   Thank you Doug. Here are a few photos of the mechanics, inside and out.
   
   Just a standard servo for the mechanics and a 2nd channel driven from my RadioMaster TX16S tranny to switch the Amber lights on before movement starts and to switch off again when finished via a single channel electronics switch.

   Happy viewing, hopefully 🤞

   The video seems to be in my YouTube library but ‘in limbo’
   
   Perhaps, because I marked it as child safe, it’s waiting for some kind of approval before it can be accessed 🤔
   
   I’ll keep an eye on it and as soon as I can view it in YouTube I’ll post a link.

   Hi Doug,
   
   Thanks for the quick response. As soon as I posted my plea for help I realised that I was asking others to do what I should have done anyway and searched the forum for previous advice.
   
   I found a previous post from you, I think, and am now in the process of trying to upload the short clip to YouTube 😂
   
   I have not made it public but hopefully it will work from a link in a new post.
   
   Watch this space 😉
   
   Regards
   Brian

   Hi Moto,
   The video snag may be the file size.
   The site will not accept a direct upload of more than 30MB 🤔
   If your file is larger then going via YouTube is the best way.
   Interesting project. Those 'scissor lift' wheelhouses are typical of Rhein tugs, cos of all the low bridges! Look forward to seeing yours in action👍
   Cheers, Doug😎

    A couple of months ago, wow was it only such a short time ago that I joined?
    
    Anyway, CB90 suggested that a video would be in order of the bridge operation on my Egrete.
    
    Hopefully, the attached vid might work: let’s see 🤞
    
    Well, that does not seem to have worked. Do I have to upload my vid to YouTube and then add a link here?
    
    Some advice would be very welcome. Thanks
