trying to fund a new excavator wondering.

[cosworth34677]

so i been wanting a metal r/c excavator for a while. i could make one at work but the part that i kind of dreading is the track frames and turn table... in fact i hate that part..... anyway i was just wondering how much i could get for a used hydraulic bruder cat excavtor? just trying to get a price range to ask for, not really looking to sell right now but was wondering. because i would want enough to at lease get the new one going like the valves and pump stuff like that.

sorry if this is in the wrong section

I like the idea of that bare bone excavator $1500 then slowly build the machine
better then $8000 up front

Isn't there a website that sells Bruder models converted into RC hydraulic machines? I'd look to see what one of those models costs, and then plan to sell yours for less. Hard to say what you could reasonably expect to get for yours. What do you have invested in it? Take that figure and discount it 25-50%, depending what shape it's in.

You can update your Bruder track frames and turntable from http://www.magomhrc.com/en/
Much less money than starting over with a full metal one.

i dont like turntables either and was going to buy one from the china cat and use it, just not sure if it will be strong enough for what ive got so far for tracks i found attachment chain made it 100times easier than self making an entire track.

there is a site that does sell the bruders already rc converted with hydros its maom hrc google that you'll find it i think there price was around 1100 after converting it form euros but that was without shipping.
