Seems to work really well - never seen the solution with the Tamiya axle!
Did you need to narrow it?
How did you attach the Bruder wheels to the axle?

Re: new holland tractor
 

That looks pretty dang good. I'd like to see some more pics or the build or body/wheels off pics.

Re: new holland tractor
 

the axle has not been modified in any way
ill post a picture tonight showing how the wheels where modified a simple conversion really:)

Re: new holland tractor
 

pictures coming tonight showing where all parts have been attached to the tractor
the tractor doesnt have a frame everything is based around the original bruder toy to simplify the build as much as possible

Not to bad on the conversion. I watched the video it seems to drive and steer pretty smooth. On ur next one I would use smaller geared motors and electronics. That way u can have more room in model for other functions.

Re: new holland tractor
 

Nice!
How did you get the spline into the rims?
I see some hot glue, but can't see how you did it.

Re: new holland tractor
 

the picture tells the whole story.
the only thing holding everything in is the hot glue.

How's the broom holding together? How many times have you swept the place? :D

Re: new holland tractor
 

the broom is in the shop to replace the plastic gears tha finally broke after many hours of street sweeping

Re: new holland tractor
 

does the 4wd work? I've been wondering how to gear the axles to compensate for the different wheel sizes.

Re: new holland tractor
 

Looks like some major wiring work.

Re: new holland tractor
 

You can use gearing and the gear doctor german site sells an esc to compensate for the differences.

Hi hitachi,

Really like your build what type of motor,axle and speed controller did you use?? Looks great keep up the good work.

Re: new holland tractor
 

motor for this is a 540 type motor with 1:50 reduction unit
the axle is a standard truck axle no modifications.
speed controller is a generic crawler type.

Hi Hitachi,

I'm new to this game and was wondering what is ment by a 540 motor and a generic crawler type? I'm not sure what is available to us.
Thank you for your help
