Re: RCLogger
 

Awesome work Greg! Any issues with testing so far? Looks to have a pile of power.. Great job.. I can have a low boy on the road anytime:D

Re: RCLogger
 

Just need a CAT 330D Forest Machine!

Re: RCLogger
 

Yes that works nice. Why are you ripping and dozing at the same time? Like Scott said; More Video, I want to watch more action.:D

Re: RCLogger
 

Looking forward to more videos Greg, nothing less than 10 minutes each. :cool:

Re: RCLogger
 

Thanks guys, the power is good. It seems like the motors don't even have to work hard.

I tried the ripper and the blade at the same time just to see if I could manage the transmitter switchs at the same time..

Joe: Not sure whats up, but it is taking forever just to load a short video right now. The attached vid took 50 minutes to load and it is only a few minutes long..
