The model is Tethered to a remote power unit for the hydraulics and electical supply.
We are running a power steering pump for hydraulics and maintain around 700 PSI to function the machine.

It is capable of grabbing and heeling 2 8' 2x4's.
The swing and tracks are powered by automotive power window motors.

Now with the availability of micro hydraulics we are looking at converting to full radio control, but I'm hoping to convert our Challenger Off highway truck to Radio control first. Just to get started on a simpler conversion.

Wow! Very impressive. It would come in handy moving some scrap lumber in my yard.

700psi is impressive. What scale are you building in? Looks like a great machine.
