That does look nice. I like the spare tire mount. Please keep the pictures coming.

Your next project ---
Are you going to rig it with a towing crane?
How many trucks do you have in your stash?

Mostly finished. Some small touch ups to do, but I'm ready to move on to some other ideas. This ambulance has a Flysky radio system, 30amp ESC, metal servo, new drive line pieces, Taigen battle system, with Mako 2018, FPV DVR system.

Funny, I thought about leaving it off because no one would recognize it. Then I thought it would distract from the lack of tail lights.....for now.

Someday I will give up impulse buying when someone on this forum posts a new military r/c vehicle. But not today.
Thanks for the alert ---

I saw those toy M26's and wondered how big they were - do you think they'd be about the right size to pass muster towing a 1/18 Team Bravo Sherman?

The Team Bravo 1/18 Sherman is a touch under size, but not small enough to work on the back of that... Pity.

Those are coming along nicely, Martin. I've been working with the new printer but I still have some issues with tires. The last pair came out looking very nice, but they sagged and now they're not completely round. That might not matter hen I go to flexible resin, but I'll keep trying to make it better before I pull out the expensive juice.

I did print some door handles for Terry's 1/10 IH truck and they came out just beautiful. They look like injected molded Tamiya parts, no B.S. Next I'm going to try the tow hitch and see if I can find a file for some wing mirrors.

Thought I’d add a few pics of trucks we RC’d for FRAG. The one pulling the M5. 3” gun is fully equipped for battle w a TBU.

Well RCU won’t let me edit the post for some reason..... I wanted to add that these all started out as JJRC Q60 & 61 trucks.

I really like the M5. Is it available as a kit?
