1/12th RC Crawler Crane Dragline Plans
Hi, this is Tom Garing (tgglider) posting the Dragline configuration of my scratch built 1/12th scale RC model of the 1960s vintage 110 ton capacity P&H model 1015 crawler mounted crane. I have added a Dragline video to my Crane model Build You Tube channel @ the following URL link: https://youtu.be/lfCx3_LqwRE
Note that you can also view this model Last edited by tgglider; 04-10-2022 at 08:38 PM. Reason: Trying to add photos |

Re: 1/12th RC Crawler Crane Dragline Plans
Thanks Brel and Lil Giants,
Designing and building this model was a long learning journey, but worth it all. And yes, operating it is a real pleasure albeit a bit tricky with the Dragline as I have both the drag and lift line controls on the right stick. Have a GREAT DAY! Tom |

Re: 1/12th RC Crawler Crane Dragline Plans
There are times when having a 3rd arm like Riza in MIB International would sure come in handy.
Like running an RC dragline, or when needing to hold 2 parts while applying glue to the joint, or.... |

Re: 1/12th RC Crawler Crane Dragline Plans
Yep ddmckee54, a 3rd arm would be an interesting option, but I've learned to make due with 2 for 75 years!
Have a GREAT DAY! Tom |
