Hello boys i think there are some who are interested in building their own little toys .
I think that TTTT virus started in the 80. with a few guys equipped a 30 t 1:87 scale truck with rc now the parts got so small that even a 1:87 smart is possible and it has some extras too i posted pictures of it in tiny? and now a picture of a little big truck
There are no official rules there are only a few who build tttt cars and drive with them just for fun but there are ideas for rules
the boys from www.mikromodell.de posted the following rules on their homepage:
there is no time limit .
but the truck should be able to drive at least 10min
every osstackle has 10 points
as in real trucktrial there have to be several obstackles. How much compares to the parcour. you can split the obstackle into stages after mastering it gives you x points . if a truck is stuck you can use your fingers(-5points) or another competant trys to push the stuck car with his own truck +5 points and +10 points for getting a truck back on the wheels if it tipped over. you cant lose more points than you can get or have.
also there should be the a contruktion price for best truck in contest.
how big a parcour is is your choice
I have found a Ford C-cab with a box, and a pull back that looks a little like a unimog. I have some other projects and a school to finish for work. Then we will give it a shot. I wish receivers were cheaper, I seem to be buying a lot of them lately.
I have a thing for the big 4x4 european trucks. Unimogs and MAN's especially. I really want a Paris to Dakar MAN truck. They just aren't easy to find around here. I'll check the sights you posted.
Hi Hicountry they use 40MhzFm pico receiver there are also informations to tune the receivers for more channels and smaller size on www.mikroantriebe.de is the jstmini wich is 25.5-15.5-10.5mm size it can be reduced to 20-15-9mm
onother one ist the graupner XP8 wich is a little bit bigger
this one would be nice with another frequency and if manufactured it like others with the conektors all one one side without other components between them it would be easy to make it shorteri dont know how it is sized but its more than the cell wich is 17mm so maybe it fits on a trucks back.
