CaDA - Functional Crane Truck (1831 pcs)

An impressive mobile crane as a technical building model

The CaDA Mobile Crane is a large and highly detailed construction model inspired by real mobile crane trucks used on building sites worldwide. With no fewer than 1831 building pieces, this set is designed for builders who enjoy mechanical realism, functional details and an engaging hands-on experience.

Inspired by real construction cranes

Mobile cranes are essential machines for lifting and positioning heavy loads on construction sites and industrial projects. They combine mobility with precision through telescopic booms, rotating upper structures and stabilising outriggers. This CaDA model faithfully recreates these core features in brick-built form.

Fully functional with manual operation

This model is a fully manual technical crane, allowing builders to explore mechanical movement without motors or electronics. The telescopic boom extends to approximately 70 cm and can be raised to an angle of around 50 degrees. The crane superstructure rotates 360 degrees for realistic lifting operations.

Stable and robust construction

Fold-out stabilising outriggers provide a solid base during lifting, while strong wheel hubs and a rigid chassis give the crane a powerful and realistic appearance. An additional boom extension of around 34 cm allows even greater reach.

Mechanical functions for realistic play

All crane movements are operated manually, making this model ideal for understanding mechanical principles. Key functions include:

• Extendable telescopic boom
• Raising and lowering boom with working winch and hook
• 360° rotating upper structure
• Fold-out stabilising legs
• Manual steering and driving
• Switching between 4 gear ratios

Challenging build with educational value

Building the CaDA Mobile Crane supports technical insight, problem-solving skills and fine motor development. The clear step-by-step instructions make the construction process structured yet rewarding, especially for experienced builders. Suitable for children aged 8 and up as well as adult construction vehicle enthusiasts.

Large display model and creative play

With finished dimensions of approximately 60 × 17 × 16 cm, this crane is an eye-catching model. It is perfect for imaginative construction site play or as a standout display piece in a collection of technical building models.
