Looks like the outriggers might have a lot of play in them... otherwise, looks great

I ordered my cranes at the ConExpo 2014 show directly at the Link-Belt booth and I still have not seen them. I contacted Link-Belt back in March 2015 and they told me the models would start arriving in April 2015. Here it is July almost August and I still have no cranes…..

I'm not usually a whiner about little details but those outrigger beams look way to thin to me.

Thanks for the photos. Are the outriggers able to support the model "wheels off"?

Looks really good, but I'm wondering about the outriggers too, are they pretty string extended out or like the rtc80100? I will be getting one soon either way

Thanks for the photos! It would seem you're the first guy here to get one; so give us your review? Any loose or missing parts, etc.?

I like it, but I'm not very critical of today's models.
Three things that I noticed right away.
1. The cab door does not open.
2. I used the tool to spin the winch and when I pulled the tool out the center core came out of the drum, I just pushed it back in.
3. The rear counterweight sits low in the front. It's a push connection and I can't get it back out. I can see some kind of tabs on the counterweight
that go under the frame. I don't know if it's sitting in its place right or not. I can't get it off to look at it again.
