Thanks Neil and James.. I’ll look into the radio’s tonight..

Quick recap:
• Got the frame (check)
• Got two 6mm paint ball guns firing 20 rounds (check) weighing 4lbs
• Got the articulating firing mount (check)
• Got 8 rockets and 2 set of pods (check)
• I got the firing system recommendation (check)


Need the following:
I still need help with the deploying the rear smoke
I still need help to figure out a way to keep the rockets in the pods while bashing the truck
I need to find and buy a 6+ channel radio system
I need to buy another 6mm paint semi auto paint gun


I'm pretty sure I’ve figured out already know how the doors will work (drew if up last night). It will be basically controlled like Linc ref above (linkage and servo).. I'm a little lost on the rotary thing (sorry)..

I plan on bolting the rocket pods to the inside of the gull wing doors, that way when they raise up so do the rockets.. OOoo I can see it now… LOL.LOl.. depends on the weight ?? TBD

My 6mm Semi Auto paint gun only holds 10 rounds (bummer) but its all electronic so I’ll have the options of using either a crude linkage system or I’ll pay BrianG for some programming time.. I even (I think) figured out a way to install two of them, so between 8 rockets and 20 rounds of paint I should be just about good to go.. LOL.LOL

Another thing I still need to figure out is deploying smoke out the rear (some camouflage and confusion screen ).. I know planes have something like a smoke bottle but I'm not sure I can use that on a truck.. So again (any help) is deeply appreciated..

Arct1k
GREAT PULL and at $45 bucks a pop I got two (gave me more ides / Just incase the gull wings fail) Thank you SIR…


Should be a total blast at the next so-Cal bash… (literally!)


Nothing!.. Hahahahaaa..
