1/10 Caterpillar dozer

[dirtpusher9]

Here are a few videos I made of the dozer and scraper that I built a couple of years ago. This one shows a little of the detail.

This one shows the capability of the dozer.

I noticed that you did not show the one where it was sliding down the side of the dirt pile

OBTW nice dozer

Brel, the dozer has a really low center of gravity just as the real thing. I just was not expecting it to go over, from where I was standing it looked as though I had more room.

I don't think there is a more real looking & operateing r/c machine out there! The night you turned the keys over to me for awhile,& I got to play w/this monster.WAS the MOST FUN I've ever had w/a r/c toy!
Now aren't you glad you didn't sell this work of art?

Very nice, is this a kit or an RC conversion from a static model?

Sorry for the barrage of questions ...

... still looking for that one RC project other than my tanks and I'm not sure a plain-jane truck will do.

This is one I wouldn't mind owning regardless of the cost.

Cat29, I researched for a year trying to find everything I thought I would need and how I would go about designing things and make it look as real as possible and the big trick was to do all of this without showing any fasteners, everything had to look as scale as could be. When I desided to finnally start I downloaded all the pics that I could find of different angles, then blew up a pic of the Cat D9R out of a Cat brochure to the size I wanted the thing to be (don't think that these are accurate because there not just use it as refrence).It is better to blow up a pic of the actual machine. Then just started cuting and building.(slowly)

Thanks Azonic, yes I did and still will, just no time to play with it. Someone should get some good out of it.
