Default rc excavator large 50 ton plan 1/16 scale

I have a free plan for building RC excavator including hydraulics if anyone wants a copy send me your email and I will send a copy free with tile print sheets and cad drawings it includes full-size scale drawings of all parts.And if anyone can help with where to get parts for the build it might help each other.I.E if you are going to use rubber tracks cheap way is to use a rubber car cam belt as it has molded teeth for cam pulley.The excavator can be made of metal,
plywood or a mix of both as there are parts under load that will need to be metal for strength

Welcome Englishbiker!


I buy most of my parts on Ebay, Amazon or AliExpress. For example, you can find a rubber cam belt like you describe here:
- https://www.ebay.com/itm/GATES-TIMIN...IAAOSwFdtXxad8

And you can get the gears as well:

Not a bad price fir a kit, IF it comes COMPLETE. Nowhere in the description does it say, or picture the hydraulic pump & valve bank(s), as included with the kit.
