This is the remote controlled toy crane that stands 4' tall, rotates 350º, and can load and unload small objects. Just like the actual tower cranes that are critical to erecting skyscrapers and other tall buildings, this one has an asymmetrically-balanced horizontal boom, a fixed base, an operator’s cabin, and a lifting hook operated by a system of sheaves. The tethered remote rotates the cabin, moves the trolly, and raises/lowers the hook. It lifts up to 3 1/2 oz. and comes with a platform attachment. Requires six AA batteries and counterbalance weight. Minor assembly required. Ages 3 and up. (4 lbs.)
