The final pics will follow as soon as possible. By now I can tell you that
the model represents a DEMAG AC 500 in a 1/20 scale; the model is powered by
5 motors - traction is driven by an old 5220, wich manages to move it
withouit any problem even if I operate the steering.
Motor tasks are as follows:
1-5225 to operate the steering, which acts on the 7 axes, all fitted with
ackermann correction
1-5225 to operate the opening of the stabilizers
1-5225 to operate the raising of the stabilizers
1-5225 to rotate the turret
1-5220 for the traction of the wagon with traction on the 5th axle  (the one
I mentioned above)

The turret uses 5 motors, but I'm thinking to add another one. Anyway, here
are the functions they operate:
1-5225 to rotate the cockpit (control cabin?) of the crane
2-5225 to lift the arm by telescopic racks
1-5220 for hook lifting/lowering
1-5225 for the telescopic arm (in-out)

I gave up a bit for now, because the telescopic arm is quite difficult to
build. In the meantime, I built this:

What do you think about it?

That can be a real challenge! Where are the pneumatic switches hidden? (...) (22 years ago, 17-Apr-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic)
