For those of you who have read most of the posts on other forums, please bare with me

I bought this used from another member on the Norwegian forum (www.rclastebil.no). The hydraulics were not installed correctly, but it was easy to fix. Luckily I had some spare tubing laying at home. It came with a Servonaut M220 ESC and a separate ESC (30 AMPS) for the pump).

First pic. It was so clean and shiny

The first upgrade was a SMT and ML4 from Servonaut.

PIs from the 2010- spring cleaning





Then I built a styrene cab. It's black because I had planned to change the color of the loader.



Due to sand and dirt the pumpmotor caught fire. I replaced it with a stock Tamiya slivercan to save some money



The next modification was made to the undercarriage. If often got filled with sand while driving, making the loader loose its belts.









The SMT was replaced by a SMX

New hitch



More lights were added. It's dark most of the day in Norway during the winter





More scale details added











Under the hood



I had to move the extra front lights. The tended to light the sky instead of the ground









Better tipping angle



It's boring only having a bucket. I made these forks from spare metal laying around. They are quite strong.
