    Bring warehouse and construction operations to life with the Kabolite K180-100S, one of the most detailed and capable hydraulic RC forklifts available. Built almost entirely from metal and equipped with a true hydraulic lifting system, the K180-100S delivers the power, precision, and realism serious RC construction enthusiasts’ demand. Whether you're stacking scale pallets, loading trailers, or building the ultimate RC logistics yard, the K180-100S combines exceptional scale fidelity with smooth proportional hydraulic operation.

    Unlike other RC forklifts, the K180-100S uses a genuine hydraulic system that provides smooth, scale-speed lifting with impressive control. The metal mast and forks are capable of lifting loads up to 2.5kg (5.5 lbs.), making it ideal for handling scale pallets, lumber, pipes, concrete blocks, and other RC construction accessories. The included FlySky FS-ST8 2.4GHz radio system delivers precision control of the functions, including direction, speed, lifting, tilt, fork spacing, lights, sound, and more. The included 11.1v 3S 5000mAh LiPo battery pack and AC charger offers sufficient power for long work sessions, while the durable carrying case keeps the model safe for storage or transportation.

    Tough, versatile, and loaded with power, this forklift is the perfect choice for RC enthusiasts who want a premium, ready-to-use experience, and when combined with Motion RC’s industry-leading service, selection, and support, you have something to “build on”. Get moving!
