all right time for some updates.

excavator:
ordered a sound card from eagle machinery ( same as my loader)
and crammed it into the excavator, am running it of the 4th valve so after my Y cable (signal reversing) turns up it should be all go.

have also made a few decals for the rock truck,

also had a slight problem with the loader.
had a rear wheel come loose from the axial, emailed tang at eagle machinery and got a detailed how to do , remove wheel, remove ring gear, pull axial, pull washer , look inside and find 4 small bolts holding planetary gear to axial housing tighten up and all good.


new drive motors for excavator have turned up so will fit those when I have a bit of time, also front fenders for loader here and painted.

also have eight more diggers, early one morning on my way to the shed for a bit of play time and I spot this.

heres a real quick video of the sound card, flat battery.
you can see how the revs drop when the sticks are moved, the signal reversing lead will fix this.

cheers andy

heres a better video showing the issues I have .
sound card wont shut down, because Im using the 4th bypass when there is no stick movement the revs are high.
in order to shut down the sound card I have to stop pump, use a stick , drop sound card revs then use a track and all shuts down.
when the reversing lead shows up all these steps will be gone, hopefully
