Great job 👏👍💪
Hey Bob always great to look to your video's, greetings from Belgium
Nice to your video my friend
Great stuff Bob you make it look easy and definitely fun to build. Thanks for sharing. 👍
I’m having hard time putting my transmission together and gears together but I did and I used an c batteries to it but it worked.
To prevent the 5th Wheel plate from being scratched, I suggest using silicon grease or a disc of thin white cardboard surrounding the trailer's kingpin. ;-)
Question for you Bob, is it possible to request the super clean or do you have to dispose of it after stripping the chrome parts?
Se parece al de la película Transformers "Optimus Prime".
Aunque quizá no sea el mismo luce genial.

How did you strip the chrome of the tanks ? Thanks !!
Nice built, congratulations
Watching this video, made wish tomorrow was Friday and my order you sent was here!! Unfortunately, I will have to finish my current task of painting my kitchen cabinets before I can start my build.
Yes! painting the kitchen should give you lots of bonus points for your modeling!!
@@HobbyconceptsLLC I told her she needed to buy me a truck because of the 4300.00 I’m saving us. I’ve been sanding doors and drawers for 8 days.
does somebody know how to use the support legs with the mfc 03 unit? it works nice without the mfc unit. buth when i install it like in the manual it doesnt work.
Where did the screws for the two part that have to go on before putting in the transmission cone from
Hello i was thinking about purchasing a kit and wondering if the electronics come with the kit or if i have to purchase them separately i have a few crawlers and other RC vehicles but i was wondering if I needed to purchase them separately
Is 80t motor too slow for this Grand Hauler? Or an overkill compared to the 55t? Just want a realistic to scale speed.
Interesting you use a heat gun for shrink wrap? I have always used the side of the soldering iron. I was shown this as an apprentice and done it that way ever since. I’m 80 now and never had a problem with that method.
Love all your video’s! Ordered my first rc truck. The new Scania S770. Cant want to build it. I’m learning so much from your video’s. Every step is well explaint! Would you also build the new Scania kit? Greetings from The Netherlands👋🏼
Actually as soon as the new S770 comes in I will be doing a build on it.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC that's very nice! Can't wait to see the build if there is going to be a build video.
Hey Bob Have you ever painted the frame? Can you also enclosed the frame to hide the wires for the lights?
Have painted several frames. Same paint as the bodies. Have tried enclosing the frame but it is a thought..... Here is a painted frame: th-cam.com/video/H-XaaFXN93E/w-d-xo.html
Love watching your builds and wondered if you ship r/c gear to the UK.
Thank you for watching! I do only ship in the U.S.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC so u lose loads of business. u should ship all over would if buyer wants it why not send it.
Quick question Bob, I LOVE your Simple Green Chrome removal. I want to keep a portion of the Chrome on some of the parts. Is it possible to paint over some of the chrome.?Chrome.?? I will ba airbrushing using Faskolor and Proline paints. No reaction to the chrome.??Chrome.??? Let me know. I am on the fenders now. Awesome series by the way.!!
You can paint over chrome but is just not stick well. Strip what you can and then rough up the chrome a bit before painting. I use Super Clean to strip chrome.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC LOL, I said Simple Green instead of Super Clean..!!! Many thanks for the help.!
Hey Bob I have just started getting into the RC hobby and have a Tamiya Ford F-350. Can I use one of your pre-programmed radios with the servos with this kit?
Yes, sure can. It will work with a standard speed control and will also work with the Tamiya MFC-02
How do you get the thing to have forward and reverse I only can get forward?
Hello Mister, how much did you spend on this project?
🔥💕👌👍
Alguien sabe dónde puedo conseguir un trailer
I plan to build my first 1/14 truck and trailer. what is the difference between the Grand Hauler and King Hauler other than looks? Is it the same frame, etc? Also does the King Hauler Black Edition not need to be painted?
The Grand Hauler has a longer frame. Some of the body add ons like exhaust, lights, air cleaners etc are different. The Black editions of both trucks are pre-painted and do not need additional painting.
Is there any reason I couldn't 3d print a micro servo bracket and make the 5th wheel a remote release as it comes? I don't want an MFU, I'm planning to use a beir, but I would like the remote function. I can't find it separately at this point.
Actually all you need is a flat plate under the chassis. I hook the servo to that and then make a link to the plate. If you use a micro servo you can hide everything below deck height.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC Awesome thank you! This is my first build on one of these, I assumed it could be done something along those lines(how we used to do scale planes with aileron pushrods), but thought I'd ask anyway.
Thanks for the great videos btw. I wish someone had been around 20 years ago when I was building balsa kits with this kind of help LOL
Hi Bob Shane here from the UK what color Tamiya blue is that a it's beautiful blue same with your truck
TS-50
@@HobbyconceptsLLC thank you
Ok Bob, what about the novice building this kit like myself that isn't going to use the MFC . How do you program the flysky remote using the hobbywing 1060 ?
Yes, the remote works either way.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC ok then my esc must be bad . Everything works except it won't go in reverse direction . I even tried a different remote and reciever from my crawler build with the same result.
Most ESC's have a jumper you need to set to get delayed reverse or direct reverse. Check your ESC manual for details.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC didn't make a difference the placement of the jumper. I'm a beginner with the semi kit but this is my 35th Rc vehicle. 1st with this kinda remote .
Contact me by email. My email in video description
Is there anything else that will strip the chrome. We don’t have that fluid in the UK.
EZ Off Oven Cleaner works
Thanks Bob
What strength servos do you use in your builds?
Generally standard torque Metal Gear servos.
Hi Bob what size of servo are you using . Is 20kg too big for nothing
20kg will work just fine.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC tank you for your answer
I wonder who out there paints these types of bodies? I know that there’s a bunch the paint lexan bodies.

Video title leads one to believe Grand Hauler build is something for a novice to attempt to build. If so which Tamiya kit do you feel is not for the novice….? Interesting your throwing bearings away, perhaps you meant bushings…?
Yep bushings.... And I have other truck videos with the "For Novices" title. Just want folks to know this is a good video if you want to get started in Tamiya Trucks.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC at least he watched the whole video...??
what happened to showing us the painting and undercoating like you told us.
In Part 3 - coming soon.
I don't understand why you use the stick transmitters. You have MUCH finer control using a surface transmitter.
Stick radios are required when you have sound and light features like the MFC-01.
Ohhh. The screaching………..lol
Did I make a bad noise somewhere?
