For me is most improtant in pilot is joystick and all function in this same place. If you working in a few crane this is a great convenience. I hate those keys that work in a different direction on each remote and you have to constantly wonder how to use them.
I really like the piano style remote, very safe to do small adjustments only one move, can hold the "key" so if by some miracle or mistake trip or foot slips etc what ever, maybe no catastrophy.. For me the joysticks are a bit more "hazardous" and easier to make ghost moves in tough spots. Though that way when thumbs are on the bar, i can see it working kinda good. And of course i am not nearly as Pro as you. 👍 But to each their own, someone likes the mother someone the daughter. As long as operator feels comfortable.
I have tried joysticks and it's okey when you use two but when you add fly-jib and three joysticks it gets kind of hard to reach all three at the same time. I often use 4-5 functions at once and that's a lot harder with joysticks.
We had a PM crane with a very small 6 lever control from Hetronic years ago. I see its now mostly used on concrete pumps. My favorite is my Hiab control with lcd screen.
Palcom p7 is so heavy, after using it for 2 years now i jave back problems... fassi scanreco is half the weight very light.. Palfinger came out with lighter joistick so thats maybe a good news.
Can we talk about tagline techniques. Many times its just me. I use mostly choker straps and the loads are often long packs of lumber or metal roof kits and they want to spin. Trying to run a tagline with one hand and a remote with the other o feel like im not doing it right
For me, the piano style remote gives and edge to this too. Can hold the line in other hand while other plays the piano. With joysticks i find it bit more difficult.
Kul att du gick igenom kontrollen. Informativ men samtidigt roligt, du är en stjärna! Hoppas de lägger till TH-cam i nästa version 😂

Yes of course...nightmare if crane controls would switch place. 😄

@KnuckleboomsAndBikes This. My thoughts exactly.

Yes, Hetronic has also been an option on Effer cranes but never seen anyone use it...

Call your doctor. Get an extra hand installed. 🤣
No that's always a tough one...mostly I try to find someone else to hold the tagline.
