    I'm not sure if they are just fake Hydraulic arms or actually perform a function whereby they reduce / limit any twisting / turning from the rudder on the servo arm through some sort of pneumatic action. That said I can't see any servo arm to control the rudder...

      i think one of the arms works (push pull steering arm) and the other is for show. 0ne set up) ,but i have also seen both arms attached to servos, so both push and pull.

        I read somewhere someone made a cable push-pull actuated rudder, both cable are running through each piston's body, through te transome and are attached to the servo horn.

          Sorry to hijack the topic here but just a quick question.

          In the second photograph shown by bonewar I see that the water feed to cool the motor and esc comes in, through the motor and then across the esc before exiting. I would have though, depending on the voltage and speed you were running it at that the motor would be hotter than the esc hence better to run it across the esc then the motor before exiting or am I totally incorrect here?

            In the first thread by Bonewar, the FAKE hydraulic rams shown in the 3rd picture is made by Hanspeter for the Hpr cats. The rams have a shaft that comes out of the hydraulic cyclinder and one end is attached to the rudder and the other has a cable that goes to the servo. They are of the pull/pull type. I have a set that is going on my Hpr115 Cat. Hope this helps.

                    try this place if you want real working hydraulic rams for RC

                    We bring you REALITY AT MODEL SCALE trucking and construction equipment that real works by radio control. We do not sell you a model in a box and say goodbye. If you wish to buy a truck from Precision Model Distributors you will do the same things here as you do in a real truck dealership. You first need to determine a brand of truck, Peterbilt or Freightliner, what you want the truck to do; haul oil, haul dirt, or haul bulk freight. You will need to determine your wheelbase, your power requirements, transmission requirements, and drive axle ratios and level of reality. These are a few of the real details involved in our trucks and construction equipment. If it is a dump truck or a Caterpillar wheel loader when you talking hydraulics we mean real with real oil. Transmissions metal transmissions with ball bearings, and three gears that you shift on the go by radio control. Realistic engine sound and a full lighting system interior cab lights if you want them. How about a realistic tow truck if you get stuck in the mud? From a light duty tandem axle to an ultra heavy duty eight wheel drive unit. Just like a real truck we have many accessories to add sparkle to turn your work horse into a show horse. We even have 1:16 scale driver available, union and non union depending on the part of the country you are working in.

                          Does it have a seal on the shaft? or do you put grease on the cable where the teflon tube goes?

                              The circut board you are reffering to is a esc's and the ribon is to strape the batterys in.
