| AX10 Snow Plow!!!
Made a snow plow for my AX10, sort of a crude design but it works for now. Later will build one that works like a ATV plow setup. Let me know what you think and offer up any tips/improvments. |

So I did a test run and when the blade caught on something it flipped forward so I took a small chain and screwed a ball end on one of the screws on the blade, attached the chain to the ball end and hooked the other end on one of the links....problem fixed no more blade flippin! I seen a video on youtube where they basically used the full suspension from one side of a stadium truck, the blade turned both ways and up and down using the regular travel of the arm and the knuckle, plus the Aarm somewhat looks like a real plow frame. |

To help the blade from flipping forward, you could make another swivel point to mirror the one you currently have but on the top. With two swivel points, it'll be very rigid and strong. It'll just be an issue of where you're going to take that mount. I'm sure something could be made. It will also help to protect your plow servo, if you're worried about that. |
