One option or feature in favor of Bobcat brand anyway. program that sucker to load your log deck on your processor/ log splitter…. Run it from an IOS controller or IPhone/ IPad.
I’ve never been able to find a price and my machine is too mechanical for it. And I’m ok with that. just more junk to break if it’s too new.
On a more serious note, we now have an operator in direct striking zone of the machine rather than wrapped in a huge protective steel frame...
Seems like someone can just open the hatch, connect their phone, and drive your equipment away! Also, how do you watch what the machine is doing while looking at the phone screen to control buttons? A phone screen is smooth and you can't feel what buttons you are pushing....
Remote control skidsteer...for when things get real sketchy and you don't want to be in that operator seat.
I have a customer with one also(tracked skid steer remote) a remote control 225HP chipper and a remote control lift and a remote control stump cutter....dont knock stuff til you have firsthand experience.
I would assume they would with this one because is it an official Bobcat product. Probably not if you homebrew your own remote.
Not knocking it one bit. I’m actually impressed with it. edit to add… This is a feature no tractor I’m aware of has though too. me personally, I just wanted a simple, no nonsense machine with as little computer complexity as possible and found it in my 23 year old 773 bobcat. Solid reputable kubota engine in that thing that just works.
