Repainted my Double E E520 to full black!

Very satisfied with the results. it still looks toy grade of course but it now isn't an eye sore as it was before with green and yellow paint scheme

I blew a line already 🤣

Friction tear, well if anyone’s going to find the weakest link in 20 mins it’s me, it pushes like Pete tho! Definitely works! Just gotta wrap the lines!

Looks like it was kinked and worn through but who knows, it doesn’t matter so much how it broke, all that matters is fixing it.

Keeping the 10x10 trend

Ships Monday, it’ll match the 10x10 grand hauler perfectly. D155ax dozer is supposed to be shipped as well.

New to this and want an excavator

I want to get an excavator thats decent for under $400. If i can get different attachments for it like a bucket, drill, auger, etc that would be cool. Ive seen so many but all of them just look like chinese shit so i want to make sure i get the one that would be best for me. Decent quality, metal parts, heavy, electric or hydraulic i dont care.

HARDWARE

Hello all im looking for somewhere to get a good hardware kit or somewhere to get extra parts i can stock so I have them for future maintenance needs .. also even a good screw or bot set to have in hand as one cylinder is missing a bolt.

I designed a Rolloff Dumpster Truck - RC 3D Printed

Would love feedback on a video I just published! Youtube video about the truck

I spent a few months designing the rolloff hook mechanism. There's different dumpsters or even a gridfinity adapter to pickup and deliver gridfinity bins.

After over a year of non movement my Huina 1593 , its finally back!

Finally after more than a year for not making this thing move! My huina 1593 is alive again!

I lost interest around 2025 in rc construction now I'm back fully. this darn remote took way too long after so many sellers failing to send me one!

Back to digging baby! Now I need just a dump truck. I am aiming for a Huina 1573 on my birthday in October or December as b'day present for my self. Better start saving! I've been wanting a 1573 since like 2022.. Lmao.

But regardless, I'm.back to digging my 1593 will be alone for a bit longer for now!

What do I need to build a 1/14 scale Tamiya RC Semi for the first time?

I'm thinking of putting together my first Tamiya 1/14 scale rc semi truck. I have no hobby background whatsoever. I am seeking help/advice in two areas:

What do I need to build the kit? Parts, electronics, tools, anything I'd need to buy separately.

What do I need to be capable of to build the kit? Again, I have no rc knowledge or background, and I'm gonna go with a pre-painted model to avoid painting for my first model.

I'm considering the Mercedes Actros Gigaspace, the black edition.
EDIT: Kit is 1851 Gigaspace Black Edition

Thank you.
