Hello! This is my new creation - GAZ 66 firetruck model! Basically, it is a Soviet water tank that is still used in Russia. It has several functions and features: driving (4X4 drivetrain with blocked differentials, Buggy motor for propulsion), steering (Servo motor), working front lights, working beacon lights, working live axle suspension on both sides, tilt cab with a decorative fake V8 engine underneath it, detailed cab interior, openable doors with rubber band locks, openable water tank's compartments with some details like a firehose, openable water tank's top and some custom stickers. All electric functions are powered and controlled with BuWizz. The chassis itself (without the bodework) worked really well, this is my first good try on 4X4 live axle suspension, but the sinal model has some problems because of the weight (almost 3 kg). The suspension isn't strong enough, so it leans on the sides a bit, soI think it needs some bigger dampers, as I don't quite want to use several dumpers on each wheel. One BuWizz is also not enough, because it is struggling to control that much electric functions at once with such weight. Anyways, it is pretty nice to drive. :) VIdeo link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHhpBez6m0Y Photoes: Thank you!
