.

Welcome aboard Gator.

I've never done any other rc, always been a trk & constr nut... the pace has always been just right for my liking.

I welcome any help at all in that area of construction machines. I am amazed by and interested in the dozers and backhoe diggers but haven't got the hang of the hydraulics.

Hydraulics are pretty simple, might be a little tricky for a newcomer installing for a 1st time, getting your servos/valves centered correctly, depending on the system/manufacture you're using.

Hydraulics are pricy, but the smooth performance & power is worth it in the long run.
