This some beautiful fabricating. Have you tried those winches out yet? Just wondering how much they can lift before they stress.

Looking forward to seeing the final pics.

Good price on that esc ,let us know how it works out for you.
Looks like the new motor for the boom should do the trick.

As far as driving the truck they work good. One also drives the rotator unit and one drives the boom. have ran them both for quite a while to test and they work great. They work up to 27t motors i believe and they handle the little motors well.

Sorry for the delay everyone. Turns out i ordered the wrong motors to make lift cylinders for the boom. The motor i need of course is back ordered until March from robot market place. The ones i have now are way to big to look scale or even good for that matter. I will post pics if anything new happens. See you all soon.
