That was great! It felt like I was sitting in the cab plowing the road clear. You did a very good job on the whole project. A+ |

Exactly how long did it take you to do the entire driveway? Good job, though. |

| I would say 2hr total. that includes the sidewalks, stopping for two battery changes, and to go in and warm my ass up!  It gets cold when all you’re doing is moving the rc controls. |

probably one of the best snow plows i've seen. I really wanted to build one for my old EMaxx but never got around to it.

That is bad azz! I should do something like that for the 1/6th Willys or the 6x6. What are you using for a headlight source, it seems to do a great job of lighting up the path in front of the plow.

Where did you mount the servos onto and how did you control them?

That is such a great idea, and looks like a heck of a lot of fun too!

Do the servos get hot while plowing?

I mounted the lifting servo on top of the steering servo with servo tape. And the pivot servo on a piece of aluminum angle with servo tape.  | |

| Well took the plow out to my parent’s house for Christmas. Plowed there ~600 foot drive Way with no problems. I did have quite a few hang-ups on the patched asphalt but nothing to worry about. Got home and started on my driveway. I noticed that my plow was not rising as it should. Upon further inspection I found some damage….     |

| The pivot linkage is also showing signs of undue strain.  |

would some washers help you out in that department ehind the button head before the plate, or even cat a 2nd plate to layer the area that's attached.
