Since we are on the subject of the Pejo...

What are people using for light bars? The ones from the F-350 / Highlift?

Are you building both? I am undecided on which one I should get (future) to go with the Reef Trailer (farther future).

On one hand, the Volvo is discontined, but on the other hand the Scania looks "beefier" out of the two.

But do the Clod & MP allow LEDs to go in there?

No point in having a light bar if they don't light up

Being a semi truck, I am sure they don't sell as fast as the other items - that is why they are still around.

Not much of a demand for semi trucks. Maybe in 50 years a collector would want it for 1/2 of what they are going for now.

TEX, I am building this 100 size electric helicopter for gym and indoor duty, pretty nuts, brushless and everything. Hard to work on though...
Is it the GAUI micro heli?
