Workbench time

Not much here. I cant film and work but wanted to share modding an SCX24 Deadbolt radio for use with rear steer. Still full left or right but easier to use, auto returns to center. That and an option for the AX24 body.

I love your truck that you’ve built. Very unique and she crawls great too. Very good work!

Thanks, its fun (now). Still needs some tuning but considering how flip floppy the AX24 was out of the box so far happy. Its able to crawl this little dry stream, I had tried when new out of box, was on its side or top more than rolling. Didnt last 10 minuets before I gave up & tore it down. Always wanted an old Willys truck- this is as close I'll ever get :)
