A 3D printed 1/14 RC Kubota KX 080-4 build it yourself kit provides hobbyists with the opportunity to assemble and customize their own replica of the excavator. This is almost ready to run. All that is needed is a 3s Lipo and a RX/TX system.

Kit Contents:

1. 3D Printed Parts: The kit includes all the necessary components for assembly, which are 3D printed using high-quality PLA+ or PETG plastic. These parts are intricately designed to accurately represent the Kubota KX 080-4, including the chassis, cabin, tracks, excavator arm, thumb/grabber, and blade.

2. Assembly Instructions: Detailed assembly instructions are provided, guiding users through each step of the construction process. These instructions may include diagrams, photographs, and written explanations to ensure clarity and ease of assembly.

3. Remote Control System: The kit uses remote control system for operating the model once assembled. The remote typically features proportional controls for forward/backward motion, left/right steering, and operation of the excavator arm, thumb/grabber, and blade.

4. Pivoting Arm: The excavator's arm is fully articulated and can be controlled to mimic the movements of the real machine. It can pivot up and down, extend and retract, and rotate side to side for precise maneuverability.

5. 3D Printed Tracks: Custom-designed 3D printed tracks are included in the kit, closely resembling the tracks of the actual Kubota KX 080-4. These tracks provide stability and traction, allowing the model to navigate various terrains with ease.

6. Working Thumb/Grabber: A functional thumb or grabber attachment is included, allowing the model to grasp and manipulate objects just like the real excavator. The thumb/grabber can open and close, providing versatility in handling different materials and debris.

7. Working Blade: The kit includes a working blade at the front of the model, allowing it to perform tasks such as leveling and pushing materials. The blade can be raised and lowered, providing additional functionality for various construction and landscaping projects.

8. LED Lights: To enhance realism and visibility, the kit may include LED lights, including headlights, taillights, and work lights.

9. Sound Effects: Some kits may incorporate sound systems that produce realistic engine sounds, hydraulic noises, and other effects, further immersing users in the experience of operating the model.

10. Rechargeable Battery: A rechargeable battery pack is included to power the model, providing extended runtime for uninterrupted play. The remote control may also require batteries, depending on the specific design.

Overall, a 3D printed 1/14 scale build-it-yourself kit for a remote-controlled Kubota KX 080-4 model offers enthusiasts an engaging and immersive construction experience, allowing them to assemble and operate a highly detailed and functional replica of the real machine.
