Unsupervised

[Neverdone]

Some times I feel that I should not be left in my shop to play around unsupervised. [S [S

I was playing around yesterday and did this. Since you know I am an avid RC enthusiast I decided why push my mower? I harvested a set of power wheels motor gear boxes, made them fit to some HF $4 hand truck wheels, couple pneumatic casters and WWAAALLLLAAaa!!! My one RC radio has the ability to run with dual motor steering. So it should operate like a zero turn. Just need to finish up the back gearbox mounts so it doesn't stress the deck and lean the wheels in. Next up then I need to build servo mount plates so I can operate the motor throttle and such and kill switch and....... ahhh whatever....

That's cool. Where you putting the batteries?? Maybe a little trailer it can pull behind. If I remember right, my sons' Hot Wheels would go about half an hour then need a recharge. Maybe a small lawn tractor battery would work. Nice work.
