Re: Super Sized...
There was a guy in Winnipeg, Manitoba that built a half scale New Holland skid steer, just so he could clear the snow from his driveway from the comfort inside the house... I talked to him thru email about it, he had designed his own auto shutdown in case the tx ever lost communication with the rx.
You're right Ed, other than the computer cut steel, everything else on that skid steer was bought off the shelf from Princess Auto. He was using 1/4 scale servos to operate the valves and the wheels were hyd motor driven too. He had a windows media player video on his website... I just checked the link I had saved for it, but I get "page not found"... too bad! It was pretty cool what he had done 15yrs ago.
