Hey, you guys are luck
My digital Camera messed up and i just got it back and had built a knucle
bone (the tern used to call the loader on a logging truck)
Well, anyway, I have several pics you can look at.  It isn't remote control,
but it is modeled after the one on Brickshelf.com, 8868 .
I will reply to this message with the page that have the pics of it soon.

Not for the weak-hearted *anything*.

You realize,  of course,  that this could destroy the newsgroup:  if you
succeed,  no one else will be able to brag about anything for months ;-)

Suggestion:  all the crane trucks I've seen have separate seats for the • truck
and the crane (probably so the driver doesn't accidentally raise the crane
when trying to turn on the windshield wipers...).  Why not do a 3-channel • RC
for the truck,  and a 5-channel for the crane?  It will cost more,  of • course.
But it will probably be *much* easier to make it work.  And it will be more
realistic.

Another possibility:  use 8 servos,  and one or more relays to switch some • of
the channels between "driving" servos and "crane" servos.
