:) Hello, great job! A few years ago, I built a Bruder tractor of the same design, which worked perfectly. I sold it. I've attached a link to a French forum for your information, which might help you if needed.

Neither would I. Thank goodness the 1:1 does. I would be undriverble without, especially with 10 axels.

Unfortunately, my skill do not extend to steering trailer wheels.
You don’t get wiser as you get older. You just run out of stupid things to do.

I only ever find the need to U-turn my truck 'n trailer is when I'm lost, hopefully that shouldn't be the case with your transporters! ;)

When the German Leopards were being transported to Castle Martin Ranges there would be a minimum of 2 motorcycle outriders and a landie leading the way. So U turns were not a big worry. :lolno:
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Pretty much like all Convoi Exceptionnel/STGO WORK ... as long as the bloke in the escort vehicle knows the way there's little worry about getting lost (in theory 8O )
