Hi All!

I have this beauty modified, mainly i filled the gaps, recoloured, outfit detail things. From technical point of view, i instantly added a second differential, and a re-tought crane, which has now improved movement range, looks more serious, and closes itself properly.    All functions work as before, i only installed a swith in the top of the cab, now the playability is much much better (search for the black antenne on the top), since you can easily reach it, not like the battery box in the original design.
I hope You enjoy it!

Really nice design.  Like the way you did the crane. Looks simple but makes the crane much better in proportion.

Thanks!  

It was challenging to find a geometry where it stays compact, and works smooth. Maybe the only disadvantage, that i had to install a clutch for the upper LA to increase the torque, so the speed is reduced, but still enjoyable with good lifting capacity.

That looks really impressive, I like it i do!

Nice mods!

I really like how much the panels around the switches does for the appearance. Everything else looks great too!

Thanks guys!

One hint: if anyone would replicate the crane solution, i suggest to use the new type of linear actuator, i tried the older one as well, but it didn't worked that fine.

Really nice work with this, I am going to look at doing the same sort of thing to mine.
