Found one of these for $150 so I figured I would pick one up. Got here yesterday and played with it for a while and I already cant stand the Radio. It's running off an 800 mah battery and most of the functions are pretty slow so I am gonna try a bigger battery to speed things up. Overall, its not a bad toy for the price but I have seen these things listed for $270:jaw: which is insane to me. Here is a couple pics.

Well, I did a couple mods to the hobby engine excavator last night. I was trying to figure out why it would not boom down any further than ground level so I tore it apart and found limit switches for the boom and dipper arm. Clipped the wires and now it actually digs a hole in soft dry soil.
