Hi did some drawing,
guess it should look like this. Now only to find a small valve for this!

thanks for the input

Sorry,
did it little to quick, now when studying the drawing and oil flow, it shouldn´t be a problem.
As Joe said earlier, the T coupling will take care of the differnt movment.
So it should look like this!

That's it Dan.

As far as valves go, Ric at GardenTrucking.com can fix you up, if your not going to be pushing to much volume. Which, you may be to big on scale, because these valves are only a 3 mm port. But he has single up to 6 valve blocks.
I'm running a 2 valve, 174psi or 10bar, 350ml pump, and I would like a little more volume. Good luck.

Well I have a little progress done on the pan, but for some reason it will not allow me to post pics anymore. Does anyone else have this problem?

 

[dirtpusher9]

This is the only way to do the pics.

Joe, I never well get enough of your Cat, it sure is a dandy!! Fred

 

[dirtpusher9]

Thank you Fred. Have you made any progress on any of your masterpeices?

 

[Iron Art]

Joe, I'm working on a Tigercat swamp logger. Its a long ways from being done but I will keep plugging away and see what I come up with. Fred

 

[dirtpusher9]

Been too hot but got a little done.

Joe, nice scraper, can´t wait to see it working with the D9.
The speed control on the model, is it 2s servos working or a electronic speed control?
Asking because I´m just trying to figure out how to mix the signal on my model.
Best is to get just like the real ones, everything on one stick. Having the other one for ripper/scraper/blade work.
Keep pics coming, it helps me (and others) to keep up model building

Thanks Dan. I use a 2 x 25 amp Sabertooth ESC. 25 amps per channel and when I geared that down I came up only using 6.34 amps at stall per channel, so I have good coverage and don't have a chance on of over amping. It mixes everything itself, and is set up just like the real dozer controls are. The left stick is forward-reverse and right-left, the right stick is blade up-down and tilt right-left. Really simple to set up and to operate.

 

[dirtpusher9]

Still lack some hydraulic componets, then I can hook it all up and see if it will work.

Looking good there Joe.

Can't wait to see the videos of it hauling dirt behind your D-9

 

[dirtpusher9]

Thanks for looking, Jerry.
