I have been waiting to do this video for almost 6 months.. and finally I was able to do it! Don’t worry! There was NO ACTUAL TOXiC WASTE! It is all a stage, and no environmental hazards were actually present at the time of this filming. We here at the RCSparks Studio take these types of situations very seriously when we are filming on location, and with such dangerous toxic chemicals. HAZMAT was standing by.
This video features the RC4WD 1/12 Scale Earth Digger 4200XL, and the 1/14 8×8 Armageddon Hydraulic Dump Truck. Both are fantastic machines. I have a lot of fun with them 🙂 I hope you enjoy these adventures. There is no limits to an imagination when you can use an RC!
I do have some upgrades done to the 1/12 Scale Earth Digger 4200XL Excavator. The Bucket is the Siberia Super Duty Bucket:http://bit.ly/1dUDLUm as well I installed the Earth Digger Excavator Brushless Track Upgrade: Kit http://bit.ly/NfXkfm
The Speed difference in the brushless system is AMAZiNG! Its twice as fast as before. The Upgrade included a new gear set, and motor. The Entire Drive Cog is also included and a rotational brushless connection for the turret. I am very pleased with the upgrade.. and I look forward to warmer days! The hydraulics run slowly in the cold weather. This is due to the Hydraulic fluid being thicker in the cold air. Thus, the Hydraulic pump has to work hard to keep the excavator arm going.
I run the excavator on a GensAce 8500mah 3s Lipo – High Output. The Run time is approximately 1/2 Hour.
