3D PRINTED RC MINI TANK

4 жыл бұрынThanks a lot to space domains for sponsoring this video, check them out here: www.get.space
Hi everyone! I made an RC 3D printed mini tank. It is an amazing toy for the shop but it is designed to be used outside, on the sand and dirt. I cannot wait to test it outside. The entire tank has been printed in PLA including the GT 2 big pulley inside. The Pulleys and sprockets are press fitted into the M8 rods which works incredibly well.
I developed a new method to install the pins in the tracks that requires no tools and no extra parts, just a single piece of filament, a real time saver.
It took a while to design this one as I wanted to publish the files so If you want to make your own go to my website:

Idea for the treads: three-part tread segments. The main frame of each segment has a rectangular hole in the center to accommodate a rubber or similar material designed to provide traction on smooth surfaces on one side. On the other side, a bolt or similar technique to hold the adhesive part in place so that is does not come off of the tread. If you had an entire tread with that design, you would see a great increase in traction and acceleration on smoother surfaces. Cheers!

I'm impressed that your gears hold on the Axel's so well. I built a 3D printed gun that used spinning disks to launch 9mm pellets (also printed) and the disks would get shocked on launch and move a bit which created heat which caused the hole to get slightly larger each round fired until it just spun freely.

I've been having a lot of fun building this tank. Thanks for sharing the design. But if I could make a couple of suggestions based on my experience: - a wiring diagram in the documentation would be nice. Just a simple one that shows the motors connect to the ESCs and then to the same battery. One to channel 2 another to channel 3 on the receiver. - you need to use 2 counter clock wise motors. Luckily I bought 2 of each.

try printing 4 layers of TPU then switch to PLAY at 240c and 15mm/s for the interface layer then ramp up to 50mm/s and slowly bring the temp down a bit to 220c to print the treads. this way you get dimensionally accurate treads of PLA but "tpu feet" for traction.

Am I the only one that thinks if he simply added teeth or tire style grooves to the tracks it would have far more grip? Think something like paddle tires, or the texturing of an ACTUAL tank tread. Alongside that maybe an increase in weight would also add grip at the cost of speed. Otherwise phenomenal build, the way the drive sprockets mate on a singular output shaft is something I'll need to start using!

Hey man, awesome video! Don´t know if to adress this comment in spanish, but I´ll do it in english:) I love the tank design and it looks awesome, but I would like to suggest some upgrades for the minitank. 1.- Try gearing the wheels for the tank´s tracks, since you get a lot of speed, bot you wont get much tracktion, and by gearing it, it would make it a really good climber. (PLA gears work great, and adding a little bit of silicone lube makes them work great) 2.- Also try raising the chassey a bit, it has a very low clearence and in a offroad track, it would loose much speed by the chassey dragging on the surface. 3.- Make the tracks have a litle notch on them so they grip better on surfaces, since you can see on the vid how the tank slips. Anyhow, looks awesome and seems very fun. Keep it up man!
