The 6X6 is a project that's been on the back burner for years.

The tracked equipment is toy grade Hobby Engine stuff and entry level working hydraulic r/c.

I build scale model airplanes so I needed something to move them about when on pavement. Well, what about converting a rock crawler into an Airport Tug? A few cuts to the crawler rails and framing up the shell. Used the rear tire holder to fashion the tow bar connector to the Tug. The cowl of the airplane that is visible in two photos is that of the TBF Avenger (109" Wing Span) that I am building. Chic

Awesome work Redtail. Where do you find the airspace to fly the big boys in your area? You gotta head out west to Manassas or something?

BennyB - thanks. I belong to PGRC an RC club in Bowie, Md. even though I live in Virginia. Have flown out west also, the owner of Hobby Hangar brings us out to a full scale grass field. I'm building the Avenger now here on RCU: Airplanes, Warplanes and Warbirds - Charles Kellogg TBM Avenger Build. The Airport Tug is for showing off of course. The weight of the airplanes slows the Crawler down to a nice crawl. Chic

Mike Flea - this is the second one I have built. The first one was far too expensive. I used the Vaterra SlickRock chassis. Worked fine but the expense was beyond the need. This one is using the WLtoys 12428 1/12 4WD Crawler. Big engine, should pull a 35+ prop or jet model around with relative ease especially on airport taxi/runways. The first one was sold to a hobby store dealer. This one when finished will be mine. Thanks for the compliment. Will post a finished photo. Chic
