Ventrac 45RC First Look

Күн бұрын

Introducing the next evolution in the Ventrac lineup: the 45RC Tractor.
This advanced platform is dual-operated, featuring both operator-on and remote control functionality, with precise electro-hydraulic controls. Built to excel in demanding work environments, the 45RC comes equipped with an industrial-grade remote and ergonomic joystick, making it the ideal choice for tasks that require durability.
Dual-operation modes in a remote control tractor like the Ventrac 45RC provide superior utility compared to a single dedicated remote unit. With the option to switch seamlessly between operator-on driving and remote control, operators can choose the best approach for various tasks, ensuring greater precision in tight, difficult, or hazardous areas. This flexibility allows for efficient handling of complex jobs that require human oversight or remote operation, optimizing both productivity and safety. Additionally, dual-operation allows the machine to be fully utilized in diverse settings, offering a broader range of applications than a dedicated remote-only system.
The new ergonomic joystick replaces the mechanical drive-link and adds new functionality and features while increasing operator comfort. Because this tractor features electric-over-hydraulic technology this has allowed for exciting new features. V-Trim is a selectable drive control that allows the operator to independently control the RPM of the engine and the full potential drive speed of the traction unit. The brand-new digital display shows real-time operational data, including a slope gauge.
Built on the same robust chassis as the trusted Ventrac 4520 tractor and retaining all its core benefits - what you’ve come to expect from a Ventrac will remain the same. This tractor is powerful, yet agile, designed for tough jobs while delivering the same reliability Ventrac is known for. Whether you’re tackling steep slopes or precision tasks, the 45RC is engineered to handle it all.

dudeeeee an rc ventrac is crazyyyy that’s so sick

Wow! That is an incredible feat to be able to drive a Ventrac remotely! However i must say that i do enjoy the thrill of 30% slope mowing from the driver seat. These machines are excellent at what they do. Looking forward to what comes next

@brandonpaul5712 3 ай бұрын

Probably never. The Ventrac just doesn't have enough power to run that kind of attachment. If they built a tractor with high enough horsepower to run one, they would have to redesign every single attachment they make to handle the stress of the increase in power.

@johnevans6053 3 ай бұрын

@@brandonpaul5712 They have mini-stand-on skid steers that you can get forestry mulchers for and they are about 25-30 hp units. You are probably correct, I don't have big hopes either that they can figure out the details, but why not challenge them? It would be nice if they had one.

@@brandonpaul5712 exactly....i actually watched this with a little thought that this would be a 45hp machine. Ventracs are a severely underpowered machine. I've owned 4 of them.

@markw2266 3 ай бұрын

As much as I like the belts for driving attachments, it is the weak link in adding more HP. A mechanical engineer told me that a 5V belt is only rated at 14 HP. I'm sure they are pushing that limit and if you over feed any attachment, you have to listen for the slip. Kinda proves his opinion.

@brianmills4891 3 ай бұрын

very cool idea. Without additional traction of some kind I don't know why I would get off it except maybe because of cold weather. I feel totally safe on any terrain. And if I think I'm at risk on the machine then the I think the machine is at risk, and no way I'm taking a chance on that with a 70K investment. what I'm waiting for is the all-electric ventrac!

Why would ANYONE want an all-electric ventrac????? Oh, I get it, you live in COMMIE-fornia!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@brianmills4891 Ай бұрын

@@robertsmida9601⁠several reasons. One of ventrac’s biggest limitations is power. Electric motors would solve that. Electricity is way cheaper than gas which would significantly reduce the cost of operation. Electric motors are less complex and do not require as much maintenance. Most of my uses are in 2 hour or fewer sessions and local on my property so charging could easily occur at about any time. It would also be much quieter. These would be my reasons, which have nothing to do with political ideologies, but rather practical use

Can we get a SDLA lever upgrade like that for the 4500

@johnevans6053 3 ай бұрын

I am not sure I understand the benefit. Is it because you are operating it in conditions that would be unsafe for an operator to be on the machine? I would think it would make more sense for you to make it programable. For example, the operator would mow the perimeter of an area and have the Ventrac then mow everything inside that perimeter without any further human intervention.

@qjason508 3 ай бұрын

Should put a rear facing camera and have it where you can go from front to rear with a button, and keep the mechanical controls for the comfort and better feel for the tractor. What’s the MSRP for one in Canada without attachments?

@seandurgin 3 ай бұрын

Are you saying this will allow the machine to operate beyond recommended slope guidelines?

@codeyknepper5651 3 ай бұрын

I think this is great if no operator allows for a better slope rating. But since nothing was mentioned about that, I am assuming that the slope rating doesn’t change? How about getting that joystick on a regular drive model?

@dalebargen 3 ай бұрын

@@codeyknepper5651 The slope rating may not change for liability reasons, but every operator will test its limits and I’m sure it can exceed what can be done with an operator onboard. I would add every weight possible however!

@bluecordterrainmanagement 3 ай бұрын

I'm curious to see how the 3 point controls are operated. As far as "advantages" of the RC system over being operated on the seat, I'm only seeing a slight difference in a lower center of gravity without an operator on the machine. Aside from that, the slope capabilities should be the same, right? What is the slope rating of the new machine with or without an operator?

@nateonps1064 3 ай бұрын

So, I sell these, the slope rating is unchanged. they are capped out by the engine slope requirements. Only real option is improve the rating, is to go to a battery option.

Is there a dead-man switch on the remote? If the remote operator would become in-capacitated, does the Ventrac continue on indefinitely and possibly do property damage or run into a lake?

RC is used by other manufacturers as well and only for mowing machines. If with Ventrac you can use RC for all attachments it is good upgrade.

Is slope performance for RC model same as for regular ones? As I understand RC should be used on very steep terrains where it is dangerous for operator to sit and manuver?

This would be helpful for extreme hills where you’re not comfortable being on the machine but that’s about it. I would rather see a little larger footwell with room for a foot pedal like John deer uses on their compact tractors, a separate pedal for forward and reverse would be awesome.

I really can't think of a situation that having the remote control allows you to operate on any terrain that a experienced operator couldn't. If the machines gonna roll over its gonna roll over if you're on it or not. I love Ven Trac, They are amazing. I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm honestly curious.

@Talasas 3 ай бұрын

The main reason would be the operator doesn't get injured in the roll over in that instance.
