Looks like an awesome model, congrats!!

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

Very nice.... my first ever construction model - fantastic choice... :D

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

Ben, I'm jealous. Very cool, congratulations on your purchase.

That is one fine looking loader. Looks beautiful from the start.

Just remember to remind Nate that drool is NOT a lubricant, Travis. It collects dirt and is BAD for the electronics. :p:p

Well I've almost got it all together, just waiting on a few parts (2- bearings, decals and a charger) I'm hoping to get the radio and install it while in Indy Friday. If this thing performs like it looks, it'll be awesome. I'm pumped.

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

Great addition to your fleet; I can't wait to see it in action! :D

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

What? You want me to be the first one to operate it?! I'm honored :D

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

Funny Nate. I'm sure you'll get a chance........ Under adult supervision of coarse.

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

You better be careful Ben, if Nate gets his hands on it he'll be trying to get it out to his car to take it home before you know it.

He'd be one happy R/C'er. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

Congrats Ben! Awesome machine.

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

Well...... all went well for a little while in Indy. Then busted 2 hoses and now have 2 stripped out servos.:(:(:(:( ScaleArt has been great for the service I'll have to see if it continues. I'll keep you posted (Darrell, Ed and Nate). It's gotta get better.:confused:

The only way it gets better is when it lives in my basement and you get visitation rights! Trust me, I wanted to throw the 966 out the window countless times working the bugs out. Did they say anything about the hot components and routing the hoses correctly?

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

That doesn't sound good, I used mine for hundreds of hours and didn't have a problem. That's real bad luck. Just out of interest, did you set the end points on radio for the servos, so you don't over drive them?

Re: Snochaser's Construction Co. Builds
 

You are persistent PFB, I'll give you that.

Elliot, good point. I didn't. But the valves see to move fairly easy. I will for sure set that on the new ones. Haven't received any info back from them yet.
