that thing is nasty, gives me a good idea how my clod 6x6 will be. i am going to watch this onw. have you thuoght about replacing the tamiya and bulet ends with deans, you will get better voltage flow and might get a little bit more run time.

the first idea


the first test without water

- the servo to rise the hose
- a big ball bearing at the top, to fit the hose
- and a small bearing at the bottom

Thats inside now !

I try to explain:

-1 the msc for the waterpump engine (windscreen and headlight water pump)
-2 reciever 8 channel
-3 with the hose inside
-4 the resistants 200W for driving msc (the orig. busted)
-5 the waterpump, I try to make some better pics
-6 at the bottom the servo with the 4 msc
Nice job, but this is giving me a headache just looking at it.

Man that thing is the coolest thing I have ever seen. You are a mechanical genius. I saw a full size one like that on modern marvels on the history channel. It was an airport firefighting rig made by OshKosh. It had a really cool spear type thing that telescoped out and punctured the skin of the plane and once it puncture through the planes skin it shot water or foam into the planes interior. I think that rig you built here is so cool. Good luck with the rest of the build.
