Strategically took the photo from an angle that prevents us from seeing his unpatented mechanism. . .very clever. 😉

Well, I'm a little disappointed. I expected the flag to self-furl when the mast came down. Maybe the next mod?

My ikss is in the classifieds also...no ones looking though

Like you, I've done lots of mods and it is in pristine condition. Me thinks I will be looking to trade her in if it doesn't sell before winter. We are looking for class c or a 2304DS by rockwood or flagstaff if we stick with a trailer.

The cabinet door under the bathroom sink had started to come apart at one corner. I removed it, noticed it was only held together with 4 tiny staples, clamped it back square with a strap and bar and restapled it together. I added an extra staple at the other corners as well. Tightened down the hinges on that and the linen closet while I had the power driver out. Before closing it up I finally got around to installing the water cartridge filter.

Do you have to remove the flag prior to lowering the posts?

It came with 2 FOBs and I just got done programming it. Now for the simple install. Glad I caught that Labor day sale.
I caught the sale too and got mine on Saturday! I can't wait to put it on our new camper we pick up on Friday.

Okay, I have to ask:

If you have to lower it to put the flag on and take it off, what's the advantage of the motor drive?? (Other than not having a long pole to deal with?)

Don't have to lower it to install flag, just tilt pole down.....the telescopic operation is for traveling and having something no one else has

And as I would expect from you, you have one of the brightest lights that put on OLD GLORY that I have seen yet. We will see what Bob comes up with? Your the only person I know that has them brass B@@@'s that will tell people nicely that they should either illuminate it at night or roll it up. I salute you Mr. Youroo......
