Hey !
So had a bit of free time this afternoon and weighed it up as I need to think about the balance issue that’s causing it’s to sit on it’s front idlers. I don’t know what happened but I have miscalculated the weight somewhere. Without the blade and arms it’s 51kgs. The blade and arms is 21kgs so that’s why it’s causing an issue.I weighed the ripper metal I have ready to assemble and it’s about 7kgs plus it hangs far about the back it will help balance some of the blade weight. I might have to add some steel ballast to get it right. So in total maybe 80kgs in the end. A bit heavier than I anticipated but the motors still move it about easily
I can see my glass bathroom scales getting cracked tho
