Flail needs a power source.
Kick start it for the first one, then use the energy of the blast to keep it going. Not only is the minefield cleared, we have infinite energy.
two options:
- power it from the trailer electric hookup
- spool it from a winch on the front
The trailer hookup wouldn't be sufficient to handle that amp draw.
You can add a PTO to most trucks, super easy if the platform is also used for tow trucks.
I am concerned about the amperage draw on wires from the battery with that length of run, I guess an auxiliary battery in parallel could mitigate the risks.
i was assuming this was a light truck for meme reasons haha
A PTO is still totally doable, the braketry is a bit of a bother, but you are making a tow hitch mine flail so finding a longer belt and laser cutting some metal is not undermountable.
Use a wet kit with a pony motor, don't even have to modify the truck.
I was thinking of driving it hydraulically, is that what a wet it is?
Yes
