Bell 50 ton Dumper - ADT
Its been ordered! Now the wait begins, should be ready for delivery early Feb, I only ordered it 2 hours ago and the suspense is already killing me!
After inviting myself to a fellow RC constructions house and playing for the whole day I just had to get a 360 Excavator and Dumper. I’ve been exchanging a few emails with Frank a very nice German fella who is passionate about the models he designs and builds, who also happens to be the same person who designed and built the big Hitachi/Deere excavators. I went for this one as it looks very sturdy, well built and engineered to last, look at the guy standing in the bucket, plus there are no others in the UK. Another bonus, its cheaper than the Wedico ( agreed it doesn’t come painted, where as the Wedico does ) and it’s not a lot more expensive than the Stahl Volvo version. From looking at the photos below you’ll see it’s a kit and can be painted any colour I choose, I love the white version… decisions decisions…! Here are a few photos to wet your and my appetite and a video as well! Roll on February is all I can say… The ideal pair Are you following me or am I following you? How big Big brother Weight testing… The axles Not my Video... http://www.myvideo.de/watch/7494077/...im_Mastab_1_14

Re: Bell 50 ton Dumper - ADT
I know but I doubt there's a trailer strong enough to hold the Vario excavator.. by all accounts its a beast!

Re: Bell 50 ton Dumper - ADT
That's a pretty strong trailer although the tractor unit looked like it struggled a little on the bridge but then its hardly surprising... thanks for the link.
I think I recognized the Hitachi from another forum. Still can't decide if its too big or not??

Congratulations Elliot, I look forward to hearing your reviews on this model.
The 850 is quite a treat to put together thus far. |

Re: Bell 50 ton Dumper - ADT
Congrats! This looks like a really nice ADT! Is this a Vario product too? Wow. They aren't wasting any time with new models, are they? I sure could go for one of these! Maybe a wheel loader is next on the list. That would be really nice. Please do share some (a lot!) photos when your new model arrives!

This isn't a Vario product, its made by http://translate.google.co.uk/transl...www.fumotec.de who is the same person who designed and built the now Vario Excavator. It explains it on the website.. A wheel loader would be nice... and if made by Frank, would be strong as well.

it took all of 5 minutes to unwrap it! Only problem is, it ain't Radio controlled and it smaller than a can of coke!
