Wow Freddy it is really looking great you are doing it just the way I thought you would that is why I asked you to built the blade..

Little faster wont hurt but what volts are you running it on remember the tractor is 11.1 not 7.2..That will make it run faster..

Brian I and pretty sure it is a winch motor and gear box..

I believe that's a HiTec servo you are asking about, Brian. Judging from the aluminum case, with the heat sink cut-outs, I'm guessing it's a 5755, or one of the new 7900 series servos. The newer 7900 series servos can be run on 7.2 volts for some killer torque and speed. Freddy said it was something around 330 ounces of torque, but that is definitely not the strongest offered.

That front blade is the bee's knees. I think I know what I'm adding to my tractor for this winter. The side walk will be nice and clean in about ten mins and I'll be nice and toasty inside the house. :D
