Servos and trucks
Servos seems a little of an odd subject but for their size they, and there associated parts, do seem to cause an inordinate number of problems! So its time to examine some of those and but some of the problems to bed.
Beier SFR1
A few months ago Beier added to their latest range by bringing out the SFR1. This is a unit that combines sound, light and ESC, it is expensive but still a bit less than the two separates.
Tamiya Trucks
Tamiya provide 1/14th scale truck kits for a number of US and European style trucks. The European trucks are generally available as either 4x2 or a 6x4 versions. US trucks are all 6x4 versions. what does that mean? well the first digit denotes the number of wheels on the truck and the second the number that provide drive. Drive wheels are all double width standard road wheels but come as a module. Tamiya also provide upgrades to the trucks but more later. The kits come with plain bearings and a standard 27 turn silver can motor plus all the "truck" parts. You will need to provide the radio( transmitter, receiver, 2 standard servo, speed controller) and a battery.
