I am converting a Bruder 574 using 4 Hitec HS-5646WP HV for the wheels. These are waterproof and takes 2S Lipo unregulated. Lots of power, ok speed, no need for BEC if you run a RX that can takes unregulated 2S (Futaba FASST for example).
Edit: And they are very easy to convert to continuous running. Last edited by Ths; 11-14-2012 at 10:52 AM. |

Cosworth, You just cost me $75.00. I have been succesfully refusing the temptation to buy any of these bruders to convert for the last year, but once you put the link up to the Rural King store with their great prices I went on and jumped in head first. I stopped in today and purchased the D-4 dozer, the skid steer, and the excavator. Now I have offically entered this hobby. How am I going to tell my wife that I am now doing this as well as my airplanes. I am not sure weather to thank you or cuss you.

What servos did you end up using, and how does it handle? I am converting a Bruder wheel loader using the HV Hitec servos, but find them to slow and hard to program for propper turning circle. Power is fine, but the rest is just driving me crazy.
Would be fun seeing a quick videoclip of it running ![]() |

That was a very fast and clean build. It'll be neat to see the video of it working.

both the servo for the rblade is on its side . andthe servo horn is just under the the ram left side. it hides really well so the look of the hole tractor is clean

Do you have better pics of the mounting system you used for the blade servo?
