Remote Control Excavator C61082W

I absolutely loved this set. It was very fun to build as well as control but, it was a huge pain getting it working properly.

With the motorised set, the clutch mechanism does not bite into the gears properly. I had an issue where the clutch kept slipping and would grind when doing tracks and slew functions. I also had an issue with the tracks jamming up when I would drive them because they were too long.

My solutions was to 3D print 6x new clutch gears. The set's 6x grey clutch gears were too short so I 3D designed some taller clutch gears that bit into the clutch properly. I also removed a section from the front of the tracks to make it slightly shorter. This allowed the tracks to fit on tighter and no jam up. I also increased the length of the link on the dipper arm so that it would not collide with the bucket link.

After I sorted these issues out the set was working great. Just had to make sure the cables do not obstruct the gears or they make an awful noise and fall out. I had attached photos of the parts I edited. Also let me know of you want me to send you the .stl 3d file of the clutch gear.

Overall, a great set with great functions and awesome quality. Finally, a set that makes you think and pay attention to instructions when building. I was really impressed with the quality of parts.

On the first place I want to say that it's a beautifull set. Well thought, giving a lot of fun for nearly 8 hours.
The only problem is the RC system. Only two elements are working properly, but even after deconstructing and building obce note, the problem isn't solved.
I still believe that in a short time I'll be able to use all the possibilities and then think about purchasing a next set.

Good design. Epic size. Very satisfing to build. Great price compared to Lego. The build and manual difficulties are for the cry-babies. The downsides: fix your logistics and the order feedback. I was practically in dark. Didn't know what's going on and when my order will arrive. No missing parts but the box was obviously opened. The tape was clearly cut and the inner box a bit teared. It was very clear that someone opened the box. The question is why? Did some parts were forgoten and they opened it to add them? Like, I cannot think of a scenario for this. Also, a faulty part: linear actuator. But I accept this for this price. Also, the motorization option is very weak. I mean, it's nice to have the motors as option but for this size, motorization is practially impossible. You cannot motorize a vehicle of this size with that many plastic gears. Anyway. Overall it's worth it. I will buy more from CADA. It's a GREAT competitor to Lego.

Good day.
Please tell me the part numbers for equipping with remote control

In my opinion this is best looking excavator set available. Few hours of real joy.

This is a very nice and playable set.
Nice details and many functions

Hi, this is a great model and I'm having fun putting it together. But I'm having trouble with the tracks moving. Whenever I try to move them in opposite directions (that is, turn the excavator on its own axis), the engine function change lever ends up being moved and releases the gears, causing the tracks to stop. I would like to know if this is a known issue and how to resolve it. Thank you very much.

Hi. In my opinion very good set.

Super fun build, loved the incredibly easy motorization. Works great with or without, but definitely recommend getting it motorized!

Set is excellent overall. One improvement area is the clutch piece JM00540001 which another reviewer has already mentioned. It is too easily "stripped" when engaged to drive the heavy tracks. I used the red clutch piece as
JM00440001 as a replacement, but perhaps the designers can relook at how to reduce the friction in the tracks. Still, an excellent model, had lots of fun building it.

This was a very fun build, seeing the multiple gears come together to create a multi-functional unit. I felt like I was learning an engineering lesson while putting it together - instructions very clear for each step. The Power Function is a must-have, otherwise the motions are much slower to engage by hand. Unfortunately, after running it for just a few minutes, some of the functions stopped working. I eventually identified that the clutch piece (JM00540001 per manual) were of bad quality and had broken. If this piece is replaced though, everything works well! Overall a highly recommended set.

Habe den Bagger von meinem Sohn geschenkt bekommen.
wenn man ihn richtig zusammenbaut, funktioniert er auch einwandfrei.
Zwei bis drei kleine Teile fehlte, dafür waren andere zuviel.
Ohne Motoren, schwierig zu spielen, habe das Power System nachgerüstet.
Alle Systeme voll funktionsfähig. Leider gibt es kein passendes Power Set für diesen Bagger,
auch die pdf Anleitungen wie in der Verpackung angekündigt, konnten nicht heruntergeladen werden.
Qualität sehr gut, bis auf eine Achse, musste ausgetauscht werden.
Sehr schöne Verpackung und verständlich Bauanleitung ( 3 Bücher).
Sehr gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis, ist deshalb zu empfehlen.

C est vraiment cool a construire et facile et la boite de vitesse est incroyable

Hi,
How can I buy a motor set for C61082W?

I placed my order on June 24th and received it on July 1st so let's just start off by saying that shipping was remarkably fast for a package with power functions from China to the USA.

It took me about 5 days to build, taking my time and paying extra close attention to the instructions. The instructions would have been much better in full color but served their purpose.

Just about every other review here says that there are issues with the RC capability after completing the model but I can say that every RC function on my excavator works perfectly.

I'm genuinely impressed by this model and would recommend it to anyone who loves construction equipment.

5 star model!!

Facing numerous problems when building this set. Some functions are not working e.g track drive system, lifting arms movement etc. Have rebuild many times and still face problems. Instructions are not very clear. The quality of the set is good. Couple of missing bricks which can be easily replace. Overall experience - not very happy with it.

Have not received the parcel after 10 days. Because shipment was not free
And no answer at mine e-mail i sent.
On your site stands shipment for free.
Never i Bay things again nu this firm.

Viene sin los motores y cuando lo compre no lo especificaba como ahora, asique me tocó comprarlo a parte, aún así muy contento, es increíble, super entretenido y genial, excelente calidad, muy recomendable
