Hi guys,
My name is Erik and i live in The Netherlands.
As Eef allready mentioned i am a American Hoist nut...
Posted are some pics from my 5299 model scale 1:10th configured as a piledriver.
This is a typical Dutch set up of a piledriver in the 70 and 80's
By that time American was the most used crane in Holland
I want to build a working Delmag D30,thats a challenge i think.
The crane is build out of steel and weight about 50kg.
Its fully functional by remote.
It took my a lot of sweat building this model but i did it with much
joy and pleasure!
A special thank goes to Eef for his advise and humor during the construction of this model.
I hope you guys like it.
Stay tuned for more!
Best regards,Erik.
Thanks for watching,hope you like it.
Regards,Erik.
Thanks for the nice reactions,means a lot!

Beautiful workmanship! On the electric side, how many motors did you use and what voltage are you using? do you control it with a connected cable, bluetooth or RF?
