@@dominikmilien Hahah that's ok Dominik. It was a play on the title of this channel "Tugs". In Bangkok you have massage shops that provide a sexual hand finish after your massage. These sexy massages are also known colloquially as a "rub and tug", as the masseuse rubs your body with oil then "tugs" on your genitals. Hope that description helps with your understanding. Here's what the Urban Dictionary says: "Rub and Tug. A name for a Massage parlor or place in which after the massage is given, it is ended with a hand job. aka Happy Ending".
Watching the video. It’s clear you guys brainstormed and wanted to make the best possible product!! The ability to rotate different directions is cool!! Very cool!!
Mr, Patey - a suggestion, if you haven't thought about it. Add a dock for the hand controller at the top of the tug. So you always know where the hand controller is. And perhaps have it recharge the hand controller from the tugs batteries.
I would love one these for my trailers... while I don't like keeping loaded trailers, sometimes I don't have a choice, and in those instances, I have to park them in the open so I can easily link up. A device like this would amazing to get the trailers into tight spots where they can't easily be seen, stolen, or take up unnecessary space. Heck, I could park the trailers backward if I really wanted. Fantastic product beats the pants off the manual control ones.
Mark and Mike, you guys are a great inspiration for me, I opened up an aerospace tooling company, my motivation has been Best Tugs. if I operate similar way you guys do pretty soon I'll buy my own plane and will need one of your tugs in my hangar!
I watched Mikes Draco and Scrappy videos I never knew Best Tugs were remote control plane tugs. That’s awesome great little tool to push your 3 million dollar epic around
That particular model is. That one is remote, or " r " for short which is why they call it " romeo". I only know this from watching Mark doing a UA-cam factory tour a month or so ago
God danm it that's smart i dont own a plane and i have no idea how to fly . i need one of thoose ASAP.. il install a chair and scoot around all day long .. even mount a lil bell on it
Anything from the World Famous Patey brothers is bound to be Top Notch quality. Their research and development is incredible on everything they do not to mention Awesome Integrity.
Mark, nice job on the explanation of this tug’s function. I see comments below where people who don’t even own a plane would buy one - that’s the power of a good presentation. You might want to put a graphic at the end that lists this tug’s most-important features that differentiate it from the inferior tugs of competitors. Keep up the great work!
NICE!!! I do not have an airplane... but now I want a Best Tugs Lazy Suzan.... jeez I wish I had that back in my KC-135 days... ( yea I know .. weight!! ) God.... I would have been King of the Ramp..lol
With those epoxy finishes, you can add a grip additive to the finish when mixing the two parts together. Makes a massive difference to grip levels and doesn’t really affect the sweeping etc. back to the tug, very impressive Mark. Not hard to damage nose gear if you’re careless .
Wish I had one of them years ago trying to put a citation 650xl in a hanger an also rotating rotor blades on an agusta 109 to clear the tail . You did a great job designing it
The newer version has a remote that will also position the airplane, contact the tower, start the engine and use the new Garmin TakeOff and Landing hands off autopilot assist to deliver the plane to several thousand airports within the fuel range of your aircraft. Or for fun, you can position the prop's spinner within an inch of the hanger's bathroom door. Great for surprising your friends.
I could have used one of these when I was about six-years-old. My dad had a Cessna 337 Skymaster and my dad, brothers, and I were pulling it out of the hanger and instead of pushing it by the wing pylon like I should have been, I was pulling in front of the wheel and it run me over and twisted up my leg. Now when I'm sharing campfire stories, I can honestly say that I was run over by an airplane. My ankle was all broke and I got the typical "walk it off" from my dad. lol! We were a lot tougher back then. I crawled around for two weeks after that.
I like to watch the Hangar 10 videos. They are using another remote controlled tug that appears to be working quite well (although it was shot in Europe, it also seems to be a US product). But after seeing this demonstration, I think the Patey product is of better quality.
One feature I see but you didn't demonstrate, was the ability to either have the tug backing when the plane is backing, or having the tug driving forward when the plane is backing.
Great tech. You should take it to the next level using wireless sensors (camera/sonar) that can be attached to the wing tips and tail to help the operator move the plane without depending on sever people to help you spot. With a little more SW it should be able to return to its parking spot on its on. All of this tech exist, its just a matter of packaging it for this application. Have fun.
We use a similar product at Heathrow T5. The amount of problems with them such as water ingress during rain and signal loss have caused oversteer issues on the NLG. It’s a very expensive way to ground your aircraft due to convenience.
But don't worry, if your floor is dusty and the wheels slip and you just DON"T feel like cleaning up that giant floor, because in 2020, we will be releasing the new SCOOBY-TUG, while you and your plane are sleeping SCOOBY-TUG will come out and sweep-mop that gnarly hanger for you!
It looks like the Best Tugs might be the best tugs in the world. So, the only question left is how much does it cost to get the best, and is it worth it? I wonder if Mike will answer that... 😏
Funny at 5:00 he doesn't show it loading up again since it was no longer backed up against chocks. I can only guess that this tug is useless unless the plane has chocks behind the wheels.
Should have a backup hole so you can but in a arm to override it so you can keep using encase something happens to the remote. Ie; dropping in the toilet.
Have you offered to make a remote tug for Virgin Galactic? Their space ship lands with a front skid. At the moment a bunch of guys with a hitch and a 4x4 tow the space ship after having waited to be sure that any flight gases have dispersed. How much cooler if a remote Best Tug picks up the nose skid just after the space ship has stopped. Then the pilot could "Tug Taxi" straight to the apron without any outside help?
I want to buy this thing and I don't even have a plane!
Same here
Ride it to the stores
@@Dee-nb4rk yeah that would be great
Lucaplayz I know right!
me too
The best tug I ever had was in Bangkok.
I don't get it

@@aussiesam01 oh, thanks for explaining, now you get your like 😄
@@dominikmilien ;-)
I thought it was because it's "Bang Cock"....
I don’t know why I’m watching this. I don’t have a plane yet I watched the whole video. Lol
AlexKorobov: is it...
COVID-19?
because hes a great salesman and makes you interested in the product
holy crap dude.
Seeing that tug makes me want to buy an airplane! lol Seriously though, looks like a great tug.
His wife didn't want a dog because it might pee on the floor. So he started walking his aircraft.

Doesn't look like your comment got any play from Mark. I like your idea however.
@@dabneyoffermein595 He has replied to it elsewhere. And he also liked it.
@@AllanFolm wonderful, I think it will be handy once incorporated. It's probably already in Solid-Works
OMG, that's N504SM! I helped work on that plane getting those inner gear doors. Great to see they are still holding up.
Hi, I am new to learning about Best Tugs and I want to commend you on your outstanding engineering. Your design approach is fantastic.
I always wondered if "best" tugs was marketing BS or deserved. This video answered that question! Good show!
A sophisticated tug with all the needed features designed into your device. And remote control as a bonus.
Mike….put some wings on that thing and let’s see it fly :). “Brilliant”
You guys are amazing! Loved the part where you can give it "the boot"!!!
I would love one these for my trailers... while I don't like keeping loaded trailers, sometimes I don't have a choice, and in those instances, I have to park them in the open so I can easily link up.

That’s one strong hover board 😂
I've already proto'ed a wheel cradle attachment that will be a toolbox caddy. But then, I'm insane.
Gavin- soon to be a summer Olympic Event, Patey Toys inAction. Can’t wait.......
Perfect name for the perfect tugs. BEST TUGS
You guys don't fool around. Top notch product.
10 X design, quality, & performance. Very impressive Mark.
Mark and Mike, you guys are a great inspiration for me, I opened up an aerospace tooling company, my motivation has been Best Tugs. if I operate similar way you guys do pretty soon I'll buy my own plane and will need one of your tugs in my hangar!
The Romeo is awesome - Looking forward to getting one!!!
Man oh man, this tug is slick! If you built a radio controlled lawn mower, I’d buy that too!
I watched Mikes Draco and Scrappy videos I never knew Best Tugs were remote control plane tugs. That’s awesome great little tool to push your 3 million dollar epic around
That particular model is. That one is remote, or " r " for short which is why they call it " romeo". I only know this from watching Mark doing a UA-cam factory tour a month or so ago
God danm it that's smart
i dont own a plane and i have no idea how to fly .
i need one of thoose ASAP.. il install a chair and scoot around all day long .. even mount a lil bell on it
A full size RC Plane! I want one 🤣
This needs more publicity
That plane looks super cool
I don’t own a plane yet I couldn’t stop watching your demo. Looks awesome!

Mike that plane is freakin gorgeous! You need to custom build and hop up a Long Ez!
NICE!!! I do not have an airplane... but now I want a Best Tugs Lazy Suzan.... jeez I wish I had that back in my KC-135 days... ( yea I know .. weight!! ) God.... I would have been King of the Ramp..lol
This could be the future of airport tigs
I'm going to buy this now, and the plane in 10 years.

A brilliant piece of engineering. Well done sir.
Very smart tug!!!
Always wondered what smart tugs was Great video. GW
Wish I had one of them years ago trying to put a citation 650xl in a hanger an also rotating rotor blades on an agusta 109 to clear the tail . You did a great job designing it

I don't own a plane , but this is definitely an impressive piece of machine. Nicely done!
Great video. I don't need a best tug but I sure do want one
your condensor mic could be closer to your lapel area for better audio other than that I love my tug
Real well thought out product. Nice Mike.
Got mine on order!! Can't wait! Have an AeroTech remote tug now.....I think I'll like the weight of this tug.....more traction!! We'll see.
That thing is amazing, I love it! Great job Best Tugs.

Imagine being the guy that pulls 747s and doing that
@@patrickbeart7091 LOL! I'm sure my leg would have hurt a little worse. Trust me, though, a 337 Skymaster isn't as light as they look. lol
WOW Its true ! They truly are the Best .
I was wondering what Best Tugs was!!! Now I know!!!

But after seeing this demonstration, I think the Patey product is of better quality.
It looks as though it could also serve as a anti theft device, or tire vise in this case. I like it. Thank you for the info.!
And with DX5r Pro TX, you can buy all the RC Boats and Cars you want. Badass TX
It’s cool how many people that don’t fly are interested in this haha
One feature I see but you didn't demonstrate, was the ability to either have the tug backing when the plane is backing, or having the tug driving forward when the plane is backing.
This should be called "the best tug".. oh, wait right! :D

Go for the military business. Outstanding piece of equipment.

A Best Tug? Or a "best tugg"
Mike Fabricated Solutions Tug or tractor
A GREATTUG thanks for doing a good job
These are incredible, can't wait to use this! Awesome!!
Looks amazing. Just needs line following and auto home
As much as I want one, I dont think I could justify it for my Paramotor!! =]
But don't worry, if your floor is dusty and the wheels slip and you just DON"T feel like cleaning up that giant floor, because in 2020, we will be releasing the new SCOOBY-TUG, while you and your plane are sleeping SCOOBY-TUG will come out and sweep-mop that gnarly hanger for you!
Why not?!
It looks like a well designed tug!
Is there a emergency-stop in case of a stuck control on the consol?
Nice wheelchair base.
Beautiful aircraft.
That’s a cool tug!
Now that’s a cool tow..
Let's get this thing on Battle Bots already.
It looks like the Best Tugs might be the best tugs in the world. So, the only question left is how much does it cost to get the best, and is it worth it? I wonder if Mike will answer that... 😏
I will use this for my rc airplanes
Cool
It’s amazing now I just need a plane
Funny at 5:00 he doesn't show it loading up again since it was no longer backed up against chocks. I can only guess that this tug is useless unless the plane has chocks behind the wheels.
Mark- looking like a JR / Futaba control unit, but I know better.
Are you selling it to us? Cause you have a very good marketing strategy
The aircraft is an Epic Lt.
Who else can't afford any of this but still watching this video?
I don't know why any FBO would want to be without one.
Honest with the product! Tries to show how his product fails…. Product didn’t fail. I’ll buy it just to ride on, is there a mid tire version??
How cool is this thing...
Fact of the day:You didnt search for this
Should have a backup hole so you can but in a arm to override it so you can keep using encase something happens to the remote. Ie; dropping in the toilet.
What airplane is that ? Really nice design.
No more unhooking the scissors on MU2's.
2 million dollar aircraft is now a 2 million dollar remote control car.
0:57 I want a tug that yells
Holy cow! That’s Cool.
Looks like bend Oregon!
Reminds me of GTA
ikr the plane looms like the one in gta
*tug* life
You guys should ensure to have your web address and contact info on the description of the video.
Peeling Out ... Dig it
Have you offered to make a remote tug for Virgin Galactic? Their space ship lands with a front skid. At the moment a bunch of guys with a hitch and a 4x4 tow the space ship after having waited to be sure that any flight gases have dispersed. How much cooler if a remote Best Tug picks up the nose skid just after the space ship has stopped. Then the pilot could "Tug Taxi" straight to the apron without any outside help?
Yeah I don’t see these things out there. But I do see mall cops on these things riding them.
Now a auto dock function like those lawnmowers so you can unlock it and than I just drives to the hangar into a charger
I just wanna ride on it
O.m.g amazing to see
We often have icy ramps during the winter in MN. Could you have studded tires for winter use?
awsome tool
Who wants to ride the tug around.
lol me
