Remote-Controlled Tracked Carrier – FAE RCU 75

Maximum power and efficiency for demanding land clearing on slopes up to 55°.
The FAE RCU 75 is a compact and extremely powerful 74 hp remote-controlled vehicle, engineered for maximum operational efficiency in hard-to-access areas and steep gradients of up to 55°. With an operating weight of 3,470 kg and a high-profile rubber track system, this unit ensures superior traction and unmatched stability. It is the definitive professional solution for maintaining green spaces, roadside infrastructure, and demanding forestry tasks where operator safety is the top priority.

Large description

Engineering and Design: Extreme Stability and Robustness.
Born from FAE’s extensive experience in designing heavy-duty carriers for the PT line and Demining systems, the RCU 75 features a reinforced steel structure with integrated, protected components to withstand the harshest environments. A key feature is its robust undercarriage with an independent hydraulic variable track gauge, allowing the tracks to expand from 1,700 mm to 2,100 mm to maximize stability on highly inclined terrain. The automatic tensioning system for the high-profile rubber tracks ensures the equipment always operates with maximum traction and reliability.

Performance and Power:
Intelligent Kohler & Danfoss Integration.
At the heart of this unit is the 74 hp Kohler (Rehlko) KDI 2504 turbo aftercooler engine, fully compliant with Stage V emission standards. Its hydrostatic transmission utilizes electronically controlled Danfoss pumps: two 28 cc pumps for precise, independent travel and a dedicated 45 cc pump to guarantee peak performance for the mulcher. Thanks to the Load Control system and electro-hydraulic management, the machine automatically prioritizes the attachment’s workload and prevents engine stalling, enabling travel speeds of up to 7.5 km/h.

Versatility and Technology:
Total Control and Multi-functionality.
Integrated control units and sensors ensure optimal performance at all times. The operator uses an ergonomic remote control with a 4.5″ display (or 3.5″ depending on configuration) to manage all functions from a distance of up to 250 m. Furthermore, the FAE mobile app allows for real-time parameter monitoring and scheduled maintenance management. Thanks to its universal SAE attachment plate, the RCU 75 is a multi-purpose tool capable of mounting not only FAE heads but also third-party skid steer attachments.

Fleet Compatibility:
The RCU 75 is a versatile platform compatible with a wide range of FAE tools:

  • BL2/RCU75-150 Forestry Mulcher: Featuring Bite Limiter technology for vegetation up to 15 cm.
  • PMM/RCU75-175 Flail Mulcher: Equipped with swinging hammers for grass and shrubs up to 8 cm.
  • SCL/RCU75 Stump Grinder: Designed to remove stumps up to 40 cm.
  • RPL/SSL-45 Road Planer: For asphalt milling with depths up to 17 cm.
  • SAE Attachments: Compatible with third-party sweepers, wood chippers, mixing buckets, and forks.

Frequented Asked Questions  

1. What advantage does the variable track system offer?
It allows the vehicle’s base to be widened independently for each track, lowering the center of gravity and ensuring maximum operational stability on extreme lateral slopes of up to 55°.

2. How is daily maintenance simplified?
The vehicle features a self-cleaning radiator with a proportional reversible fan that automatically ejects debris, keeping the engine at an optimal temperature and reducing downtime for cleaning.

3. What safety features are in place for signal loss?
Through the FAE mobile app, it is possible to manage the unit and regain control in the event of a remote control signal loss, ensuring the machine is never left unattended in critical areas.

4. What is included in the equipment delivery service?
Each unit is delivered with a user manual, full parts book, and CE certification. Additionally, we include 1 day of technical training and on-site commissioning to ensure safe and efficient operation.

5. What is the warranty coverage?
The RCU 75 comes with a 1-year or 1,000-working-hour parts warranty (whichever comes first), backed by FAE’s official technical service.
