Magom HRC Wheel loader

[roadranger]

So, is it out yet? It's not on Magom's website yet Jan. '17...

The price by the time you get a radio and ship it will be slightly higher than the Eagle 870 all metal wheel loader.

I wonder if this Magom loader will dig as good as the 45 lb. Eagle loader?
Eagle = 1 motor with driveshafts, rear axle locked.
What does this all metal Magom have for drivetrain?
And how much does it weigh?

The problem with Bruder conversions is that the plastic body makes it too light for good digging traction.
Most Utubes show the Bruder's working hard digging to come up with 1/2 a bucket, whereas the heavyweight Eagle just walks right in and digs a full bucket without breaking a sweat.

My play area is usually damp so on my Magom bruder conversion the stock tires would fill up and spin. I had some 1.9" rock stompers laying around so threw them on and filled them with bb's. Added 3 or so lbs and definitely more grip. Digs much better, less scale looking but more functional.

the big thing i find with all my conversion was weight! i put all kind of weight in my stuff antill i built my own metal loader.
there loader is out. but they sometime will take down something fromthe listing if they change something on upgrade something. i orderd a pump once and got a different one then the pic, when i emailed them they told me they where just about to take down the old pump, but i got mine before they could. and they sent me the new one, witch was better and the same price

According to this video, it seems to do OK with digging (although loose dirt).

But sometimes it could be due to operator not performing as good as the machine will allow (me think).

Yea, that's the newer all metal version. Most concerns were on the bruder conversions they do where they retain some of the plastic, so less weight.

I believe Magom's new FEL is 1/16 just like the Bruder one but in all metal instead. If that's the case there's quite a big difference in size & weight to Eagle's 870k. Borrowed this picture from Andy on here.
