Hi Phil
That is coming along very nicely.
Will you have the folding deck panels working with servos and arms?

Derek

[phil fitzpatrick]

Thanks Maarten and Derek
No Derek I will leave it Manual with the latches fastened but it will
operate and stay horizontal.
It will be a bit crowded underneath as it is
Cheers

Following this thread with interest

There was a cargo '7' at TankFest last year, and I was quite taken with the cargo body on it, rather than the usual troop carrier:

Adrian.

Some pictures of my rear deck,before I strip back down a bit for my electrics.

Hi Phil
That looks so cool I am following your build closely.

I have been going through my boxes again and will start my
build I hope in the next couple of weeks.

Derek

[phil fitzpatrick]

Thanks Derek
I have made the front infill bits for the joint between deck side and
body side which I can fit the front latches to,the rear ones will be on little plates.
have stripped down now and I am confident there is room for all modules to fit.
Just the positioning of the power supply for the start button to be thought out.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil, Nice Work!

Do you also install a smoker?

[phil fitzpatrick]

Thanks Maarten
Yes I will be fitting the smoker and hopefully one of Adrian's
smoke control sets.
Cheers
Phil
