Letzte Wochenende war das Modell & Hobby Messe im Aeroseum im Göteborg im Schweden. Wir waren drei Aussteller mit 8 Meter Module und gesamten 25 Fahrzeuge.
This is my new Bagger, Volvo EC460B. Like my previous Volvo EC460, it is based on Herpa Liebherr 954 with a drivers cabin from Motorart. The digging is still controlled by fishing lines, but two of the motors are now placed inside the arm, saving a lot of space inside the excavator. I first tried a motor from Lemo-Solar for the tracks, but it was quite slow (and a bit expensive) so I use the good old Gizmo motors again.
The Lipo is 100 mAh and the Rx is Deltang Rx43d-4 with a relay to switch between digging and crawling.
This is my new Volvo FH. The model is from Herpa of course, but I made the chassi longer with one more axle, to look more like a Swedish truck for heavy loads. Later on, I will build a trailer to move my excavators.

The chassis is all new and made from U- and L-profiles 1 mm brass. The motors are 10x12 mm with metal 1:300 gears. The wheels and tracks are made from rubber timing belts and pulleys. I made the wheels somewhat bigger than original (13 vs 11 mm) to get better ground clearance, but I think it looks ok.
The upper part of the excavator is the original plastics. Fours motors are used for excavation: three planetary 1:700 (from microprecitiondrives) inside the arm and one Hobbyking servo behind the shovel, for opening. Three fishing lines, one spring and one rubber band is used get everything moving.
For turning, there is a 1:136 planetary motor with a 1:15 worm gear, and two biggger 0,5 module gear. The turning is a bit slow and not as smooth as I want, so maybe I will change this later.
Since most of the motors are inside the arm, there is a lot of space inside the excavator. The electronics is two Deltang and one ER100. Shovel and lights are on the same channel now, maybe I will work out some other way for this. The lipo is 180mAh and I hope that is enough. If not, I can easily add one more in parallel.

This is my second Bagger. It is based on the Herpa Liebherr, but the drivers cabin and some other details are changed to look more like a Volvo. It is painted with Tamiya colours, and the nice decals are made by a friend of mine.

This is a truck that I built earlier this year. It is a model of the school truck I drove 10 years ago, when I practised for my truck driving licence. (It was already quite old then!)
The cabin is from a Kibri kit, and the chassi and the Kipper is taken from two different Herpa trucks. HK 1,7 g servo for steering and Mikroantribe 1:120 for driving. The kipper and the trailer coupler are controlled by the same 1:700 motor via fishing line. The Lipo is 80 mAh, and the electronics was choosen before I knew of the Deltang Rx43d-(x), so its a 7ch Rx32d with two ER100 ESCs.
There is also a 4-axle trailer for the truck, built from a Herpa tailer, two dollys and some Plsticard. This is a normal combination in Sweden, with a max weight of 60 ton. The trailer has its own Rx, lipo and kippergetriebe, so it can be controlled separately. The truck uses Ch1-3 and the trailer Ch4.
The truck has no lights. Maybe I will add that, and replace the reciever to a Rx43d-32 to control it, but I am not sure if I want to. "Don't fix it if it's not broken"...

Ich komme aus Schweden und ich spreche nur ein bisschen Deutsch. Nicht so gut, entschuldigung! (Vielleicht besser in Englisch?)
Hier ist meine ferngesteuerte 1:87 Bagger, selbverständlich ein Volvo! Der EC210 ist aus Metal, und kommt aus Motorart, und ist viel kleiner als der Herpa 954 (20t gewicht gegen 50t). Die Bau war nicht so einfach, aber in eine Monate war er klar und jetzt funktionert er sehr gut.

Keine Licht, vielleicht später. Ich habe noch ein Kanal, aber wenig platz fur die Lichtmodul.
