In reply to Dennis Bosmans message I shall give some information about the
crane I am working on. Well working, it's almost finished.
The crane is indeed a Kobelco (http://www.kobelcoamerica.com) crawler crane.
It's a lattice boom crane, built in scale 1:13. The crane features the
following working functions (9V motors):
- The crawler tracks can be extended from 270 mm (transportation) to 370 mm
wide (operational).
- The upper machinery can rotate
- The winch to lift the boom
- The winch to hoist the hook
The crane as pictured:

http://www.student.tue.nl/u/e.v.wichen/pics/work-3.htm
has a main boom with a total heigt of 2,10 meters. I also made a jib over
one meter, so the total height of the crane will be 3,15 meters. (And no,
I'm not going the challenge the record).
So, if you want to know more, drop me an e-mail, or just wait untill I have
made some nice photographs and uploaded these to my website.
