Radio: Futaba 3PK HRS with 2 digital servos (Futaba S9350 and JR S8611) only 2 servos cost me $230 no money left for the 3rd servo. I don't want to talk about the tranny [>:][>:]

still need: 2nd engine, either the new RB .28 or Sirio .27 or Rossi .21 Black Magic

It's looking very good so far. I take it you haven't received the radio and servos yet? Make sure you upload a few photos of you driving it. And as the Coupe asked, let us know how much it weighs when you are finished building it--it may need the "twin" conversion to haul all that weight.

So let me get this straight. You are going to have two different types/sizes of motors going on to this truck? Won't that just cause a discombobulation on the spur gear and eat it up right away when one is going 30,000rpms and the other is going 40,000rpms? Or is there another way to transfer both motors power to the tranny?

when you have a .40 fourstroke under the hood, you don't really care about it being heavy
strong is another word to use

Is that a rock crawler? How fast does it go or is it just for some monster pulls? Looking good, I love that beefy transmission. Make sure you have a few weak parts for easy fixes if that thing goes though. Is it a FOC? Will the spinners get damaged if they are subjected to a large jump?

its everything, just change the tires and ready to go (off-on road)
no it's not FOC, they are from OTB and HCR
the spinners are inside of the rim, but i wouldn't risk jumping it
