Friends..is there anyone to share some ideas and pics about excavators...?
all my models are paper and working...
backhoe...
here is the video...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R38SV0wZMxs
Wow excellent work! I am quite speechless!
Wow that's awesome!
I've only built excavators out of Lego Technic and Power Functions ;D
This is very interesting... {:)} I've always thought of building something like the Rover (used in Mission Mars).
Linear Actuators work great and are a substitute to hydraulic/pneumatic actuators.
I'll think about building something like this (after my X std boards) -

In the picture above, standard servos and acrylic glass is used.
Imagine using High Voltage Servos and Carbon Fiber !!! (:|~
and maybe using an Android Phone + Java app to control it.
That will take a lot of time, effort (and money :P )
sir..its far beyond imagination...and inspiring..its a nice machine...i hope we will get ample of ideas from here from now...thanks for the confiuration..but i have some limitations here, as i do not have a professional radio with me..all my efforts are based on self made radio,mostly on FM and SW..i hope i will buy a good radio set, by saving some money from my modeling works..from your picture i can see its too easy to make a craft by using professional servos..now i am working for the Naval academy, to make a big UAV, with all features..so all possible ideas are welcome, for a great realization of my craft...thank you all...for the great inspiration...have a nice time...
here is some interesting Rc Hydraulic Excavators videos..
