Hi sd90, Sorry, I can't offer you any help personally, as I don't have a Terex C8800 (so I have no experience with it). However, did you check out the review on Cranes, Etc.? They have one configured with the main boom (and ballast carrier), and their review might tell you what you need to know. Today, I was rigging my Senneboggen 5500 with just a long main boom, and I practically lived on that site to figure out what to do. http://www.cranesetc.co.uk/library/conradreviews/2735/2735review.htmHope it helps.

sd90, in the real world the CC8800 is only ever configured with the back mast on, if you download the pdf data sheet it will show all configurations, but I suppose in the world of 1:50 scale it would be possible to just remove the backmast, pendants and flying bridle, reattach pendants to Aframe to main boom head. Hope that helps.

Steve B I beg to differ Steve.... the config without Derrick is SH. It can have from 36 to 66 metres and is good for 1,011 tonnes. [img ][/img] If you only do what you've always done, you will only get what you always got!

Wouldn't you need the super lift to get 1,000 tons?

Stand corrected Mark, was just going off some old pdf files from years ago. BTW Mark is your CC8800 a factory version or have you resprayed it, either way stunning model, wanted one myself in Sarens, but missed out so resprayed my own CC8800.

Thanks Mark for the info, interesting You're right, the model is a CC 8800... so we could use more info actually on the original 1250 ton crane, a complete pdf would be welcome.

So the model is just an 8800? What differentiates the 8800-1? More counterweight/ different tray?

The main differences between the Demag / Terex CC 8800 & CC 8800 i can think of are the following:
1. The CC 8800-1 main boom sections are sligthly larger in dimension then that of the CC 8800.
2 .The CC 8800-1 have more sheeves on the boomhead and on the hookblock, since it have a maximum lifting capacity of 1600 metric ton . The CC 8800 is " only " a 1250 metric ton crane.
3. The CC 8800-1 have a longer derrick boom then the CC 8800 .Therefore a larger superlift ballast radius can be used if needed compared to then the CC 8800.
4. The CC 8800-1 have a maximum of 295 ton superstructure ballast + 60 ton central ballast . The CC 8800 have a maximum of 280 ton superstructure ballast + 100 ton central ballast.
5. The CC 8800-1 under carriage components have been reinforced and are in general sligthly heavier, compared to the same components of the CC 8800.
