I'm about to do one of these myself. Love the zip ties in the Tracks idea! I wish I could've seen the actual build prOcess, I'm hoping to find it somewhere. Your build was really clean and tidy!
There are some guys who have videos on building theirs. It is a really simple build. If you have any questions on building let me know and I can help. Im also on facebook if you want to send a message there.
Hope you enjoy this video. This is more of a how to. If you have any questions let me know. I followed some of the RC forums on how to build this. I made my own modifications to suit what I wanted to do. If you want to buy the dozer itself check out this link amzn.to/2BJ7WPi
I just bought this model to hopefully build a full metal one in larger size. I am shooting for 200lbs in weight minimum. I have some 7.5" sprockets and Stainless steel track chains already. I hope I can build it soon.
@@rcchbuilds Thanks, I have a project I had started 3 years ago on my channel and will tear it down and build a dozer. I think a track loader may be more expensive than a dozer. I will check out your other videos for more info on radio / electronics side of builds.
For this build, I didn't have one at the time as it was my first build. But you can use the basic Futaba 5001 servo for the blade lift. the 360 servos you can use a continuous servo or make your own. Depends on your skill level. You can search continuous rotating servo on amazon or your local hobby shop or even Aliexpress and they will all work.
Another question how is the futaba servo for the blade up down movement mounted? Is it screwed in using the servo mounting tabs or hot glued or ?? THANKS
I glued it in with hot glue which was easier for my first try. I made a new dozer that is all 3d printed which has all the parts list and things required to make it on my other channel.
Great questions! so the servos for the drive is 2x Hitec HSR-1425CR Continuous Rotation Servo. for the blade servo I choose to use a regular servo 1x ANNIMOS Digital High Torque Servo 20KG Full Metal Gear, found on amazon amzn.to/36OWBL8. No ESC as there are no motors. Battery is a Gens ACE 1300Mah 7.4v Lipo. probably find it cheaper at your local hobby shop. hope that helps.
Hey, love the video!!! I'm building one myself, if you don't mind me asking, where did you get the linkage you used to hook the blade to the servo?? I've looked for them but I can't find any that has the tooth inset that fits the servo, so what brand did you use?? I'm new to the RC world, your video is what made me wanna start with this dozer!!! Keep them coming!!
sorry for the delayed response. I used an old threaded rod from an old RC plane I had. check out your local hobby shop and ask them for a 4-40 type rod to link on to a servo. you can bend it based on the length you need. the servo I am using is just a regular futaba S3003 servo. comes with all the head attachments to link to. let me know if that helps.
Good afternoon, do you have a email address or phone number where I can reach you? I'm trying to build one of these an I'm having a VERY HARD time getting my servos on the drive wheel.
Or I can give you my email an you can message me, I'm trying to get it together before my son comes back to my house next weekend so we can play with it.
Thanks I will look into that. I used some of that plastic powder mixed with a resin to fill in the mistake. I think the next step is to get a 3d printer and start making some new parts to make this a more versatile machine.
Thank you. I was wondering about the sprockets. Considerable shaving. Can't shave too much. Thank you soo much! Now I can finish build. 👍👏😊
Glad the video helped. Part 2 shows setting the transmitter and mixing.

i have watch this many times i like every time
😆 I will be making a new video in a few months with upgraded parts and design. Glad you enjoy it.

Do you have a build parts list for this as far as which servos radio model number etc?
for me the best comverção video of this magnificent d5 machine is very well explained, thanks for sharing with us💯💯💯
Thabk you.

Would love to see that build! Good luck!

I will be posting that video this week. I have been busy but will put it up for you. shooting for tuesday upload!
Haa! 😊👍 Very Creative!
Awesome job & video Brother.😊🤜🤛
Thank you so much 😀
Muchas gracias ✌
Como conectas los servos para que haga el giro?
The servos connect to the receiver. Then you create a mix for the tracks.
Nice work. Where in canada did you find that for $38
Local toy stores sell them. You can also find the at brudertoys.com
Have a build parts list for this by chance?

Very good video 👍
Thanks
Dad you’re the best dad best videos bye
Love you
☝☝☝☝☝☝ nice
Great video👍
Thanks
Thats awesome 👍👍👍
Thanks. There will be a part 2 to go over the radio and how to set it up.
@@RCConstructionHobby ill be watching, 👍👍
Hi what servos did you use to drive the the tracks
I used hitec continous rotating servos.
Thanks
Omg, that's bro! Great video
Part 2 will be about setup with the transmitter. Coming next week.
@@rcchbuilds much appreciated. Think I'm going to conquer one lol
posted a new video on setting up transmitter and receiver.
What servo do you use in D5? And What esc and battery?

Thanks for the wonderful tips. I will put some more slow mos for you. I know you need that extra help! because you are special! #1 Fan! LOL

To fix your booboo, look up 3D drawing pen
Thanks I will look into that. I used some of that plastic powder mixed with a resin to fill in the mistake. I think the next step is to get a 3d printer and start making some new parts to make this a more versatile machine.
