John Deere 200d LC 1/16 Ertl
 

Well since i can't afford an rc exc right now, will take awhile to save up, i have instead the burder exc and i now have the John Deere 200D LC 1/16th scale by Ertl:D it even has buttons for short engine sound and a light. When i can i plan to either scratch build a lowboy or purchase one and use these as load for it, here is some pics:D

Both of those are nice machines! would make good conversion pieces.

Very nice models you have ,there fun to convert to rc.:D
I helped my brother convert the J Deere exe over to rc last year.Have a pic at the all tracked equipment thread,need to take a updated pic of it sometime.
Good luck with them if you decide to convert them to rc:D
Ertl also makes this exe

Thanks,I may just try to convert on of these to rc

So on converting how much did it actually cost to make the JD Exe or any exe rc? Like what would one need etc,etc?

Thanks;
Mike

I think it was around 350 for all of the parts.Then the transmitter/reciever.
Used high torque metal gear servos converted to 360 for the screwdrives,tracks,turntable.Then a 7.2 battery pack ,on/off switch,8 feet signal wire.Lots of time and patience,lol
I haven't used them yet,these would be great for the hydro's http://www.firgelliauto.com/
