There is/was another company called Wedico. They also made some pretty sick semi-truck kits. They made the Tamiyas' look cheap. I don't know if Wedico is still around.

I think ur correct Z400, I beleive they also have a remote much like that used for RC aircraft with several channels. That way you can do the usual foward/reverse then you can also detach, honk the horn and turn on lites etc.

A warning to ALL of you!!! I am NOT happy about this thread. I checked the links yesterday and the videos today, and now I'll have to spend almost a grand to get one of those. Wow, that's intense. They even have that "tractor shudder".

I have seen a couple RC big rigs and they are HUGE! I was amazed at how big they really are!

This rig is $652, the tanker trailer is $538, and below are the rest of the accessories.
Now I'll have to start buying lottery tickets.
