Small update on the dump truck. Finally got a chance to try a few ideas with how to arrange everything inside.











I'm just wondering if having the receiver close to the speaker magnet is going to be an issue?? otherwise, so far so good. Next is a mount for the servonaut sound board.

thanks for looking and all comments.

Mario

Kinda reminds me of my S10 pickup...except there the subwoofers point into the cab from the box, not into the box from the cab. My guess is that it will sound a lot different with the box up or down but it should work!

Finally! After over 2 months of construction Chaos in the basement I got my work space back up and running! S&M trucking is finally open for business once again
Today the dump truck rolled around for the first time! Lots left to do but happy to see it moving!
Next is lights, sound , paint then summer action!

Thanks Dwayne. I know what you mean but some of those job sites really push for production and ya have to save time anywhere you can!

Thanks big john. The blue is still the original colour from when I bought the truck. Once everything else is done I'm thinking black with some silver accents of vice versa.


So the truck is really coming to life now! It's been a great weekend of RC work ( about time as Reg said )

My first non MFU type sound unit. I first purchased way back when with plans to install in my loader but after getting tired of trying to make it fit I think it works fine in the truck. I like the fact that I can rev the engine while raising the box.

Check it out!
