Re: Forwards and Backwards Ball Pickup

Having a way to pick up from both sides does have its advantages. I see what you are going for now. You are going to want a good balance between torque and speed in my opinion. Or you can keep your loader light enough so that you can have a reasonable amount of speed. I don't think it would be a good idea to have a way to pick up from both sides but have it take a while for it to get to each side. That's why I said why no just turn.
