----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the FLK-1500, a strong crawler crane and designed by AIN_002. The crane is not mapped but you can still skin some parts and change colors of meshes. I recommend downloading the skin pack from Rotexx. Uploading your own skin is allowed but please upload it as a skinzip.
Controls:
F1/2 - Rotating the crane
F9/10/11/12 - Moving the tracks
You can view the rest of the commands in the T-screen
This pack includes 6 cranes
- FLK-1500 with 108m boom
- FLK-1500 with 108m P-boom
- FLK-1500 with 58m boom
- FLK-1500-NT with 108m boom
- FLK-1500-NT with 108m P-boom
- FLK-1500-NT with 58m boom
There might be coming more version of this crane like something with a jib but that will be a matter of time.
This zip also includes counterweight for the crane, which can simply be locked to the back of counterweight-arm with L!
Oh and before more people start crying about this: The counterweight can't be lifted off the ground when there is no heavy load in the hook! (which is logical and real!).

i hope i have write all commands
look at the first post of ac500 topic for pictures how the counterweight systeem work (demag-ac500)
this is a project i will most probably never Finnish as i started something else instead.
its the 4x4 thing and a custom made crane trailer for it,
the 4x4 thing has 4 wheel steering at low speeds, locked diffs and a steering wheel.
the crane trailer has ropes and a invisible leg, the commands for it are are:
F9-F10 lower and lift the crane boom.
F11-F12 lower lift the invisible foot.
'O' connect load
'L' lock crane trailer to vehicle.
to connect the trailer drive the 4x4thing so the trailers hitch node is above the grease mark on the 4x4 thing and it 'L'
to pick up a load back the crane trailer over it lower it so its with in 1.5m from the object and it 'O' once it connects
and the ropes shorten hit F10 to lift the load of the ground and drive away. reverse order for dropping a load.
the crane trailer is usable on other 5th wheel hitches.
