Stunning Hidromek RC models

While most visitors to Bauma next week will be heading for the giant machinery exhibits, I myself have been given the task of checking out what’s new in the world of compact construction equipment.

Stunning Hidromek RC models
Having said that I don’t think my remit covers these stunning remote-control models, which I believe will be making an appearance on the Hidromek stand in hall C5. 427-449. These fully functioning and extremely detailed models are made by German company Metal Hobi Gmbh and are in 1:14 scale. The company produce 5 different versions of the HMK490LCHD hydraulic excavator with different number's of valves in them. Its probably fair to say, they are not cheap and more of a rich boy’s toy, the basic 6 valve model for example being priced at 8,490.00 Euros with the top of the range demolition spec model costing 9,950.00 Euros. The company also manufacture an equally stunning model of Hidromek’s HMK640WL wheeled loader. Check out this video and witness the level of detail that is included on these models.
