Tamiya Scania 770S 8x4 Heavy Hauler - Part 4 - Gearbox Build & Top Tips (4k)

Firstly, this was supposed to be a full detailed build of the transmission, BUT.... I was extremely tired after working a 62hr week and then not having any sleep after my last shift. This resulted in a few mistakes along the way, so this video is massively edited and I'm sorry for it being cut to shreds.
There is a more detailer build here 26 → • Tamiya MAN TGX - Proje...
I'm fitting a gearbox mounted gear shift servo. I've had it for a long time but never fitted it so I'll see how it performs. I've left the stock servo in just in case the option part isn't up to scratch.

The tamiya transmission has always been a pain, I hated the way it always twisted when connected to the servo I'll be getting aleast 2of those servo setups, as always completely impressed by your ability to explain how to build these trucks!

After a 62 hours week.... What you took a day off! lol. A great video and still informative, despite the small hiccups due to being tired. Looking forward to the control going in.

Nice one Teri 👍,

[@darrenbeniston3130]

Great video as always Teri ,I fit those gearbox shift servos to all my tamiya trucks but I've found that drilling a third hole at the bottom of the servo bracket helps stop the servo from flexing ,looking forward to seeing the rest of this truck build

Hi Teri I have just put an order in for the 770s 8 4/4 and on the it looks as the motor is different to what Tamiya use so why did you change it to the Carson.

[@TeriWilde]

I prefer the Carson Poison Truck Puller 80t motor because it is slower and draws less current which makes the batteries last longer.
