Instead of buying the overpriced Liebherr I decided to make my own giant crawler crane. It's just a generic one, not based on a specific model.

- Three XL motors in the bottom for left/right drive, and rotation of upper structure.
- Three L motors above the turntable: raising long boom, raising upper boom, winch.
- Up to about 2.2 meter.
- Driving is a bit sluggish and the lower boom has the tendency to move a bit sideways when turning. Apart from that it works suprisingly well (given that I had never build something close to this size).
 
(I'm well aware my camera is pretty bad, sorry for that).

Goodness, it be a massive build! *oh2*

 

I suppose that parts-wise this one might be close to the Liebherr set? Anyways, an astounding job! :pir-thumb:

Thanks. I didn't count but it's certainly a lot more parts than the Liebherr.
