Yeah, I agree, I think #2 (top of cab) is the best view, though I do also like the front of cab, back of cutter veiw (I think it was #3) :) , Great videos, lovely to see it all get cut flat again, very satisfying :)
I think the mount on top of the cab was best. But I enjoyed all of the different camera placements and cutting techniques! Thanks phor sharing the video.
This entire video was a relaxing joy to watch. I like position 2 the best which I think you said was placed on top of the skid steer and position 3 was not too bad either. Enjoyed a full-watch. Thanks foir the video. 👍🏽🙂
Definitely top edge of cab mount is the best view. I am now addicted to your videos. One appeared in my feed and I can’t stop watching this beast. I love it!
Yep, I like number 3, on top of the cab the best. The one at the end of the cutter was the worst. Glad you got off that one pretty quick. Thanks for sharing.
I like the roof mount with the exception that I keep wanting to look further in front of the mower deck to see where you're going. you could tip it up a little Down low is good but mount it on something that goes up with the deck like the step so what you're doesn't get blocked when you raise the deck. You're in Florida so cut down those cabbage palms they sprout up everywhere.
I like it on top of the cab. You do good work. I use a 6' bush hog behind a tractor. Tall stuff I cut in reverse. It takes time to cut tall thick brush and briars.
high cut low cut is definitely more efficient, it saves fuel, less stress on the engine and mower also saves time not having to wait for the blades to spool back up, oh and I like #3 position with the go pro it gives a pilot's view like I'm in the cockpit as the operator, not unlike a simulator. jolly good show.
Nice unit ,don’t you have a fear of the crap you can’t see. 40 yrs ago my dad told me to cut the high grass behind the normal yard with the almost new toro self Propelled lawnmower. Yup hit a cast iron pipe. Bent the crank,no fixing that. Got another mower after that . I still walk it the tall stuff in MY yard so I don’t get a repeat oh shit moment.
I do have some fear, but the blades are not fixed, like a lawn mower, they swivel 360 degrees so if they hit something hard they don't just stop up against it like a lawnmower would, they deflect around it, which puts less stress on the bearing and shaft. The skid steer also had load sensing hydraulics so if I hit something really bad it immediately shuts the throttle down to idle. But yeah there is always concern. Just have to be careful and watch out.
I like that #3 camera mount get that low pov but seeing everything that's ahead. You might also want to get a rear view camera on the back of your rig so you can show where you just cleared brush. I'd be curious to see what that looks like
On the cab but a bit more focussed up, slightly less of the cutter. Seeing a bit of sky and horizon with the cutter in the lower third of the frame. I could watch this all day. Granted, I understand the risks of what objects you don't want your blade to hack. John BC, Canada
Thanks for the feedback! I've heard from several people to point the camera more forward and that's something I've tried to do in the vids I've posted since this one so hopefully the angle is correct now.
Thanks for the feedback. And yes, it happened one time on one of the first jobs I ever did last year. I was cutting a heavily wooded lot and I guess a homeless guy was living in the back of the lot. I woke him up and he came running out wondering what I was doing, scared the hell out of me LOL!
For a better effect of the quality of the work, I suggest you also mount a webcam on the back of the tractor; to then show the progress of the work in sync!
Top of the cab has the best view & in the 3rd shot when you raise the brush cutter it blocks the view of the go pro,so I'll still say 2nd shot on the cab is the best view
Top of the cab gives best view, but adjust the field of view so its not focused on the brush guard itself. The bottom of the field of view should be the near the front of the brush guard so it gives a wide area of what is being cut, the area of interest. The way it was set up on the cab seemed as if the brush guard was the matter of focus and not the area you were cutting.
Top of the car for sure (#2)... is love to do something like this, but I’d be soooo afraid I’d hit something medal or something the the mower would not like lol.
I think when you back up all that distance without cutting your wasting fuel ! When you come to an end of a run turn it around and cut another row. Unless you 've got time and money to burn.
After all that thorny stuff is cut, what do land developers do? Seeds and roots are still there. Does the developer clear the top soil? Certainly no one can dig or walk barefoot, not with thorns in the ground. How does that work?
Great question Michele! Nothing, typically. It will just have to be continually mowed about every 4-6 months. If it sells to a developer they will have a site work company come in strip the vegitation and topsoil and backfill with fill dirt in accordance with the plans for whatever is being built. If it were to be stripped now it would eventually grow back with something, possibly the same thorny stuff.
@@idigit4967 Love it. Had it 6 months or so, about 80 hours. Intermittent problem with back up camera. Other than that a great machine. Just purchased a 60G two weeks ago...have almost 20 hours on it. Only issue is that it has no "side push" strength. I cannot push dirt sideways to fill a ditch. JD dealer looking into it. I do have a TL 130 with 1600 hours.
@@joecolvard2861 Nice. When I upgrade I'm looking at either a 333G or TL12V2 if I buy used. If I buy new I may go with the Kubota SVL95-2s. But that will be another year or so probably so who knows what I'll do. But I appreciate the info!
I have a friend with the Kubota....he likes the Deere 333 best. He works full time in grading and construction. I just keep up 2 of my properties with my equipment.
Hi . Question at 20.22 in the video there is a tall spike of red flowers do you happen to know what they are most likely a weed there but looks a very nice bright flower that stands out cheers
#3 best conveys Sound of the Operation, Weed height and the Complexity of the Cuts, but #2 was also interesting so a combination of both would be Good.
A few questions. What do you do it you run across metal? I an sure that has happened before. And how about large rocks, or even bee's nests and such? Or even a baby dawn bedded down? I can easily see such things when cutting large areas...
Depends really. I dont come across many large animals, field mice and rabbits mostly. The occasional snake. We have no rocks here in coastal SC so its typically concrete that I'll hit instead of rocks. It just grinds them up and sometimes dents the blades. It'll chew up metal too. I've hit several underground yellowjacket nests, they just come out and fly around all mad. The cab is enclosed so as long as I dont get out near them I'm usually ok.
Good morning, I should have originally put great videos. I watch your videos almost every day and I find them all enjoyable to watch I’m in California I’m not sure where he where you are but you do a fantastic job for your customers
Why not have mowingdeck on 8 inches and move whole field driving forward, finish it of at low setting and have no sickening driving backwards alarm going of ??
Nice job. Keep the camera high. Sometimes I cant figure out your cutting patterns. Looks like you back up and waste gas too much, but then again, I'm not in the cab, or paying for the equipment. Keep up the videos. Thanks.
