My excavator nothing special.
Here is my excavator it is a 4200 from RC4WD. I bought it minus some hyd parts but I have replaced them and have it back up and running. It is set up with the newer 4 valve set up with RC4wd’s pump and motor. I set mine up with the forth valve as an unloder and mixed it to the pump for a soft start set up. I run it on7.2v and it runs fine other than the track speed being a little slow. I plan to put a 4:1 gear reducted motor on the pump so I can bump it back up to 12v. The gear reduction and 12V will accomplish two things I will be able to run the esc full throttle so I am not heating it up and the gear reduction will allow me to do that and start the pump under a load if needed. The slower pump speed and the unloader valve will make the excavator much smoother to operate.
