The Huina 1580 v4 (amzn.to/3O3hlXY), our favourite budget-premium RC excavator, is back and better than ever. After one of the linear actuators started clicking a while back, I had a few choices: replace with another OEM actuator and risk the same issue, replace everything with a hydraulic system, or go about halfway on price and strengthen everything but keep it electric-only.
I took the middle path and am really glad I did! The machine is now stronger, faster, more stable and able to eat more ground than ever! This video takes you through the upgrades and changes I've made. See our website for a more detailed write-up with photos and descriptions of each part of the upgrade process.
The Huina 1580 (or Huina 580) was already a great choice for a long-lasting scale model. With these changes it's even better - and you don't have to spend a lot to do it!
