I just happen to notice you have what looks like two power steering pumps, any reason or just for redundancy?

Nice engines btw!

Hydraulic steering is tough if you happen to lose a motor with PS. If you build it with breaking in mind it wont break... right?

Yup know it well! When I was working the kinks out last year I was having coil problems and limped home several times! I think every time I had to limp it was the PS engine that had quit. It is hard but not un drivable! Kinda like driving a non PS car!!

I wish I could take credit for those engines, but TxHawk is the man behind the beauty. I just do my best to keep them clean! Thanks though!
