Default Re: track loader

U are having a hard time due to the Stahl one no longer made. I have the carson/tamiya track loader and very comparable to the other track loaders. It's screw drive instead of hydro and will keep up with the hydro models. U have the option to make it hydro for more money. Out the door u looking to spend $3000 for RTR. Detail level is close the scaleart track loader. On a good charged 5000 mah 7.2v pack I can it close to 2hrs. After comparing against the stahl and scaleart track loader i plan to keep mine with screw drive. There is a bruder converted one from spain but from what I have seen it's trouble some.

I saw the Carson/Tamiya too, sounded like the tracks were plastic which I didn't care for. But I liked it's metal body and the newer body style though. What website would have the best deal for the loader, thanks again.

Howdy Scott
with what electronics did yours come ? or did you install your own ones ?
since this electronic set from Carson ( compact unit with lights and all ESC's ) just has been released , but I just haven't found enough info's about that one yet , since nobody seams to carry it . I just saw a fairly high price for that unit . something around 400 Euros ?
Guess a couple small ESC's for the drive-motors or even a nice Tamiya tank-DMD with some small Thor controllers for the spindle-drives should do the trick here .
