I normally wouldn't get a Conrad model, but this seems pretty nice.

what's the max height of the cc3800 model with all the boom sections in the box used?
Are you still able to buy anymore sections to get the tallest configuration or buy the jib?
I got LR1600 and LR1750 with all the sections to get max height in every single configuration. the additional sections are almost as expensive as another crane model ;(

Paul,
Congratulations on #001! What a beautiful model. I'm not crazy about the blue/yellow, but it looks good on that crane. I can't wait to see the customer liveries as they are developed.
Are the counterweight stones compatible with the Conrad AC500?

Dave,
Not tried swapping CW’s but in theory they should. I’ll have to try it!

Paul R The Conrad ones have the "twist" when you stack up all 7. These look a lot better. Not a big deal, though. I still love my AC500's.

Looking amazing. Now an AC700 in Mediaco livery is all we need...! Thanks Paul.

Paul,is Ainscough the only U.K. operator to have the AC 700,almost complete when on the road?As I have only seen pics of the Ainscough crane parked,with superlift attached and outriggers on.I can only think this would reduce transport costs,as it cuts out one artic.NMT and Quigley the crane is vehicle weight only.

I have seen photos of the Ainscough AC700 almost fully rigged for the road, which equates to 15.5t per axle I think, but of course they don't own one anymore. NMT appears to travel without the SSL so takes the weight down to about 13.7t per axle but as you say would require an extra truck and trailer for transport. I have also seen photos of Quigley being driven with SSL and outriggers attached. Paul R

Apart from the different colours, the cab is also different as this one has the older style cab. This one also has a different way to stow the hook for transport as well as some other smaller details. Paul R
