Hi Chris, looks good with the decals.

I understand that you now have found good oil and that the machine is working properly.
I use http://www.rc-point.nl/index.php?item=robbe-hydraulic-oil_-500-ml--1-33360021--pakket&action=article&group_id=20000270&aid=15282&lang=nl but those are per 500 ml and I expect with subsequent oil changes that I will need more so I search for more affordable oil.

I received my 4200XL a few days ago and it was packed in two boxes instead of one big box.
Assembling the machine was simple but during testing showed that there are a lot of settings of the RC transmitter not correct.
Do you too have problems with the settings of the RC transmitter.
Most problems are solved but there are still some settings I should be fine tuned.

The real digging has not yet started its also to cold outside.

Yeah I use this oil at the moment..
http://www.smithandallan.com/products/industrial-hydraulic/2458-smith-and-allan-hydraulic-oil-22-iso-22/
as far as the transmitter goes I have now set it up like standard iso sticks.

Buster

Standard Iso is that Euro style, main boom up/down and turning on the left stick and upper arm and bucket on the right stick?
I think about an oil filter in the return line but wonder what kind of filter is suitable to filter with sufficient flow.

Yeah they are after market stacks. Along with the spoiler, front bumper and rear mud guards. And i got them all imported from USA to here in the UK. I do have the original stacks but it would not be economical to post them to the to you surely?
