Ordered one of each colour

Rocketman,

Its a standard 5 ton, has a 20k lbs. winch etc. I got it then "Bobbed" it, that is I removed the back axle and shortened the frame, I just finished my "Hobby" shop so I will be further customizing it to include extending the cab back about 1.5 to 2 feet. Heres my shop

Very nice setup for sure.

Same. 33 quids each got to be some catch but I ordered them anyway.

I am really surprised with the news and with the price! Do you know if it has any sound and what kind of remote-board uses? Hope to be able to use hobby grade ones.

Shipping to Canada and import tax I guess are the only catches?

Actually it is not bad, because I don't have to pay VAT so it offsets some what. Still I am a little worry. Looks way more expensive than that. It looks like servo steering so a simple ESC should do it unless you want sound. Will be interesting to see but like I said, $60 CAD for me before shipping is a steal.

I just tried to order one and got turned down because they "don't ship to my location". I sent an email and I'll keep ya posted.

Just in case, I might be looking for a volunteer to buy one and ship it over here. Naturally I will pay all costs up front via paypal.

And the order to Canada went through? Did you pay by paypal or some other method? They wouldn't sell me one. Waaaaaah!
