Finally my turn to get a really really sweet deal, thanks Lasse, your are the man! Today I went and got the following treats:
A slightly used, but very cool F103, "piaa nakajima reynard 97d" - Will be used as my silvercan runner
Underneath, something else is lurking... Something I have been wanting to get for a long time, a NIB Isuzu MU Type X:
So very very cool:
Oh, and from Poul_F I got these little gems for my TB02R's - thanks my friend!
I'm kinda wanting to stay up very very late and build the MU... It will be build and used, I promise you that

More pics my friend

Great looking hauler, Henrik :-)
I can see there is a bigger gap between the front tire and the fender of the truck in the later pictures vs the pictures in the opening post.
Did you raise the body on the chassis (by the bodymount) or did you raise the ground clearance?
Thanks!
Thank you GreatDane
I raised the bodymounts 8 mm. The rear one with 8mm standoffs for pcb, can be purchased at Brinck elektronik I simply drilled 2 new holes in the front bumper mounting plate, 8mm lower The I did not wat to raise the ground clearance as this truck need to be able to pull standard trailers and stuff.

I wuld like to see the Swedish tank called "Stridsvagn 103" (Tank 103). It's super cool, complicated due to it's height adjustable roadwheels. It uses the inclination/slope of hills combined with the adlustable suspension to adust the angle of fire. It can hide just behind a very small hill or pile of dirt, almost totally hidden. Very "cold war", made for forrest battle.

A quick update
A small update on the bumper, I have cut and trimmed some acrylic diamond plate to the upper part of the bumper. It's painted silver/aluminum with XF16. Here's a couple of pics
Hope you like it! -
How well does the black tamiya line paint you show in your pic work? still applied with a brash and steady hand?
I find it to work fine, althogh made for smaller "cracks" that om this 1:14 model, it sometimes needs a 2nd coating. And yes, brush + steady hand
I only use it for body line stuff. -
I could not resists... Had to mount it and paint some of th minor black details
So here is a quick shot of the front of the truck as it looks now:This is it for tonight, I promise

Thanks Skottoman
Here is the progress of tonight:
and, the last drops of red for this project:

I totally forgot to update this thread, shame on me! So here is a crazy picture heavy update for you to enjoy
I have constructed a seesaw type front suspension to give the front axles a bit more articulation:
Next thing I painted the whole chassis with grey automotive primer:
Gearbox and servos:
Also painted the wheels and planetary gear hubs:
Mounted with tires, wheels, hubs and rings:
More painting: (TS26 Pure White and TS39 Mica Red, used over all)
The cabin:
Adding a bit of detailing:
Constructed a new bumper:
Bars made from one of the "tree" frames, used Loctite Super Attact to glue the styreen sheet to the tamiya plastics, and UHU Plast Spezial to glue tamiya to tamiya:
A quick mount to see if things stil fit:
Primed and ready for some TS26:
Also constructing a matching "follow" car, can be seen in the background:
Hope you guys like it! I've spend a few nights so far

A small update, had some time to work some metal tonight. Made some smll brass bars to hold the servo's. Soon I'll be able to take a small drive
I have lowerd the servos using 10mm stand offs normally used for pcb.From the top:
Rear steering servo, notice the short horn (To reduce steering compared to the front wheels)
Front steering servo:
Bottom view:
Turning:
Hope you like it

That's awesome. I love your styrene work! Looks like it's coming together nicely!Cheers,
Skottoman
Thank you so much Skottoman
I still have some styrene work left, so stay tuned for more! Have to construct some side cabinets and a few other details. -
Will NOT be totally standard. I've never done box art in my life!I had a sneakin' suspicion
Looking forward to this build. I'm converting 2 x Bruder "toy" low loader's, but could use some inspiration -
Moving here??Well ,at the moment we are @ -8 degress celsius, with snow all over, and no real sign of it going away for atleast a little while.
Try to contact Bjarne from rcmodeltruck-shop, if you need help on Servonaut-products, or simply need to order some.
He´s a helpful guy, and he also has other goodies in his shop besides the Servonaut-stuff.
He just had surgery for a slipped disc a couple of days ago, but he should be able to respond to mails again.
Cheers..
Michael
Michael, NO snow in Copenhagen :'( But it's still cold.
I can also recomend rc-modeltruck shop AND servonaut. I unfortunately sold my M20+, thinking that I would add a brushless system, boy have I regredded it ever since! I'm going for a M20+ again but no SMX (Using a Beier USM-RC). It's tricky to get to work and also tricky to get the Servonaut and Berier stuff working togheter, but has more options regarding the sound, it's fully costumizable.
Have a nice build!
-
Great
Wonder what mod's you will incoporate into this one or will it be totally standard? -
I have made some new chassis rails, decided that I needed another 3-4 cm between the front axles. Here are some pictures from today
Starting get looong:
Behind:
The new rear end, bulky and square like it's real -life counterpart:
Real:
Underneath:
Servo mount bars made of brass, will add some 11mm long threaded standoff's to "lower" the servo so It will clear the motor:
Back (too much flash):
Side:
Right now I'm thinking of shortening the gearbox, since I only use 1.st gear, the other 2 are too fast, even with a 60Turn motor and small pinion installed.
Hope you all like it
