I hate to disappoint you Lil Giants, but I did not build the tracked loader, so there is no build thread from me.

I bought it ready built from a guy called Jo Smith in the UK via the http://www.rc-trucking.com/ forum, he sold it to me with an esc to control the pump via the fifth channel and a small German dual esc to run the tracks, that I burnt out in five minutes.

As far as I know the machine is a Stahl model with the bucket from their wheeled loader, the pump and Hydraulics are Leimbach. other than that I do not know any more about it

over the last few months I have been experimenting with several dual esc's and eventually settled on a Novak M2 Dig Dual Brushed ESC and this last week the pump esc with the Servonaut BMA pump controller, which I have now set to turn the pump off in 1.5 seconds after the sticks have been centred, I even tried a Tamiya DMD unit to try and drive the tracks but it was too big also tried a sabre tooth dual esc but the steering in reverse was reversed so went with the Novak

as far as I know the tracks are the stock length and I have had to do a temporary repair to one of the because a couple of E clips have come out and I am waiting for new ones ( put some m3 bolts in as a temporary measure).

here is a picture in as bought condition


Jens, Thanks for the translation on the Scal4x4 forum

It seems to be a hybrid:
- body from the tracked loader
- under carriage from the dozer
- arms/ bucket from the Cat 966

Pretty cool and unique.

it would seem to be that way, but it has got better to run after installing the ServoNaut MBA pump module, with the leimbach pump and tank in the machine
