Another.....Bruder Excavator conversion!

[rockNmayhem]

Have to back up what was said before. The servo's I'm running in my excavator are 645mg's and they work pretty good for it's size. If I ever get the boom and mount finished I'll get some working vids, but for now this project is on the back burner till my tractor is running and all buttoned up.

I'll be glad to help you with any questions you have with your build and be here to guide you.

As for the clips. The most annoying ones for me were the ones on the front under the cab floor. To get the black base off just hold the rear and give the track section a good stong tug. I't will come off and you will see four little clips protruding from the upper peice. The rest is fairly simple. A flat blade screwdriver will be your friend for the cab dissassembly.

Thanks Travis!

I ordered 6 turnigy metal gear high torque servos last night. Are the 360 degree conversions the same on all servos? If so, do you guys have a preferred link detailing the conversion?

I plan to order the main gear and pinion gear today from tower with my coupon.

Hopefully this weekend I will start reverse engineering the excavator so that everything i do is documented in 3D and repeatable for future use.
