I plan on using the same motors that I used in the 777 , two for the track drives and one for the swing.


I will soon start a build thread on the 1/12 PC1800 front shovel....sorry everyone for being out of touch for a while

Thanks.....the truck with the big battery in it is just over 100lbs (battery is about 10lbs)

Yes I have done some tests, here is a link to all my vids....

hello ive just been looking over your build nice job. I'm not trying to tell you what to do but I would like to make a suggestion on your drive train chain. From your vid I could not really see a idler pulley. How ever I did think I seen a bushing. My suggestion is this replace the what appeared to be nylon with bronze this way you can cut a grove for chain to follow in and it will last three times as long almost maintenance free. Bronze is also called oil in pregnanted brass. I hope I have not affended you only making a friendly suggestion that's all
