New Holland E215B Tracked ExcavatorPresented here is the 1:50th scale New Holland E215B tracked excavator from Motorart. This is one of three versions which have been produced and features a triple articulating boom with a general purpose digging bucket. The opening engine cover is a nice addition on the model, revealing the moulded engine block which has highlighted piping and printed markings. The addition of an articulating boom allows more posing possibilities and the bucket can be positioned close to the body for working in tight and confined spaces. The hydraulics have a stiff feel allowing the boom, stick and bucket to be positioned as required and flexible plastic piping has been added to the boom and stick for added realism.
The undercarriage has linked track pads with triple grouser and bolt head detailing visible on each link with the track frames having accurate safety label placement and integrated steps giving easier access for the driver. Both the drive and idler wheels are fixed so the tracks actually sag a little. This is not a big deal but it is noticable, especially when compared to excavator models that have tensioned track frames. The latest releases from Motorart are a nice addition to the range of New Holland construction replicas. |
