First successful test of remote hydraulic control on heavylifter

First hydraulic test from wireless remote control

We have now completed the first test of our new control system for the heavylifter, with hydraulic functions operated directly from the wireless remote control.

The goal of the test was to verify communication between the remote control, the control system, and the hydraulic unit, and to confirm that all commands were executed safely and predictably. During the test, hydraulic functions were activated and monitored from the remote control, and the system responded as expected throughout the entire test run.

The result was very positive. Communication was stable, response was fast, and all safety functions worked as planned. This marks an important milestone in the project and confirms that the foundation for further development is in place.

The next phase of the project will be implementation and testing of the drive system. Once this is in place, the operator will be able to control both hydraulics and movement from the same remote control, providing greater flexibility and better overview during operations.

We look forward to continuing development and taking the next steps towards a modern and user-friendly control system for the heavylifter.
