FAE's Largest Remote-Controlled Tracked Carrier Yet
FAE has launched its largest remote-controlled tracked carrier, the 120-horsepower RCPU120. Able to work on slopes as steep as 55 degrees, the RCPU120 can mulch branches, wood, grass, and small shrubs. It is also capable of cutting stumps and trimming light vegetation with attachments like a stump cutter or flail mower. The RCPU120 joins the RCPU55 and RCPU75 in FAE's lineup of remote-controlled tracked carriers.
The model is powered by a Kohler KDI 3404 turbocharged and after-cooled engine, and features a dual hydrostatic transmission for maintaining power to both the tracks and the attachment.
Equipped with a heavy-duty undercarriage, the carrier includes self-tensioning and extendable tracks, ensuring traction in sensitive ground conditions and hard-to-reach, steep terrain. Standard rubber tracks are 3.3 inches apart and 12.6 inches wide, with an option for steel tracks.
The carrier can be fitted with various attachments from FAE or third-party manufacturers, such as forestry mulchers, stump cutters, stone crushers, and road millers.
A wireless remote, featuring a 4.3-inch display and comfortable shoulder strap, controls all vehicle and attachment functions. A 2.4 GHz transmission frequency ensures reliable communication.
This is FAE's first compact remote-controlled tracked carrier with a Sonic technology-integrated forestry mulcher, improving equipment performance and increasing productivity by up to 30 per cent, according to the manufacturer.
Anti-clogging fins and a proportional and reversible fan keep the radiator clean to ensure optimal performance.
When paired with the FAE App, owners can access diagnostics, track maintenance schedules, and monitor key operating parameters in real time via their smartphones.
