Hi all, just testing the water here.

I've seen some JCB digger type toys that are radio controlled, they
have caterpillar tracks so seem ideal for robotics type applications.

The remote has 4 controls, so 2 for forwards, backwards and steering
then the other 2 for digger bit.

I've not got a picture but done a quick search on ebay to see and
found a photo of something similar

), although the remote control looks different.

They also have bulldozers (3 channel remote) and tipper trucks ( 3
channel remote), I think I can mix a match what I buy, I have to buy
10 of them in the go or more.

I wouldn't say they are dirt cheap but £30 (-/+ a pound, due to
conversion rate of the euro) seem pretty good, is anyone interested? I
know 2 people so far that want them, plus me, so that's 3, but need 7
other people (or to get shot of 7 other units) if anyone is interested?

Not sure what the postage cost will be, worst case is parcel2go, whom
charge about 11 quid I think.


I'm tempted just to buy them, but even I don't need that many remote
control JCB's, lol

Btw, they seem to be about 1/10 scale (not an expert on JCB's but they
don't seem to be modelled on brand type etc)
