    ART BlackBird for "MRT and SRT"

    Please review the Akibaki 2. I have a couple gen1’s and like them alot. Can’t figure what’s really changed in the gen2’s.

    ART BlackBird for "MRT and SRT"

    I think the Akimbo has really been one of the best all around devices I’ve flown. I’ve found a setting that works very well in MRS and SRS alike when pairing it with Courant Kalimba. Just awesome for getting off the crane and onto a spar. Something’s going to have to be really really special...

    You’ll be busy! Hope it was all just things getting injured and not people.

    You’re really on to it, Steve. I remember adjusting for days until I found just the right setup for epicord on Tachyon. I eventually had it as close to a Spiderjack as you could hope for. Quite a learning experience for me. Mainly just glad to hear you’re relaxing into it.

    Yes. But it looks like the Merlo (or Mangi?) cares not!

    No, Steve, not with your saw. Just slings. My comment was really just about how you described your tilt (which is how my sub’s head tilts) and how I’ve actually seen Aaron’s 160 head tilt. I will have to show this thread to my sub and see if he has tried feathering his down. This is all really...

    I wonder if this is due to running the solenoid function through the crane remote vs. the tele-radio. From working with both of your current cranes, I can say I prefer how Aaron’s G2 160 tilts.

    Thanks for the info, Brian. Very helpful. Is your shop Crane Specialists? I’ve been talking with them and they seem quite knowledgeable.

    Everything you’ve said makes sense to me, I just don’t understand what you’re referring to with passive and active “dumping”. I understand the function just not the difference of passive and active. In regard to the Mecanil tearing a boom apart, I would add that we don’t necessarily have to go...

    Folks will likely never stop innovating so we will likely never stop learning. If you search over the GMT, try to add “TTC” or “Total Tree Control” in your search. The system is dang impressive!

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    Did you cook him up some good ol tree climber soup? That throw bag launcher bungee isn’t overly chewy if you cook it long enough. :)

    Copy. Well, for what it’s worth, a little birdy just told me Mec is releasing their own version of clutch brake pins in a few months. Might wait to pull the trigger until I see what they come up with. As my first crane isn’t huge, I will likely go with the lighter offering of the 2 brands.

    So it sounds like the rotator has a dedicated case drain port?

    That’s really good to know. I’m working on a build of my own and have always had a place in my mind for the GMT TTC. Donyou know specifically what it takes to engage those clutches? Independant circuit or solenoid diverter?
