Thanks. Had to get a few while it was still all shiney..
now I need to try several batterys in the loader to see if my fix is going to be long term.
I can see why the bearing failed, just really bad clearance in the castings and a lot of loading.
I see this all the time at work on the cheaper electric motors that are fitted to some of the machines that get installed buy the bean counters.
they wonder why maintenance cost is so hi.
need I say more.
dose any one know if theze are the same axial setup as the armagedon dump trucks and do thay have the same issues.

loader up and running again, I think I've dislodged the sound module cable,
will run a few more batteries and sort as well check diffs.

put loader thru so rigorous testing ( just a bit of play time)
and all going well, battery flat again so the excavator needed a bit of a work out.
all going well.
don't know whats up with the mic on the lap top, I may adjust it with a hammer soon.

anyway heres a quick video of this mornings testing.

had a bit of playtime, have slowed the revs on the signal reversing card, sounds a little better, not revving its head off.

Great Equipment you have there!! I am just starting, so far i have the excavator like yours and the armageddon dump and my Loader like yours is on it's way. Think I will pull it apart and do the diff's right away. Is that Big dump truck manufactured by you or another outfit?

Now that's a nice wall of fun!!! I had the wife convinced (and myself) that you had the sandbox inside the house. From other posts you could see a couch and looked to be inside. She lets me run them in the house but don't think I could bring dirt in the garage. Although the supports the idea of me building a vacuum truck.
