@EtecGear Nope! It's real! Our new controls are just that easy! I'm sure you can imagine these kids had a lot of fun operating the truck. Great way to get kids interested in heavy trucks.
Does the arm automatically retract when lifted now? and it seems as though it automatically "undumps" when lowered. Either that or these kids are PRO lol
@3amrepmike3 They're pros!! Yes there is now an automated feature that allows you to pick up and dump all in one move regardless of where you pick up the can. It calculates the best route to dump and then places the can 1 foot away from the truck after dumping. It is very cool. There is also the standard manual mode featuring "feathering" control of the grippers-- which allows the operator to really easily control the width of the grippers by twisting the joystick (sneak into tight spots).
@WayneEngineering haha so the grippers can actually move so that they dont stick out as far when closed to accomodate for alley situations? If so that is a very clever design.
You guys are awesome!

@3amrepmike3 Yes, that's right. I'll try to get some footage that shows this feature for you.

@WayneEngineering I think I may have some footage of this on my channel. I did a series of the Curbtender in action
