Default Re: Bruder D5 1 day build

thanx guys
i just built a 2nd d5,but this time i used the 2x12 sabertooth.....it just fits under the interior.its the first time ive used a sabertooth,i like it .....but ive gotten used to the old heng long.but the sabertooth is a true variable throttle,the HL unit it more like a 12 step speed control,but i will say the HL has a easier to control low speed over the sabertooth.and steering in reverse is backwards on the saber aswell.ill see if thats something that i can change.im happy with both though,id guess the real benifit of going the sabertooth route is the ability to add servos and assign switches,and wide variety of transmitters out there.the advantage of the HL budget and getting the job done.i almost prefer the HL setup.....hard call though.
