Little bit of money in hydraulic cylinders there. The rears are independent chain drives aren't they?

I saw that a few weeks ago, pretty impressive the amount of work they put into that.

That's impressive. Is it chain drive, or hydrostatic? (since it runs a bunch of hydraulics anyway) Looks like the front spars are set to pivot opposite each other. I wonder if it does that automatically, or if it has to be continuously adjusted to stay level.

Let us know if anyone finds a web site or forum for this guy. Love to be able to read more about the technical specs.
