I love Ivans approach to making. Rather than try and make a finished working product, he makes something knowing that it will likely fail at first. I think this is a crucial thing for makers to understand. When you make something you should expect it to fail. You even want it to fail. It is only through failure that we learn.

@jarekmace15362 жыл бұрын
The left hand needs a rest that has a monitor for a coaxial gun camera, readouts for battery voltage, ammo count, etc., and the light switches. Too much stuff under the gun control hand can get confusing and dangerous. The barrel re-center switch should be either under the right thumb, or on a tophat switch on the right grip. A mechanical brake that engages the inner teeth of the sprocket would work for a parking brake.

I think either you’re gonna have to use a stronger filament or you’re just gonna have to get tracks that you can sit on your tank. But other than that, everything seems to be working fine that’s really the main thing that kept breaking while you were testing. Very good work I haven’t seen anyone work with filament quite the way you have.
@aaronsprojects2 жыл бұрын
Very cool. When you reprint the tracks maybe you could print a TPU Tread and bond that to the tracks to give a bit more grip and perhaps help protect the links from as much damage. For the suspension are you making the front suspension stiffer than the rear as the mass seems focused in the rear and the nose seems to dip when you drive forwards... even before the suspensions broke. For your cannon could you add a car reversing camera to the tip and put a little screen by the joystick to make aiming easier? The reversing lines would be kind of like a rangefinder.

Sir I'm sure you hear this all the time but perhaps this is the straw to break the camels back but have you considered adding something vital? cause as a theorist of physics i would imply that plastic is not a good surface to urrrm climb leaves for fully optimal surface placement and the ability to obtain grip would allow said tank to navigate in an optimal posture when compared other tracked vehicles but the addition of little rubber strips but thick enough to gain traction you can glue them on with some industrial cold weld adhesive

You could put a 3d printer in the back, so you can print parts that break in the field, also a way to convert the broken piece back into filament. Don't know the details, there's a lot to work through but a self reliant tank would be unreal. At the very least a small store of filament and printer.
