It is possible to buy radio controlled tractors, but pretty much all the ones I could find seemed a bit cheap and nasty. Not only that but I already had some leftover Radio Controlled bits and bobs (but I'll show you those later).
Here's some YouTube examples of what other people (with a lot of spare time!) have made:-
Model show 1
Model Show 2
There's lots more on there for you to have a look at. I want to try and make one that's only 2wd (so just the rear wheels drive it along), has working steering, and can lift a plough at the back. I might have a look to see what it's like to make it 4wd and put some lights on it, but we'll see.
The plan is for me to show the bits I buy, the bits I've got, the bits I make (and how I make them), and then a finished tractor that you can have a go on afterwards (Maybe - your mum will explain how protective I am of my toys and models!!!)
But first off, a picture of me stood next to a real one....
