I inherited one from a deceased friend that I’m completing as a tribute to him as he passed during the build. I’ve been an rcer for decades but never owned a truck. I’ve gleamed a lot of useful info and ideas from you vids and I was happy to see how you went about installing the MFC while keeping the interior as it appears that’s what my friend was trying to do also. Thank you again for the vids.

At 47. Having been in the rc hobby. I do like scale rc crawler trucks. I now too want to get a rc semi too. Maybe someday soon. Those are pretty neat!!!

This is gold, especially for every new builder. Most of it will be true for other Tamiya trucks, too.

This video was posted 20 minutes ago and I must give it a thumbs up. I love the build videos and this is one I have been anticipating for months. Keep it up Bob!

Awesome Bob, thanks for sharing 👍

This is the kind of truck that needs a black cab, silver fenders and lower panels, extra lit switch panels all around the driver's seat, a recessed scoop just above the grill with a row of eight LEDs that cycle back and forth, and William Daniels' voice.

Great Build Bob. Excellent Work again.

Another fantastic video 😍 You are really the Mr. Tamiya Truck Master. Please continue doing these great Videos 😃 I always learn a lot watching your vids, THX 😊

I am building one now, Bob! Keep up with these awesome videos.. 👍👍

The large hole is for the MFC trailer connector for those that use it. I have built this truck already. I also used a smaller speaker box and was able to keep the dashboard and seats.

Nice work

👍💪 great job Rob, amazing nice truck 😊

Awesome looking truck, i think i need to build one soon. Just need to build my Scania 770s first.

Great job Bob. I'm not a fan of these vibration units, too. Modern trucks aren't so shaky as the ones decades ago.

Super beau camion je viens de terminer le SCANIA 770 je pense que ça va être mon nouveau projet Merci pour ses vidéo très bien fait. 👍🇨🇦

Hi Bob, as usual a good video. I just completed my Knight Hauler and runned it for the first time in our RC truck club. A beautifull truck when you ride it in a scenery. I am very happy whit it. And the build and wireing i did is pritty much the same as you did. The speakercase from the truck kit is to big indeed. But the small one included with the MFC01 does the job fine to. Keep making videos please.

I built my Knight Hauler with the bigger speaker box, I get regularly asked why the sound is so much better (deeper) than the other MFC01 equipped trucks at our local meetings that used the standard speaker box. But yes, that does preclude having a beautiful interior.

The night hauler and the Cascadia were a one piece cab and sleeper design

Bob, a long time follower here...I wonder what'd you do with all this build up kits? are these custom made for clients? However, you are like a guiding beacon for all of us in the semitruck RC world...your vids are both inspirational and educational!...never stop and God bless.

I usually sell the trucks. Most of the time I build them the way I want to but occasionally one is being built for a specific customer.

nice

To allow for easy removal if the cab, I used a 25 way D-type connector set between the LEDs and the MFC.

🇩🇰🇩🇰🤩Nice build 🚨looks great 🇩🇰🇩🇰

❤Your work is very wonderful. Question: Are the electronics included with the truck in the box or do you buy them separately?

Hiya Bob. New dong & bone (cell fone) great videos like the new Bere fmu.

I also got an older truck from my uncle. I set it up with a new radio and receiver. Just trying to figure out the old electronics.

Back in the day Tamiya had a light kit that included switches in the back of the cab. If its one of those you can probably find instructions online. Some of the older MFC's do not work with digital radios so if you have one of those you can email me for info...

I like the video I am new to re trucks which ball bearings did you use and were to go to get different motor.

Bob, a legitimate question, please. Would the fenders and bumper assembly from a Grand Hauler fit as a direct swap onto this truck's frame, or would we be drilling new holes?

@HobbyconceptsLLC

Bumpers would fit right on. Rear Grand Hauler style fenders would need to have holes drilled.

Would love to see a SFR-1

Whats the paint process Bob? Ive painted mine and it came out terrible! Whats the process from getting it out the box to having it finished? Do you prime it? Sand it? Lacquer it? etc etc

Can you tell me can i buy the wheel arch cover on the Tamiya Grand Hauler Custom to put on the Tamiya Knight Hauler if so where i am in the UK i would like to thank you you have so good vids on you tube .

Has anyone thought to chuck the shake motor into a vise, power it up, and take a rotary sander to the spinning weight to shave some mass? That would keep the designed balance while dampening overall vibrations.

Doesn't the MFC have a VR for turning down the cab shaker? VR2?

I do wonder, do "Euro Style" MFC could be instal in this specific truck 🤔 since MFC for US trucks are hard to get and even if they way more expensive

@HobbyconceptsLLC

You can install either MFC in any truck. The MFC-03 has Euro truck sounds and a few things operate differently but fit and operation are fine.

Have you ever tried an 80 turn motor ? Much better scale speeds

@cfusername

Жыл бұрын

Wanted to add the same. Also using 80T motors for these Tamiya trucks. Thanks to the transmission, it still can drive pretty fast, if you want to. Side effect: The current is also lower and the battery will last even longer (not that this is really an issue, but still).

@HobbyconceptsLLC

Жыл бұрын

I have used 90 turn motors but still prefer the 45 or 55 turn motors for most of my trucks. Better all around than the 80 turn in my opinion. The 80 turn has some issues with the MFC in reverse (not enough power).

Full operation kit?

Could I use the Spektrum NX6 2 stick flight controller as the radio controller for the TAM56314 Knight Hauler or would I need to buy the Tamiya MFC Controller

@HobbyconceptsLLC

Yes, you could. You need to center the left stick using the centering screw in the lower left corner of that stick. Then you can program the radio like I show in my DX6e programming video. Note that when you center the left stick it no longer works for airplanes unless you set it back. If you plan on using the radio for both airplanes and trucks I personally would not want to change that back and forth all the time and would get a different radio for the truck.

I assembled the transmission 5 times with only being able to use first or third gear, second and third, or first and second. After your video now I have access to all three gears should I want it to go super fast in third gear. I am also using a basic brushed motor speed controller because I can't use the mfc with the remote I prefer.
