Sweet vid!! I agree with big john love the new fenders!!

[hippy]

thank you both.

[SWAGGER]

Beep Beep digi trim!

Yeah the video is great, nice test run. She looks well out in the sun! Those fenders and head lights really make this a unique build.

[hippy]

thank you. ya got to love the singing radios! lol. dx7s, now to see if i can hook up the mfu or do i go servonaught way?

[SWAGGER]

Well hippy I thought you couldn't use an MFU with digi trims until recently. Seems quite a few people have done it. If your radio is programmable you can have a trim give you full left or full right with the throw of a switch. Pretty sure guys have used DX7's, Spectrum seem to be very popular at the moment. You should be fine either way. I think the Servonaut solution is a but more expensive, but from all of the youtube vids I have watched, I deffo prefer the sounds from the Servonout sound module, more realistic. Love the turbo whistle.

the servonaut unit works really well with dx8, havent had any problems

[hippy]

sweet thanks guys.

[dabears]

My MFU works great with a DX5E the 7 i havnt heard anything bad about. its just harder to set up initially. i myself prefer the sound of the MFU vs the servonaut. i guess its more of what your prefrence is in overall function or sound

[hippy]

sweet, thank you. i will order up the mfu then.

[hippy]

well still haven't found my hinges yet. so guess i got to go buy some more, ( this is when i will find the set i lost here. Murphy's law.).

I like your ideas.......it keeps getting better with every update.
Keep it up!

[hippy]

Thank you, I got a couple more thoughts in my head for it. Hoping I can do them soon. Got to finish the fenders first though. Thanks again for looking.

I agree with Troy, this ride gets better with every update, and I really love your ideas for this project. Everything ties in well together. Can't wait to see more...and I love the skull, if you go to my thread "SLUMLORD", you'll see why.

Led's in the eye sockets? Connected to the brake lights?........Hmmmmmmm (rubs chin mischievously!) Heheheeeeee

[hippy]

Thank you guys. Still trying to figure out what mural I am going to do. Was thinking a pumpkin patch down the frame cover.

Thank you for looking.

Big John, dude slumlord is a fricken beautiful truck! Awesome art!
I did my tailgat 5 years ago on my 01 dodge ram. I will look to see if I have a pic somewhere on the net here and post it.

Thanks again all!
