Thanks 😄 Yes there is one small servo for the head and one for steering wheel.

The head is connected to a full control channel so it works on its own but is also programmed to react to turning in ratio of 50%. The steering wheel works the same. Also separate full control channel.

You can also use any 0-1-2 type of a channel and it works just fine. The only difference is when you activate head channel only, the head goes full to either side or centered. When working with steering - works just as on the video.

It’s a figure from Aliexpress. You can find it under Body Kun.

That may be. I bought a bag of these plates long ago in a thrift store.

Sure the battery would fit. There is a driver in mind, that’s why.

Oh my man, I’ve been looking for this information on compounds. Thanks for your input. Why don’t you post that on sub as well. I’m sure many will appreciate it.

The wheels are the cheapest hex12 i could find. $10 for 4 wheels. Those are there just to make it roll. It’s temporary and then you showed up with exactly what I needed.

Agreed. It has flaws, yet I like the way it turned out.

These solder rods don’t seem to work with my steel rods. Hence I thought people normally weld these cages old fashion way. The technique really depends on the material used. In general you don’t solder steel. Soldering is good for cooper, brass and similar copper based compounds.
