Those models are too cool Hog, bringing the kid out in me to want some!
2nd GMAN on ground clearance in a BIG way! Those trailers can really flex with some machines on them. I've watched the Cat trucks pulling equipment that scrape on an incline that's maybe 5" due to the center of the trailer hanging down from the flex of a heavy load.

I have a friend who has an RC airplane hobby, and belongs to a local club, where they have an airstrip they meet at.
While looking at videos of some of the trucks and construction equipment on youtube, I browsed around looking at other RC models, and they have ships, helicopters, tanks, rockets, aircraft carriers, you name it, in realistic models and scales. They are all fun to watch. ![]()

Looks like R/C will be as close as I get to a RGN for awhile, other guy got the job cause he had experience. Had an accident too!
