What a super awesome Dozer in action. Thank you for all the inspiration to get a setup going in my yard!! I can only hope to add a machine of this calibur to my collection one day. Wonderful machine
Thank you, borrowed my neighbors dirt pile for that video, let her run the dozer after and will post it some day, kinda like a drunk dozer running around.
I'm looking at building one also, blade width 15" wide 12.5" high and about 28 " long. Hull will be a bit wider (8") for more room for power and going with narrow pads for more ground pressure and pushing power. Aiming for the 100 pound mark. Will be a 10:1 based on a D8 rear and front end of a A575 Superdozer 15:1 but that will be more like a If I have to make heavier for more traction I'll melt some lead and put extra weight in various places.
Polski Ogorki at 100 pounds you'll have no problem pushing, what are you using for motors to drive the tracks, I'm building a d6 cat wide track now, about 3/4 done, hope to post soon. good luck with your build.
lovely machine and operates very well.i would turn chains around you will get better grip and grocer pads will run cleaner. check full size machine. great video.
WOW! great job, Im trying to build my own so i know how much work went into that! i wish mine came out as good as that, if you dont mind me asking what did you use for drive motors?
I never finished my Caterpillar. Maybe after I finish my flat build I will continue on it. Have the motors, batteries and some electronics already. It will be close to scale but not as detailed as this. I hope it weighs over 150lbs so I can rip the ground with the tiny ripper lol.
Hi mr brewster...i want build one can tellme what electronics use and gear motor is great for this dozer and were buy plans for start one same You.i search and search plans and ont have look tnkz..
i have been watching theses videos for 2 years and would love too one of the theses. I think im gonna have to make my own my self lol. Im in the U.S. and can't get one no where.
Brian Russ if you're still looking RC4WD sells a very nice one for "cheap" which in the world of hydraulic RC $3750 is cheap. Actually... it's on sale I just bought one shipping included $3128.34 store.rc4wd.com/114-Scale-DXR2-Hydraulic-Earth-Dozer_p_4768.html it has to be a wire transfer from your bank no Credit Card or PayPal accepted though. The one you are looking at here is "priceless" with all the man hours involved. The RC4WD one is all metal beautifully detailed and 57 pounds. It's made in China by Eagle Machinery and I have not seen another like it mass produced. Most of the ones you see like this are homemade and like this guy spent countless hours building it.
would love to have the specs and dimensions on this dozer. I'm in the drawing phase of building my own. would appreciate any advise you or anyone else can give. This video is where I got my idea from lol. thanks and great work
+Tim Grisham ,i look at a lot of videos and try to scale it according to reference points, as body to track width, height of cab over hood , etc. I will be posting my cat d6n after the holidays
I used two gm windshield wiper motors, rated at 212 inch pounds of torque, kids power wheels battery. Good luck with your build. I just finish a cat d6 wide track soon to post that one.
