Be aware of that this largest pump from Magom has a like 300-500% higher flow-rate than their small pumps (which was their only offer earlier). The motor speed can be turned down to a certain degree, but would not be ideal in a small sized machine like the Magom/Bruder Cat excavator for example

good thing the kat is the size of the wedico 345

[mcCracken15]

I have ordered custom rams and i have the rc4wd valve block and my ex is not a small one for sure! I went for 1\14 but winged it on most. But it is proportional and not to out of scale. Its my first and i have changed a lot threw the past year. But i love building it! Im not sure i will be operating it as much as i will be tinkering and building new parts for it.

[mcCracken15]

My old pump is also the first one magom put a prv into. Which was the last one before the one you have. Im not sure how long it will last either. I havent even ran it and i pulled it apart to see if i can seperate the tank and the pump gear was eating into the housing i imagine it was from magom testing it

[Lil Giants]

Looking much better Mark
Find a bus bar yet?

[bigford]

Not yet. Pulling my hair out with the esc.
