1:50th Scale Dynapac CC424HF Tandem Drum Roller
Presented here is the 1:50th scale Dynapac CC424HF tandem drum roller with open cab from Motorart. This project started out as a 1:35th scale model and the guys at Dynapac eventually decided to go 1:50th scale which is why the model has taken a long time to be released. The results are very impressive with high detail castings, opening side doors revealing the engine details within and a fully positionable driver's station
|
The front and rear work lights have been added and actually consist of small, clear and red plastic lenses which add greatly to the level of detail |
The drums have a silver surface with painted interior and are freely rotating. The drum cleaning bars are accurately placed on each side of the drum and the detailed drive motor casing is visible, again showing the bolt detailing and flexible piping. |

The fully replicated drivers station is clearly visible with an open ROPs frame and large roof panel. The seat and control console can be rotated to face the front or rear of the model as desired as well as the ability to position it at each side of the model. Accurately scaled safety railings have been added around the driver's area with an opening on one side giving access for the operator.

The side opening doors reveal internal engine and cooling details including moulded and flexible pipework which is a very nice touch on the model. Flexible hoses are also visible on each drum frame and the large bolt heads have been picked out with silver paint which really gives the model a realistic appearance. This is a really good replica of the Dynapac CC424HF roller and complements the closed cab version perfectly. |
