I Built the World's First RC CyberCrane!

In this video, I take The Cyber Plow to new heights by adding a custom-built, adjustable crane, designed and built entirely from scratch. Powered by the same internal winch installed some time ago, this crane is put to the test as we lift a homemade go-kart, built by my grandfather, great-uncle, and uncle back in 2001. The go-kart is powered by a Honda 50cc engine and, after some recent care, it still runs strong! In this test, however, it's assigned the job of being heavy-and heavy it is, weighing in at 82 kg! I'm thrilled the crane managed to lift such a heavy load without any further modifications.

As you can see, I'll need to add more weight plates at the back for counterbalance, and the lifting arm may need some reinforcement to avoid bending. But don't worry, a new video showcasing more upgrades and practical testing will be coming soon!

To see how The Cyber Plow was built from the start, I recommend checking out this previous video: https://youtu.be/qIxWRqDMOc4?si=YqbyYq5piVnANAPr
