I replaced all the seals and o rings in my drive motors runs like a champ. I couldn't go forward or backward before. I rebuild both drive motors for under $200
I have to make a video on this. It’s a big bitch if you are new to the hobby. I have it working on both my UMX citation (EDF) and my aeroscout. Once you set it up you can copy it for any SAFE plane
Super cool... so pleased I kept watching until the end I was not certain what you were doing. but that is a great tip, I will give it a go. my drone has a horizon mode, that works the same way, but it kicks in at 75 or -75, so that you can slow down or speed up the roll a little :)
Hey I'm working on a KFX 450 for a friend and it has a power commander that has two of them I noticed it was popping a little bit when I was slowing down so it's supposed to adjust itself. If you wanted to change the map you can do it with the laptop
@@223mt i have a Lil grinding soun and the front right wheel is like locked I don't know what can cause that I put hydraulic 68 in I think it can be to thick for it
@@223mt i pulled the handbrake thing but I didn't see any pin 😕 maybe it is in there but I'll have to lift the metal plate to see yeah just the front right just grinds a bit the rest are good and the motors push good no lack of power doesn't go 1 side doesn't leak 😐maybe bearing that is alot of work I think
@@223mt you got me started looking at fairway mowers with Kubota engines….seems like there’s still some life left after 2,500 to 3,000 hrs…the mower being on its last legs….the engines are size wise perfect for a samurai…but are pump drivers and not clutch compatible….the inj pump may also not be ideal….
I have a 446 without an engine and recently bought a Kubota 3 cylinder. I saw that you extended the front to fit the radiator but I couldn't tell how you did the hydraulic cooling system and how did you still get the hood to meet with the steering console properly since you moved the hood mount forward? I'm a bit perplexed as you how you did that.
The hydraulic cooling system had metal lines that run forward and then a chunk of hose between the metal line and the tank I just extended the hose part. I haven’t got the hood to fit properly yet I was always going to buy another hood and weld them together like this guy says he did in the video link below ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XstCxzlr60k.html
Does it work? Yes! Is it efficient? Not really. You now have the exact same wood splitter you had only now its being powered by a much more expensive motor(insert skid steer here). You are still standing in the elements, lifting each piece onto the splitter and still functioning the lever to accomplish the same results. So many ways this could have been streamlined and that’s why I am watching this video for ideas. I think if you had no plans to change the operation of the splitter that a 10HP Honda engine would of been a cheap investment.🤷♂️
I originally wanted to make it so you operate from in the machine but after watching enough videos they are a waste of time. The only advantage would be you could split a log you couldn’t lift. I split would in the back yard if I had to maneuver the skid steer over every log not only would there be no grass left but I would have to level the dirt when I was done too.
Hi, i just get a kit for the drive motors for my bobcat 7753 and find out do not include the seal thats go by the shaft, is like 2",the one you mention on minute 4:35,, is any way you know whats the real dimention on that one?
I find your project interesting Curious what kubota motors are constant vs adjustable rpm on those mowers…I’m guess the hydraulic pump driven are constant…..(looking for a source motor for a farm driven Sami)
Hey man I’m just curious, you couldn’t find any maps to make it run normal? I have the FCI intake and a full dasa exhaust just like you, but I also have a 13:1 High compression pistons and stage III cams, I just bought the power commander v and it’s at the shop getting installed right now, I’m just wondering if I should be expecting a phone call from the shop because they can’t find a map (tune) for it at all?
I am very impressed. Nice job. How many ton cylinder? Length of throw? GPM? I have a similar skidloader, and am considering something like this. Thanks. Michael
These engines are hard to find. I thought about putting one in a sears st16 or a JD212, but they’re both a belt drive & can’t really fit, plus the extra weight of a 200+lb engine probably wont work long term.
Ya I did in this other video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B2ZwDj6sniw.html if I had known how easy it was to put in a seal kit (which fixed the problem) I would have just put the seal kit in instead of swapping the drives
I recently got a 2 cylinder Perkins to hit into a stock 446 frame complete with front pto to run all attachments. I used a quad rad to keep the stock hood. Just had to move the hinge ahead.
I just watched your newest video with your little Perkins swap the hood looks awesome that’s what I need to do did you put two hoods together or did you make the extension out of sheet metal can’t even see the seam on the video. And Did you know your videos don’t allow comments?
@@223mt I had another rusted out hood that I cut an end section off to extend my current hood by 3 inches I was able to utilize the original hold downs. It was a little tricky with a stick welder but it blended nicely with minimal bondo. The second swap I did not modify the hood other them flipping the hinge. I did weld a piece onto the dash so the hood now sits over the lip. Another video will bo coming soon.
@@223mt I didn't have to bleed mine but I think it allows for oil to get down to the motors without becoming air locked but the system bleeds itself I just rebuilt both motors on my 753 a few months back and haven't had any problems so far everything works great
@@wesleyjohnston9325 I believe the two o rings are seals for the two large hydraulic hose connectors. They should be replaced whenever you remove the hoses.
Great video. Thanks for the tips. Just bought my first bobcat 763 that is a basket case. I saw a video of a guy that rebuilt his. Seems like you have the skills to do it. Good luck.
