YouTube GOLD - EPS. 2 "The TROMMEL" Testing the Pay Dirt Rotary Drum Screener | RC ADVENTURES

The TROMMEL - a vital piece of my Gold Mine. Welcome to Episode 2 of #YouTubeGold - This is a parody mini-series of the TV shows I enjoy very much, and the hobby of Radio Control. Yes, I am an RC fanatic. I have been collecting for years.. and know its over the top.. I get it. Hah! For the viewers that know, YES I do have an older model trommel but it is well used and the sun has taken its toll over the years, warping the main drum. I have searched the globe for a decent trommel, something that will help separate the pay dirt. was the site where I bought this V3 Model. It weighs approximately 40lbs.
It is being brought into the mine site by semi truck. It's a Ford AeroMax (Tamiya), powered by a brushless Tekin ROC412 Crawler Motor & RSX Gen 2 ESC. The 3 Speed truck transmission pulls this heavy load with ease. The trailer is an aluminum lowboy (vintage), and was Just Barely able to fit the load on.
The Crane is 100% hand made, and brazed by David G. It is a true piece of artwork..and it was the perfect tool for such a task. I had this crane made to pull heavy loads.. and just happened to have it handy for the gold mine. A great tool for such a heavy load. I was surprised we made it.
The Wheel Loader I use to collect the pay is an RC4WD Earth Mover 870K. It is a full hydraulic machine, that weighs in at a whopping 43lbs, and can move a lot of yards very quickly.. Just what I like! Get it here:
A few precarious moments in this film.. but all in all, completely worth it.
Oh yeah.. the CAT Skid Steer is a Robotic Skid Steer.. and yes, I can operate the machine, inside or out! I'm an RC ADDiCT at heart!
