Hi all,
First of all, sorry to post in english, but germans being the leader in terms of hydraulics RC models, I'd like to ask for an advice.
In the next weeks Ill be moving to Europe for vacation but also I plan on visiting TTM Modellbau (from which I bought my first model, the Stahl LR632) to buy a new hydraulic model.
At first I wanted to buy the STAHL Volvo A25C, a good companion for my loader but then I started to think about an excavatori which is THE dream I had in my mind long time ago !
Im a long time lurker and I know possibly any excavator model made in germany, but now I need an advice between theses that are around the same price :
Damitz O&K
Wedico Cat 345
Hitachi zaxis 470 (this one I dont know the price, seems more expensive than the others)
I know Damitz is great, from reading your forum I havent found one people complaining, if some owner would be kind enough to explain in english the Pro and Cons, it will be great.
The Wedico is new in the market, I guess there is some poeple complaining but I dont know why exactly, if someone would explain to me what the problems are, this will be very nice.
I prefer the look and size of the Cat 345, I havent bought from Wedico in the past and I dont know their customer feedback. the only advices I have are really bad and comes from the Wedico Dumper. I also read the problem the Cat 966 is suffering and that's why Im quiet skeptical about buying from this company and expensive model.
Still the extra cash nneded for an exavator is not small compare to the Volvo Dumper who is very good as far as I've been reading comments on.
Please give me any advice you think would be important to know before buying my next model.
Once again, thanks to you my german friends, I really should have been focusing in german language when at school ...years ago...
Dimitri.
