Congratulations on a very fine model! I agree with Avel, the drive system is the quietest I've (not) heard. Looks like you got the hydraulics problems worked out quite well. An observation: the hydraulics are much quicker than prototypical. I did a double-take on the blade and ripper speed - I'm sure it is personal preference, so no problem. They work great!

Surprised your dogs stayed back and just barked. My yellow lab, Stella, is drawn to noise, so she would have been down there sniffing and batting it with her paw.
