Potain Crane Build

[Southgate]

Wow! First class engineering and craftsmanship from the very start! That video must be a real help in designing your model, huh? Very interesting crane. cant wait to see progress.



Where did you get your motor-gearhead units? They look like the ones I'm using in my crane. I got all of mine used from a friend who dumpster dived them for me. I'd sure like to know where to get nice new ones. Dan

Yes the video helps allot, also there are Potain spec. sheets online in PDF with a few over all dimensions that let you blow up to actual model size to get dimension.
I got the gear motor from Battery Space:http://www.batteryspace.com/dcmotors.aspx
