Default Re: RC4WD Excavator

Not alot of time for tinkering these days, but something I did last night was connect my 5amp/30v power supply to the HK hoe with the volt setting @11v. Tx EPA @22%. The pump running thru the relief valve maxes out the 6amp meter in a flash! Either the stick or bucket moving by itself, the pump draws more than 6amps. Either the stick/bucket together or the boom by itself (two cyls to fill), the pump is drawing 5 to 5.5amp. All three valves flowing, 5amp draw...

Maybe tomorrow I'll try my 850 with its Graupner 600kv bl motor on the power supply for comparison.
