Re: LESU Cat 374 build log/progress

Just been busy and too lazy to post updates.
If you have Facebook there is a group on there for the LESU machines.

Try looking for the group called "Lesu excavator and wheel loader"

Re: LESU Cat 374 build log/progress

Yeah I saw that. He must have a new updated version. I noticed he mentioned his track/chain frames had extra metal in them for weight.

Re: Newbie Scratch Build - D575A Dozer

The more photos the better! I also enjoy text. I love reading about how people make their own models and how they get around/solve problems along the way.

Re: LESU Cat 374 build log/progress

So I bought a FrSky radio. An X-lite S. I really miss having the OpenTX software on my old radio and it's a smaller, more compact size. It will be fun setting it up.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane

I saw on another forum that somebody used a teflon tape between the telescoping sections for lower friction when telescoping the sections.
