| 1/32 Revell Freightliner converted to RC with 6x6 and overdrive
Hey guys, I thought this thing needs its own thread so here is it. Ive always wanted an RC truck and just could never justify the $1000 price tag for a 1/16 truck and trailer. so... ive cheaped out and built this and ive got the extra step by making it 6x6 with a overdrive front diff, all up this has cost just over $200 and has been a blast to build Specs Body : Revell Freightliner Chassis : Modified Revell Freightliner Trailer : Revell Gearbox : Orlandoo A01 Diffs : Front- P01 upgrade brass diff 1.78:1 Rear- A01 stock 2:1 Shocks : Shortened Orlandoo shocks servo : 5v HK 5330s receiver : Flysky 6ch sound unit : Dasmikro battery : 600mah 25c 2s lipo wheels : Fujimi 1/32 22.5" 10t Fifth wheel : Don Mills Models alloy assembly Custom : sun visor and bug deflector and here is some random pics from the build in no particular order Last edited by Phmaximus; 01-13-2018 at 09:35 PM. |

Love seeing American rc trucks. Wish I knew more about the parts you got to make them. I'm a 1/25 model builder from she I was a kid and have so many trucks. A few 1/32nd too. I'm in the very beginnings of a long scratch build of a true 1/8th ish big rid build to go along with my vaterra ascenders. Going to be a GMC Astro all wheel drive and possibly a flat bed to haul the blazers around. I don't like the European trucks and the scale is off anyway to go with my current trucks. But I love what you've done with your trucks and they all look great together. Ben |
