Re: 1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane
Thanks Steve, I made a new video from the drivers seat. Well actually the driver would be on the other side but, the camera fit better on the right.

Re: 1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane
Thanks Dan, I converted them to continuous rotation. I thought I made up a "how to" for it but, I can't find it. Must have been the old forum. I make a new one.

Re: 1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane
I like the noise too. That reminds me I need to take ear plugs to Brownsville this year.

Re: 1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane
Nice work Scott
Thanks for the photo's, I see you milled up a Cobra heli main gear, I have to admit I have done the same in my Cat 345 log loader. I think I stripped a few of those gears in my model heli days.... greg |

Re: 1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane
Thanks! Yes, it came with a clam bucket when I bought the crane. The clam needs really soft loose soil to fill the bucket so, I don't use it much.

Re: 1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane
Firing up the way back machine again. I know some guys don't like when I do that but this thing is too cool and deserves another look. Hopefully it will give some inspiration to somebody that has never seen it before. Way to go Scott, another awesome build and what better way to put life into an old toy.
