RC Bruder 5cx backhoe loader
I have all ways wanted an RC backhoe and I like the new Bruder 5cx backhoe loader. I plan to modify it to be full RC.
Here are functions it will have:
. full independent working backhoe boom, stick and bucket
. 4 speed planetary transmission
. Full independent loader boom and bucket
. Combination bucket
. All wheel drive
I can't afford a lathe, mill or drill press and have no machining skills so Bruder was the logical solution. It will have some metallic parts like the bucket and drive train. The plastic buckets would be too weak for this application and would take lots of wear.
