Re: Bruder small Cat conversion
I DON'T know if the small N20 gear motors would be sufficient for this build or not. :confused: If the servo idea doesn't pan out, perhaps I'll attempt it with a couple of them. I don't even have a...

Re: Bruder small Cat conversion
After looking at a few of his vids, I found the info for his builds. There's an internal RECHARGEABLE battery pack in his :) I LIKE that idea.

Re: Bruder small Cat conversion
Do you have pictures of how & where the battery mounts in it? I'm struggling trying to figure out how to put the battery pack in it, while including the cab interior.

Re: Bruder small Cat conversion
Just a few more mods to do on the tracks, & then it'll be time to test it out. I know being plastic if WON't be durable, or powerful enough to push much of anything, but it'll still be fun.
