[MOC][MOD]Crawler Crane, my modification of 42042 set

[legosamigos]

Hello Eurobrickers!

Today I would like to show you my modification of 42042 set. When I saw this set, I thought: “must have”, so I bought it. Unfortunately I don`t like this version, so I built my own creation. I wanted to motorize a cabin by PF, but I have not enough space to put one more a motor and 4th IR receiver. Weight of crawler crane it is almost 2.2 kg

Power Functions:

2 x PF L motor

4 x PF M motor

2 x PF battery box

3 x PF IR receiver

3 x PF IR remote control

1 x PF extension wire 20 cm

Great looking crane. Did you test maximum lifting weight?

Nice crane. I'm interested in the boom design if you have some better close ups of that to post.
