Great video, you seem to have really nailed the movements!

thanks, it was a challenge at first trying to figure out how to program my 6-channel Radiolink pistol radio to do the track movement, also, it would have been better if there are 2 more channels available but i just have to make use of the 2 channel with toggle switches, and 1 with a dial that would work as a toggle switch too. channel 4 is unusable since it is normally on and only push button to turn off so not for the up-down movement of a cylinder... i may have to get a new radio that is at least 10 channels for my upcoming projects.

Not sure how you feel about radios but a flysky i6x is 10 channels... I like them for my D5 and delta loader because I can mix the tracks onto one stick.. The i6s is also 10 channels I like it for my excavator and other track driven cranes or drag lines because it has 2 dials on each corner of the radio to use for the tracks leaving the sticks free for boom up/down, cable in/out,slew,etc..

I dont have preference on radios, i have a flysky GT3B 3-channel radio for my other crawlers and i like it...if its cheap and works just fine, im on it lol... i never thought that i6X has 10 channels which will be great for my projects... also, if the receivers are not so expensive, then im going for it. thanks for the heads up
