Huina 1/14 RC Excavator

Diecast Cab · Bucket Green Black · CY1593

The CY1593 is the workhorse of every Digger Squad arena. A 22-channel, 2.4 GHz proportional RC excavator with a diecast metal cab, alloy boom and a metal bucket that actually digs. It weighs in at scale, handles like the real thing, and gives kids the feedback that plastic toy diggers never could.

// Why this machine

Built to dig. Not to sit on a shelf.

Proportional hydraulics

Every boom, stick and bucket movement is smooth and weighted — just like the real machine. Kids learn real operator coordination.

Diecast cab & metal bucket

The CY1593 isn't plastic toy-grade. The green-and-black diecast cab and metal bucket survive back-to-back shifts at public shows.

22-channel control

Boom, arm, bucket, slew, tracks, lights, sound — every function on its own channel. No shared buttons, no shortcuts.

Swap-ready attachments

Quick-pin bucket system means we can run grapples, rippers or a wider ditching bucket for different arena challenges.

// Maintenance bay

Pre-shift checks. Every time.
