    You are a magician bob and I don’t think I would love this 1/14 scale trucks and building as I do without trying and putting you knowledge and tips into my builds. I Thankyou for for teaching me what I know to this date. 👊

    Bob yer a genius. I was messing with the bent wire method but seen this video and had it done an hour later. Just awsome content.

    Tried your trick with a cheap Chinese mini servo and your video did guide me thru very easy, unfortunately glue got in the servo making the assembly not usable. Keep making those nice DIY video.

    Job well done! I was hoping to see ya hook up to a trailer king pin with your fifth wheel plate using your micro servo locking jaw!

    Great video again bob. I just look back at your wireless flatbed set up with the globe liner and was following to bind two receivers. And unfortunately i had the FS-i6B and i seen that you said it wouldn't work so i ordered another 6 ch from your shop. Thanks for the advice!!!

    New Volvo FH16 750 XL has another coupler plate without enough place to glue a servo on

    I always set mine up using fishing line from the hook loop it round the coupler swivel pin to the servo underneath there’s no linkage on show that way

    this did not work on my truck as the spring is not the same as yours on the globe liner you have to do it the other way round to the way that you did it

    Good info! I have a third semi I'm building, but two trailers. I just need the remote coupler for the third truck. Do you know who sells the parts for it?

    Bob, this is great. This method should work when using a motorized trailer leg kit too correct?

    • @HobbyconceptsLLC
      @HobbyconceptsLLC  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Yes, but you have to move the servo to the other side of the deck as they move the ball on the coupler to the other side.

    Love your videos but there seemed to a lot of background noise and your voice got lost

    Will this setup work if you use it to raise and lower the landing gear on a trailer

    • @HobbyconceptsLLC
      @HobbyconceptsLLC  Před 10 měsíci

      Yes, but you have to move the servo to the other side of the coupler deck.
