1/14 RC Hydraulic Bulldozer Earth Dozer DXR2 RC4WD - Unboxing, Setup and Programming 

Thank you bob for this awesome video, I enjoy every second of it. Rc4wd should hire you to program all their heavy equipments . Nobody knows mixing better than you do. Keep on the good work.

Dude you explain things so incredibly well! It's nicely detailed but not overwhelming to us newbies. Your voice is really calming as well haha! Thank you so much!

Wells Fargo: Hello Mr. Christianson, your mortgage is late, may I ask why? ME: It's Bob at Hobbyconcepts fault.

Thank you so much for making this tutorial I finally have my dozer working correctly now, You make it very easy and straight forward! Great channel

That is one beast of an RC thank you Bob for posting this

Wow super cool. You do an amazing job! Thanks for you time and knowledge!

friend, I've been trying to configure the address of my bruder d11 for months, I did it for me and I did not know how to do the mix of the directional controls and adjustments well and you have clarified my ideas and saved my skin, I thank you a thousand for your tutorial and That you know you have one more subscriber and a new fan, I send you greetings from Malaga Spain, strong hugs friend

I changed out the esc and put in a sabertooth esc and installed a radiator with fan for the hydraulics. I have this dozer about 4 year's and still have fun with it.

Glad to hear you’ll be looking into a sound module also... look forward to the next video!

great machine... I love using it. It moves dirt like says it does with no problem.

Awesome Bulldozer it looks so real !!!

Those are beast dozers..dig the ground up like a champ!

Awesome looking dozer.

Love your videos! Thanks! As Allways very informative!

Mr.BoB strikes again! Beautiful video! That's insane 😳 👏

Thanks for the video. Sure helped me set my dozer up.

Just ordered one. The one stick drive is mint

Thanks for sharing your programing knowledge!! I just installed the Servonaut M211 speed controller in mine but it's great for people to know it's not required. You are growing quite the collection!! My next big one is going to be the 360L for sure.

Thanks for the great information. Most people I spoke to said we need a new ESC to do what you did on mixing!

What a beast. Great video thanks for the info.

Beautiful Dozer😍👍👍👍💯

Wow its amazing i love it !!

Great video again Bob.. I just wish I could afford one myself.!

amazing model!

Thank you very much for your good explanations, it works well on my trax

Nice one Bob!

Thanks Bob you just did everything i wanted to do to my dozer and was not surre how to it . Love the video's

THANKS. Your channel is very informative and entertaining. Can't wait to watch your content. Don't even own any of the things you show. Way out of my skill level and price range.

What a thoroughly excellent video! I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, but a real Cat D10T is set up exactly as you have done, where the driving is controlled by the left joystick, and the blade movements are controlled by the right one. I'm going to set up my DXR2 just this way. Thanks!

Another great video 👌🏽🤙🏽

I'm excited to see this series. See what all you do with it. I want one of these soo bad!!

That thing is a beast

Great stuff.

Great video it helped me out thank you!

Thank you Bob, I have two of these dozers we use on our float for parades. I was just about to install Sabertooth motor controllers to enable on stick travel operation, I will try the mixing. I also had tried to mix the pump to the hydraulic operation, but not the way you demonstrated. So, that is today's exercise. One note: if you want to run this for several hours, you may want to open the final drive cap and loctite the screws holding the drive cap and the internal plate that has countersunk screws. That failed on one of our dozers and it destroyed the final drive planetary. Had to buy two replacement final drives from Eagle and that was a $500 repair. Also, there is a guy in Austalia that tig welds up new blades that are correct for this dozer. He also builds the correct handrails.

Love your videos Bob especially those grand hauliers ones and tech advice and your knowledge well presented as always.thats a monster get that on a trailer haha tc be safe

Thanks for your hreat tutorial Bob its really helpful and I appreciated you're a legend.Cheers

A little custom metal working and a cordless mower, you could mow the yard from inside the house. I think this is the first time I have seen someone try and tow a car with one.

Love your vids like how you show how to program the controller to make it better to operate even though i will never be able to afford things like this I would cut of both legs for this dozer and a excavator..... I've been watching videos like this for awhile I just sit here and drool ...... 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Nice to your video

I have been watching videos of RC construction vehicles for years and that crawler Tractor is by far my favorite. if I had to pick one RC that I wanted the most that would be it> I used to operate Heavy Equipment when I was in the Army and again when I was in the Navy and the one piece of equipment I spent the most time on was a Crawler Tractor. The first one I ever operated was a D7F that originated from Stockton CA about 13 miles from where I was born and raised and it was in Germany Out of all places. Felt like I had a piece of home with me so far away from home. I found the paperwork and original operators manual while replacing the seat one cold winter day. When I was in Iraq I got an upgrade to a D7G. never found where that one originated from, but it was nice compared to the old F model. I grew up running equipment for the Family business. I've been with the Railroad here in California for quite some time now and in about 6 years or so I will be retiring. I really want to own that Dozer when I do. Working on my pilots certificate now so it will be a while. Still waiting for my Grand Hauler to get here. I also drove truck for a while after the military. Sure miss being on and in the equipment. Great video. Sure wish those rascals didn't cost so much. I always wanted to run the Excavators but never did get the chance. Ran Dozer mostly and a lot of backhoe for the family so I imagine the excavator would of been second nature and a ton more power. I enjoyed the excavator video also.I sure do get a lot out of your videos. Thank you.

I kinda want to get my hands on one of these, a Toyan inline twin, and combining the two. I just wonder if I can find hydraulic motors small enough to drive the tracks with. If I can, I'm thinking the engine will be attached to a helicopter governor and set to either idle or maintain a given speed, be belted to the hydraulic pump, and then everything else on the machine is run hydraulically.

All full size Bulldozers use forward for down and backwards for up on the controls. I don’t believe I could have worked out how to change those controls around. Good on you.

Thanks for Another awesome video and your methodical approach to programming and mixing is great 👍🏻

I have one there awesome!

Yes sir that's on my list

Awesome video, really enjoyed it !!!!!

Straordinario. Mi piace moltissimo.......

Thanks you for this I will do the same om my dozer

Thanks for this well put together video with the DXR2 Dozer, yes I hated the way it came programed with each track on separate sticks, very hard to operate. I found your video very easy to understand how to reprogram it so it works like the real deal? After doing that I wanted to use my new Radiomaster TX16S open TX radio and this helped a lot for the mixing, BUT with an open TX system the mixing is way more complex because you can do so much more with and Radio using Open TX system. You know I would like to see a video using an open TX system and programming to work with the Beier Sound module USM-RC-2, especially using a rotary knob to control the module volume??

Ver informative enjoyed the video. Look forward to more of these. I really like these vehicles. I never had any interest in R/C until I saw these construction models. Worried about their durability though

Years back IMC out of Tennessee or Kentucky was supposed to build a 1/16th RC Cat D11N with a gasoline V4 engine, but they took orders and allot peoples money and then went bankrupt. Would have been an amazing machine and has never been copied.

Any plans on doing a review on the Rc4wd wheel loader? Bulldozer and excavator are great thank you!

Warming the oil helps.

rc truck buldoser video excelente

Hello this video its amazing i like this, but i have a question this bulldozer is a similar scale a d10t or d9l in real machine ?

I have an equal, it is amazing

You need to check the bolts on the drive sprockets mine were loose I put a light kit in mine it was a real pain to do but worth it

Thanks the programming help new dozer works much better. Not sure where the rc shop here in northern Alberta Canada got it. I believe supplier in China. Took 1.1/2 months to come in. Supposed to be new version came with lights and sound installed. Same backwards upside down programming. The pump ch5 slaved to blade and ripper very slow and weak. I checked the endpoint on ch5 it was preset at 60percent. I bumped it to 80 didn’t make much gain. And then seem like pump was running to hard when turned on. So I backed it off to 70. Any thoughts on more program tips on these machines and radios like which better setting for trim sub trim or trim?

Best video on operating it! Is this from Grumalu?

I wish that you would become a dealer with these bulldozers.

Thank You very much for this lerning video. It was so clear to understand mixing channel options. So where did You find battery and charger, because in ebay all selling models are without batteyr and charger. i\It is required 3s 11.1 v Li-Po battery but capacuty is unnown to last more as it possible for this heavy machine. I also wnated to know how long does it last the 5000 Mah battery? What charger do You use?

I tool heavy equipment to work dozens like my grandfather but there is no work in my home town area for such so I'm gonna have to get something like this

I trying to figure out changing speed controller wiring so both tracks work off left stick I’ve followed your instructions on the controller. But now stuck with what wires to change.

Mr.bob good evening 🙏 sir! I have a question 🤔 about the hydraulic pump! Can you set up your endpoints to 50 to 100% to make your hydraulic functions operate alittle faster???? Without running the pump????

Al quiring would be proud

Missing your videos Bob, hope all is well. Take care.

You’re awesome Bob!I just received my D9 and my 360 and my dumper from RC4WD all at the same time. A lot of work to do! I noticed that I had to flush The system.There was a lot of metal shavings. ordered a filter,oil cooler,lights. Do they make stainless steel tracks for the dozer?

Dumb question here, im buying the batteries separately for mine andbi dont know what style plug end i need to go with the provided end on the dozer? Thank you

hi bob . i have a GT light system pro euro version. wen connected i only have steering everything works on the rite stick . but throttle wont set up . shift servo is moving on the left side but not the throttle. iv tryed 2 different control's but still the same thing is happening. i set up just like you did on your GT pro . and one side worked but not the other side only one of the channels connected on the left an thats the shift servo . is there anything im doing wrong . its doing my head in so much . that i nearly want to go buy the mfc 03

Nice Dozer! I've never used hydraulic rc vehicles before. Are they reliable and are they complicated to maintain etc? thanks

Hi, cool ass info very helpful...

Hey there absolutely love your youtube videos.. You got the most informative content out there 100% Quick question, what battery voltage are you using for your Dozer and Excavators? 7.4v or 11.1v

What a solid piece of machinery. I’ll be getting mine here very soon 😁.

What type of oil do you use and where do I buy it from?

I have a question. I followed the instructions perfectly, but when I go forward, the dozer turns. And when I turn, it goes straight. Which makes no sense. So I set channel 4 back to normal instead of reverse, and it appears to have fixed it. Is it possible that the right track, or track 4 was wired in reverse at the factory? I still need to try it properly on the ground.

Also it would appear it got shipped with firmware 1.02 Jan 2018. Should I update to the latest 2020 V2.0.0.68? If I do, will I lose all my settings?

I will never own that machine only because there is no way I would want to hear that hydraulic pump screaming while working. I doubt a sound module on full volume would drown it out. Besides that Bob, love your channel and love your work.

HI, HOW CAN HAVE ONE OF THAT

where do you buy these at

Is it cold proof or water resistant?? Thinking of plowing show from the inside of my house with it. Seriously…

What all extremely did you have buy with the 1/14 Scale DXR2 Hydraulic Earth Dozer? I want to know cause I want to buy one

So which ones are the speed controls extreme detail but default at the most important part which ones are the speed controls…

@19:08 Not super familiar with this brand of Remote ( or rather the OS running on it ) since I'm more of a former -OpenTX- / current *_EdgeTX_* person. Maybe it's because of the slow reaction time of the screen but it looks like CH5 is _proportionally_ tied to CH1/2? Obviously if you don't crank the Stick of CH1/2 to the max then CH5 won't run at full power either ( as compared to manually triggering it ). Does the OS support the ability to crank CH5 to its MAX value regardless of CH1/2's position ( well obviously only once they come out of their dead zones )? 🤔 Doing it like that is how I'd probably set it up on my *_FrSky_*_ Horus X12S_

I just got this dozer and was following the setup controls to set the radio in the same manner as in the video. I was able to get the blade and ripper to operate as in the video however the forward/reverse and turning controls are on the wrong axis (turning on the y axis and forward reverse on x), checked my programming multiple times and it appears to be the same as in the video. Any help would be appreciated.

I just ordered one of these and online it shows optional parts as the light kit and speaker does it come with it already from rc4wd?

Very cool machine. Is it possible to setup a mix so that moving the blade automatically toggles the hydraulic motor on and then off when you stop moving the blade?

I used your video to set my dozer up the same way you did I love how it operates however first run about ten minutes in my driver side motor stopped running, I unplugged it for a few minutes and tried again it ran for a few minutes then shut down again. I went back and fourth with rc4wd for 3 months trying to resolve the issue settled on a replacement motor. I put it in it ran great for about two batteries then the other side did the same thing instead of dealing with rc4wd I’m looking at upgrading the motors do you have any suggestions or maybe something I overlooked? I set it up exactly like you showed in the video thanks.

Oh! so nice!!!. What if you put some EXPOnential in the functions, to make track and blade scale speed?. Blade looks like it's got too much movement amplitude too; END POINTS ???.

Hi Bob, is this dozer also available cheaper, for example as a kit? Thank you and stay healthy.

Hi, Im looking for a King Hauler, can you help? How many separate parts do I need for a king hauler. Is it even still a good choice? I know that I need an electronic speed control, but it's discontinued, is there a replacement? What Servo do you recommend? What controller should I get? What battery and charger should I get? is there a semi truck that is less work, like all the "parts" that come with it. Or something less complicated?

Going to need a cupule more stimulus checks before I can do one of these

Hey Bob were where you 3 year's ago. I could have save some money. There was nobody doing this at all.

Just purchased one for my birthday, do you have first start procedure? And can you by oil for hyd system at lower price? Best jon

Bob does it come with a speaker already installed. Thinking of installing Beier SFR-1

It is rather incomplete, switching connectors on the receiver should be shown, where the connectors in #3,4 will go? One of mine ESC's is plugged in the sound unit, how would that work? Thanks for clarifying this.

would like to purchase some products are you going to sell to australia

Great video. Would this work on the excavator tracks using to roller switches on top left n right on controller?

want to order one. can u pls give me specs?

Love this machine! Dont like the cost though. You could buy a car for what this costs. Great video keep them coming.
