My new 4 x 4...
 

Hello together!

A few months ago I got me a new BLOCHER-chassis. It is the 4x4x4 trac kit. Here are some pictures from the assembly...:

Four speed controllers...:

Nearly finished with a CLAAS body from BRUDER:

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

No doupt about it: It has it´s price, but the kit has a A++ quality. Each wheel has a brushless motor and a three step planetary transmission with a ratio of 71:1. Therefore you need these 4 speed controllers...
With a 2s LiPo it runs fase enough, Maybe for tilling a field even too fast. Though it runs fast, it has a very high torque at each wheel. Veeeeery poweful!
Here´s some information from the manufacturer: http://mfz-blocher.de/allradtrac.html

I chose the BRUDER Xerion 5000 body, because the chassis was made for these dimensio0ns. But it will also fit to a

......the wheelbase does not fit exactly to this tractor. Regarding that it has no fenders I guess it will work...

This one my fit to the cassis too:

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Wow Frank! That's a really great kit. I've always looked at these models with great interest. The fact that they are all over seas purchases keeps me from buying, but they are cool. I'm looking forward to seeing what you think of this kit, and to see some videos of it. Can't wait to see how it pulls!

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Looks great!

Those square motors look interesting, any information or link you have about them?

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Where do you buy the Blocher chassis? Directly from MFZ Blocher?

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Yes, I bouht it direct from MFZ-Blocher.

@Madda: Haven´t information about the motors yet...the model is in my friends workshop at the moment.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

I love Andreas's kits. Wish he still sold just tires. Your model looks very nice. :)

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

I like it allot!! Question: where did you get the tires?


Can't wait to see a vid! :)

Thanks

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

The tires are delivered together with the kit including aluminum rims.

This should be the installed poweplant:

Gear ratio 71:1 with a 2 cell LiPo...

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Frank, that is a very nice tractor.....can't wait to see it in action. Wish I had that setup.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

so you can't get just the wheels and tires? I'm trying to navigate that site with my phone :/

very nice build. we need a north american supplier of this kind of stuff......

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

You may contact Andreas Blocher and ask if the tires are available...
But you may also find some with nearly teh same dimensions in the U.S.....at Dakotah toys in SD. The "Trelleborgs" have nearly the same diameter.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

thanks a million for the link! just the site i needed for some little voices in my head :D:D:D:D

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Anxious to see a vid of that machine! how wide is it from the center of each tire?

Re: My new 4 x 4...

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Pretty cool pic with the 1:1 in the back.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Wow this is just amazing. It looks fab. How much did it cost you to build in total If you don't mind me asking?

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Here you find the chassis-kit:
http://mfz-blocher.de/allradtrac.html
...+ 4 speedcontrollers (about 30 Eeros each), + 3 servoes for steering and 3pt. hitch...

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Frank is this one up and running yet? Need a video!

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Hi together!

Got some new stuff: B-Trim module, released this month...

http://mfz-blocher.de/fahrtenregler.html

With this you have a "cruise control" and reverse gear shifting just with one touch of the stick. May be interesting for bulldozers, too...Here´s a video how it works:

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

That's pretty neat.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Thanks!

Here´s another video from a test run with a subsoiler....onbordcamera...:

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

The tractor does really well on that ground, I was surprised. Is it hard packed ground? I also love that camera angle, nice touch!

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

The surface was relatively soft, but deeper it was hard packed. I just brought the subsoiler 1/2 inch deep in the ground.....normally it would till 1 inch deep.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Frank,you making it look so easy.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Nice one Frank! Seems to work really well.

Do you know what motors and planetarys are fitted to your Claas? They look like Robbe ones but was wondering what spec?
Also what speed controllers did you use?

Cheers
Stu

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Frank, can you tell us more about the 9420T Deere in this video? Is it a Blocher kit of some kind as well? Love the tractors.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

After taking another look is that Kolpen's tractor?

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

For the tractor pull at our fair a friend made some weights for the Xerion.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Sweet! what do they weigh?

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Found some more pictures of the model...:

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Oh, c'mon Frank, now your teasing us with the Challenger. Tell us more about it!

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

BTW, love the Trelleborg tires on the Challenger!:jaw:

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

Maybe the Challenger will be converted one day, but I got too many other projects in the workshop. Untill then he will stay in the display case.

Re: My new 4 x 4...
 

How much torque those motors have? I need to choose motors and I have no idea how much torque is needed for RC tractor.
