After a weekend in the garage the compactor is ready for painting. It will get the Volvo collours. I hooked up the electronics as well and have a test drive everything works well only the steering servo is to weak. change this over the coming week.

Beautiful! I can't wait to see it all painted up and operating. Definitely one of the cooler, more unique builds I've seen on the forum.

That's some fine craftsmanship you have accomplished Ramon.

Now time to shoot some video & show us if they work as good as they look?

That is a fabulous model! In the dirt, it is so realistic - hard to know it is not a 1:1. Great job!

Impressive! It seems to work very well! Thanks for sharing the video. I could see operating one of these machines being a lot of fun, even if it's not the first type of machine that pops into our heads when we think construction models!

I just happen to stumble across your video on YouTube and subscribed to you , now I connected the dots. How much ballast you have in the roller? I haven't filled mine yet and I don't want to go over board.
