[QUOTE="sjt01, post: 4676658, member: 30726"] The plan is to get away from mechanical transmissions, as the 3rd gear clutch packs seem the weak point. Electric motors produce peak torque at zero revs, so generally don't need gearboxes. I would use a simple gear hydraulic pump and drive the motor to give constant pressure, as electrical control is so much simpler (for me at least) than hydraulic. Motors and controllers are reasonably cheap from China these days, its the batteries that will be the big item in the project. I was hoping that the Kramer electric would be available in telescopic, but that seems a long way away. [/QUOTE]
