Default RC Construction Vehicles

I've been trying to find some rc construction vehicles like dozers, excavator, dump truck. I have found some but they are toys from like you would buy from walmart.

Does anybody on here know of a company that makes HOBBY GRADE construction vehicles

HOLY S**T!!! Forget I even mentioned it! Definitely a rich kid's hobby! I seriously don't know how they stay in business.

They are pretty cool though!

They are better quality than the ones i've seen. Made from abs plastic? I don't know how well they would hold up. Sand or light topsoil would be about the only thing you use them in.

If you guys havent noticed the equipment on gardentrucking is all hydrolic powered, no crappy servos trying to move the booms,buckets, etc etc. All the hydro cylinders are actually functional along with the scaled down hydrolic pump. Ive seen a few vids of some Bruder toys converted with the hydros, i added it up to be around 1300-1600 to do this, but even then its still just a plastic frame. Hope this helps.
