1/16 Bruder Mack Granite Halfpipe RC Conversion

Test # 2 - I tried to make an attempt at a video on how some of the things are done and how they work. The truck is all built on the stock Bruder plastic frame and it is what I call a TRUE Bruder conversion. I misspoke about the center rear axle support is made out of a 2" x 2" flat 6061 aluminum bar stock, not angle iron. The rear axles are made from 6061 aluminum 1.25"OD x 1"ID tube and have 4 - 25mm 200rpm 12V gear motors in them. The motors and receiver are powered by a single 320A fan cooled ESC. Powered by an Ovonic 3S 2200 Lipo battery under the hood. Flysky FS-T6 radio and matching receiver. The front axle in an aluminum aftermarket Tamiya style with my own custom built ocsillating mount. Steering servo is a MG995 and the bed lift is an Actuonix 100mm 150:1 6V RC linear actuator. The front and rear lights are 5mm LED's 2 red and 4 white. The 5 clearence lights are 3mm white LED bulbs. The paint that I used is Krylon All-In-One Gloss White for the cab and Gloss Smoke Gray for the box. The tires are LESU S-1213 rears and S-1216 fronts and are mounted on Xtra Speed Beadlock white wheels. Used brass 4mm shaft coupling adapter to 12mm hex to mount the wheels to the motor shafts.

Thats the beauty of building. Youre often looking to improve things but sometimes its often the first idea that works best. Looks great Dennis
