He also compares it directly to a two-hydro setup. Best for buyers debating shuttle vs. hydrostatic on a Branson/TYM 78HP who want a candid in-field impression rather than a spec rundown.
Posted by the Kapper Outdoors Modern homestead channel, an owner-operator sharing hands-on impressions from their own property.
It transitions smoothly from forward to reverse even at low idle around 500 RPM, and shifting happens electronically if you let it shift on its own without giving it gas.
The owner says it is actually faster than the hydro, but you just cannot give it gas when shifting.
The owner misses the two-hydro a little in tighter spaces, but says in open country there is not really any difference with the power shuttle.
