A very complicated solution to a simple problem. Just wind the jockey wheel down until the tyres of the first axle are just off the ground, then it's a single axle and easily manoeuvrable.

Why don't use the mover too turn it around?
@modellermark2Ай бұрын
I do explain that in the video but firstly very sharp turns put huge strain on the tyres with a twin axle (my old single axle could spin on a sixpence) and secondly the driveway is so narrow now that the caravan overhangs a drop to turn around so would have to go very close to the drop to turn on the movers.

Why didn't you just remove the two front wheels and allow the jockey wheel to do its job
@modellermark2Ай бұрын
Have you ever tried doing that on a twin axle caravan? I wouldn't have though it was possible or safe with how the suspension and everything works on a twin axle as well as overloading the remaining axle?

While some have been technically critical, it's always worth remembering that innovative ideas, together with trial and error, are the bedrock of many of the classic designs we've become accustomed to. The kind of thinking we need to return to to revitalise the economy here. Rare that a Mk 1.0 solution has everything right first time. And as an associated thought... it is a shame for the longevity of caravans as a living concept, especially now that new-build houses seem to have less space to park a caravan or even get near the house. Keep thinking and making!

Hi there from New Zealand. I have been having problems with my FrSky X12S Horus regarding telemetry sensors. I daisy chain them as you have done in this demo. Sadly, i can only read one at a time. If i add another onto the end of the one working it doesnt pick up the ones plugged after. Hopefully you can give some help
@modellermark26 ай бұрын
Hi, If they are smart sensors they should daisy chain, if not you need a hub. The only thing to really watch is that you get the wiring the right way around as being just 3 wires they can go the wrong way easily. If you have no luck then maybe post a video showing it all in detail. Best of luck

@modellermark2 We switched from a single to twin axle last year and our drive is wide enough for 2 caravans. We could park the single axle on the far side of the drive creating "privacy" from the neighbour. Can't do that with the twin axle as I found when trying to spin it on its axis the first time we got home with it. Interesting to see the effort you went to with the "rotator"...well done. Notice none of the replies asking why don't you reverse it the length of a football pitch with barely inches to the sides have taken you up on your offer for them to come and show you how it's done....that would have been a great follow up video!

The same offer goes out to yourself as to the others that said that - if you want to come and bring your equivalent sized twin axle down and show me the technique of reversing down the 50m single track lane and into the tight driveway then I am happy to watch and learn - I will even video it and put it on my channel to help others. But currently as it has just inches to spare coming out forwards I am not prepared to risk damaging my van in reverse.
