My original Crane MK1 model (see previous album), has been upgraded to this MK2 version. the changes to the chassis are fairly minor, with the cradle supports strengthened and the back end bodywork re-done. The main upgrades are to the crane itself- a 4th section added. This has increased the maximum extension length, height & weight. In order to manage the increased load, I've replaced the single L motor with 2 M motors, doubled the phneumatic pumps to 4 and strengthened the piston & hinge supports. Crane Stats: Max arm extention length- 145cm Max arm height- 110cm Total model weight- 8.6Kg (including 1Kg counterweight)
