I’ve wanted to make an electric SSQA remote control for the LA525 loader on my Kubota L3901 for a while now and finally got around to tackling it. The ideas and techniques I use should be able to be adapted and applied to a wide range of loaders. This is Part 1. NOTE: I strongly recommend watching Part 2 before buying any hardware and starting your build.
