There is an audio problem in part of this video. I had a sizeable leak in my excavator. I show the disassembly to locate it and also how I had to create a crude tool to fit in between the pipes to tighten the screws.

Thank you so much!
Great videos, thanks for taking the time and posting. Any thoughts on Kabolite vs. Lesu quality after owning both for a bit? Any other excavators you would recommend? Trying to decide if the German ones are worth the premium if you don't have to deal with the failures.
The Kabolite is very reliable. The Lesu requires a lot of maintenance and repairs. It always leaks oil and I can't reach the screws in the metal piping to stop all the leaks. However, the difference between the Kabolite and Lesu is night and day. ua-cam.com/video/cXVAMhR533w/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/RN4aH0N5WwY/v-deo.html
Ain’t nothing wrong with a good crawler I got a good few, but also have a few good heavy machines in the construction world as you do!👍🏾
Amazing BIG heavy machine.Ture piece of art❤❤❤I love these.
I also got my LESU SK500 model few days ago. Your video is useful.
What’s the inside size? I have a lesu 945 3 arm machine I just got..
This page has the dimensions www.toucanhobby.com/products/ls-at-c0012-c-dzn1?_pos=7&_sid=dc237e04c&_ss=r
Badass video bro!!!
If the ET35 attachement is wider, and came with 6mm pins, it should fit if you "shim" on either side of the stick with bearings.
The ET35 mounting has a longer distance and it's wider.
I just saw your review on Toucan Hobby!
I can’t thank you enough for making this video and supplying a link for the perfect O ring. My navage stopped sucking & will try this.
I'm glad I could help you.

What kind of hydraulic oil do you use?
Badass video sir! Love it
Thank you!
Mannn! That's very professional knowledge, but does it comes a bigger bucket.....
It comes with a bigger bucket! I just show the smaller one in this video.
Excellent Jerome! Will you be at Cabin Fever?
I have cabin fever! I've taken up roller skating in the living room until it warms up outside again.
Great to see this video thanks!
Are those covers on the wrong sides? Vent holes meant to be in bottom?
The covers are on correctly. I looked in the assembly manual and that's how they recommend installing them. Weird!
@RCconstructionJP Very weird! Fair play
Hi . I'd love to buy this model but I'm put off by your problems! Did Lesu ever create a permanent fix for these track motor issues?
The replacement kit they sent me to replace the gears on both rear drives have fixed the problem. The main sun gear is a lot bigger. Since I have installed this kit I haven't had any more problems with the drives. The only continuous problem I have is the tiny 2 mm E-clips popping off the track pins holding the links together. I always have to replace some after playing for 3-4 hours. I have to say this is an awesome machine. I rarely play with any of my other excavators because this one is so much better it's in another league!
@RCconstructionJP Ooooh you have reignited my desire for this machine in that single message. I love the final drive design over other models for it's realism so was gutted to see you'd had problems but jf they have been resolved then that makes me excited again! I own a full size Volvo EC140B but it's not enough i need my 360 operating fix even when I'm in the house😁
@@RemFireball Wow! Do you do your own maintenance and does it need maintenance often? ua-cam.com/video/RN4aH0N5WwY/v-deo.htmlsi=UXV7c9pqaTviDzz5
@@RCconstructionJP Yes the mechanical work is no issue and it's very reliable in that sense but I'm struggling with the electrical side of things! I have an intermittent can bus communication issue which is taking lots of figuring out! Refusing to give up just yet however!
@ If I leave my excavator outside in the cold over night it moves very slow the next day. Does your real excavator move slowly if it's cold outside?
Hi Jerome, Thinking about getting the 3 arm kit. Are you happy with the hydraulics? They seem to be much better than the hydraulic version from double e! It runs fairly smooth from what i can tell. Thanks Benrie
Hey Benrie, I like the three arm hydraulic kit a lot. It gives me the option of digging close to the excavator or reaching far out to dig at a distance. The hydraulics and electronics are great. Best of all it's a drop in assembly with very little modification needed. I would recommend also buying the upgraded slew ring to remove the excess play in the system. I did not want to use anything from Double E because the original electronics in the excavator were so terrible it was unusable. ua-cam.com/video/tQAvD_QKM4g/v-deo.htmlsi=WncNpbpvF8shT2Aa
@ thanks for your reply. Helps a lot. Very impressed with your SK500. Such a nice machine and runs so smooth. For me it’s the Volvo now but hoping to own one of the better and bigger rigs one day :-)
Brilliant, thank you!
Be sure to watch the updated video ua-cam.com/video/Wwurn9AbcCk/v-deo.html
Thank you for the tip. For $100 you'd think they'd include a gasket. I bought mine today. No suction. Now I know why. I just wrapped a thin elastic around it twice.
If you contact them they will send you another base quickly for one year. Make sure you watch the video I made two days ago with a better solution. It shows as a link at the end of this video.
mine just says Connecting to the server... for HOURS
You may have to uninstall it and install it again.
thank you very much, you are very kind, I just bought the lesu 945 three arms from tucanhobby rc😂😉👍
Toucan Hobby provides excellent customer service. I have worked with them many times when I had problems!
Beautiful video, thanks but where did you get the steel syringe? Could you send me the link? 😊
There are two links in the video description. Click where it says more.
Debating between this one and the XDRC 945. Enjoying the videos!
Would you buy the k963 again? I'm torn between the k963 or the DXR2 bulldozer.
I would definitely buy it again. It's very reliable and fun to use. It's also not as big and heavy as the bulldozer and half the price. I 3D printed a shovel to make mine a bulldozer too. ua-cam.com/video/M1wIOUsnXb8/v-deo.html
Hey thanks! I'm going to go with the k963 for now, one day I'll get a good dozer. Great videos also
Nice. I did the APK40 hydraulic conversion to my Volvo. It’s so smooth, I’m really happy with it.
Nice! Do you like your Volvo better than your JDM 4200?
@ like them the same but the JDM is very powerful. Rips anything out the ground. I feel like it’s very underrated. It’s not pretty but it digs.
Thank You !!!

@ Thank You Again!
Hai risolto un grosso problema dovuto alla lentezza della rotazione...dovresti fare questa modifica..perché vorrei una rotazione più veloce..la vorrei acquistare grazie
Nice machine, I'm considering adding 1 to the fleet.
It's one of my favorites and very useful. Very reliable too!
Thank you so much for sharing this fix! My son is so happy to see his navage machine working again!
ua-cam.com/video/Wwurn9AbcCk/v-deo.html
Great video.
Nice job, Way better
Mine stopped the suction and its when I needed it the most! It sucks my finger, but it doesn't suck the water.
I'm not sure why that is. I haven't experienced that.
I had this problem yesterday. I had the nozzles pushed too far in my nose and it blocked the flow. I pulled it back a little bit and the suction began again. You may also try some different size nose pillows for a better fit.
ua-cam.com/video/Wwurn9AbcCk/v-deo.html
Hello thank you for videos. Is the three arm conversion worth it?
It was worth it to me. I didn't use this one any more because I bought two other hydraulic excavators. I like this conversion because everything was one assembly that I bolted in. Very easy to do. The other kits needed all the parts to be assembled and a lot of the parts are made from the company that made the Volvo excavator. Their parts are terrible. ua-cam.com/video/ZfBZvcOlBEE/v-deo.html
nice model! did the Kobelco decals come with it or did you have to find them separtely?
The model came with a full set of Kobelco and Aoue decals with enough to fill the machine twice for each label.
@@RCconstructionJP ok thx! I hope the final drive problems have subsided.
Can you not use original boom and hardware when doing the hydraulic conversion??
No, this conversion kit came as one complete assembly. Since the original had two arms and this one has three arms, the hydraulic cylinders wouldn't fit and the big arm would not mount in the base. It would be better to buy a two arm upgrade kit and build the hydraulics piece by piece if that's what you want. I looked at the two arm kits and did not think they were as good.
I have been watching your channel pretty closely because I have the same machine. I got mine in late August of 2024. I think mine came with better final drive gears. I have been slowly replacing my track pin E clips with the black ones that you suggested from Amazon. I have a grapple atachment and have dug with it and probably have less than 10 hrs on mine and have had to replace a few screws on the cosmetic parts. Mine has been really good thus far and hope yours is now on. Please keep us posted!
I'm glad you're not having any problems. Make sure you watch the video with the servo end point adjustments. I still have to replace the track E clips periodically. But the black ones stay on longer than the original ones. ua-cam.com/video/Lyd-R6Fs_64/v-deo.html
I think the link to the Toucanhobby website is invalid. Whats the correct link ?
It's no longer on Toucan's site. The link to Oliver Hobby works.
Vieo hay ủng hộ nhau nhé , tôi việt nam😊
How u going to use to excavators at the same time off that controller. You have to turn one machine off then turn one one. Lol😂 waste of time bro. U want a tandem ex24 controller. Check check it out bra
My transmitter works great. I only use one machine at a time.
Why didn't u run the warning lights wire inside cab .
So it's electric and your making it hydraulic. Why didn't u just buy the hydraulic version. 3 arm is crap to use and have to upgrade controller as well. Mine has hydraulic bucket detachable an all did mine last year from the hydraulic version good luck
I would never pay for a Double EE excavator again. Their electronics are crap. I had this excavator sitting around for a couple years and saw an upgrade that looked fun to do with something different. The three arms work well and I like using it.
Saya jugak ingin menukar nya ke hydrolik . Asal nya dc moto, tetap saya perlu beli set remote control sahaja, vale dan pump nya saya mebuatnya sendiri dengan cara saya sendiri, sebabnya saya memang biasa membaikpulih excavator sebenar,, cuma saya beli kan anak yang baru usia 2tahun 8 bulan agar dia tidak selalu ikut saya melakukan kerja sebanar di kebun ,, saya belikan iya 1 dan saya satu, cuma agak berat , dan lebih berat iya la trucks pengangkut tanah ,,
Great video thanks for sharing
A regular boom kit be cool to
Its a nice bit of kit but dont ask why but i hate triple boom excavators unless it a high reach demolition machine i want the hydraulic regular boom
This was the only kit I found that didn't use Double E components. The components is this excavator were the worst and I had to replace all of them.
Hi , how long will the tracks last in sand? It makes way more miles than an excavator and it seems to me some simple alloy. Do you keep the tracks lubed? Thank you
I'm not sure how long they will last in sand. I've taken it to the beach three times. I don't see any wear or stress on the tracks from sand so far.
Back in the '80s, I built an Ace RC radio from a kit, including the servos. Back then, you could buy replacement pots and wipers for the servos, which were the typical wear components. Watching this made me think back to those times.
Not looking forward to mine going wrong
