1/16 Scale "Unit" Crane

[SmallHaul]

Thanks Craig, wow that was five years ago...it seems like a lot less.

If someone does convert one of these, i made the drums much larger to increase the line speed.

These Units that smallhaul and thestuff made inspired me to start my cable machine.

Since the HD-9150MG servo you used is discontinued, any idea what you'd use instead if you were building one today?

I use the Hitec digital 5625mg servos for the drives of my D5 machines and they are fast and powerful so, that is what i would use. I am not sure what would be a good inexpensive replacement for the 9150mg as i have been using hitec servos in just about everything that i make because they are programmable.
