Simple RC Dump truck

[ludov]

This dump truck was built for the Load Zone - Bulk Goods event. It's simple, but works well and easy to drive.

The dump bed lock mechanism is described nicely by @Appie, so I won't repeat that here. It's simple but effective.

The front-end is almost the same as that of my previously posted RC truck, the rear obviously rebuilt to accommodate the dump bed.

Hope you like it!

Thanks @suffocation!

Simple but very effective and very good looking. Imitation is supposedly the biggest flattery and I stole quite a few ideas from this truck for my own truck 

It was a joy to see it live in action
