Metal Excavator - Magom HRC MG1.4

Post by Tankbear »

Recently treated myself to this RC model. It comes in various versions of completion but I picked the full metal unit and hydraulic system for it which left me with adding electronics, radio, final assambly and painting.

So here's some pictures

I saw the eagle dozer video and looks ace. Magomhrc are also doing a tracked bucket dozer thing according to they Facebook page but details are slim. :'(

Probably after a tipper truck next. Had a little play wth the Hercules 8x8 tipper which Forgebear is selling and that is very nice, although I might change the cab to a man or daf.

Yeah been sorting the electrics recently so no real updates. I've assembled the boom arm and bits and gave a few more coats of orange paint. At weekend wet & dry paint and started clear coat but ran out of clear coat. Then got more but weather meant I couldn't carry on.

So finish clear coat, attach boom to main structure and plumb up hydraulic pipes then it should be ready for maiden voyage.

Instructions :haha: not existing 8O I think self priming as no bleed valve so should be fun finding out.

And yes going through spray paint tins used 5 tins of orange and not even started on the main body yet.

Stay tooned video soon.
