Looks great Steve!! On that sabertoith, I found out my problem, when it would find a false neutral and start running when sticks were centered,,, from what I could understand they have an inbuilt logic that finds neutral when started and is constantly comparing forward,neutral, and reverse. If you start going forward right away and keep going sometimes it will sense that as the neutral. I may not be explaining it well but the short version is if you guys use sabertoith and it creeps or runs when it shouldn't be. Stop disconnect power, re power up and let sit in neutral fro a while then move forward /backward and let sit a couple seconds in neutral. Usually not a problem with most models but dozers often go one direction for a while. Basically if you power up start going forward for longer than it sat in neutral it may think that is the neutral position and logically adjust accordingly. ?!?? And for me it seems to be working. Don't know if it is a certain timeframe of batches built or all?
And take my input for what it's worth, not much. But I was about to buy a new one because I thought my was problematical until I found this info.

Can't wait to see this in person Steve. I'll stay on the other end of the dirt pile with the lightweight d11!!!! Still envious of track links!!! Wonder if they wil fit the d11? Ever see a td40 on blocks after someone swiped the tracks??! hahaha
