2s mini RC tank for N20 motors, lego tracks
Description
Hi, take a look at my other designs https://www.thingiverse.com/BuiltBrokenGlued/designs This is my smallest version of the tank. Its as small as possible to incorporate a single LiFe 700 mah 2s battery inside the tank. I have not designed the top as yet. It will use magnets to allow easy access to the internals. **This Has Not Been Printed ** Order: Idea Description Process build Idea: I have wanted to make a Tiny tank but I planned on using 1400mah 3s batteries that I have lying around. The 3s tank https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3068121 is a big thing and I want something more compact. The base for the tank is using Lego Technic 30cm tracks along with 1x 700mah battery. This will require 6v N20 motors x 2 and ESC suitable for 2s LiFe Description LiFe battery 700mah size: 58 x 32 x 16mm ESC size : 37 x 23 x 7mm each I have tested this platform on my previous tank (See link at the top) I previously use a L298N and arduino but my design of the L298N location casued the base to be weak and the frame bent to allow the track to become loose. This 2s Tank is a more compact and solid design The picture shows the LiFe battery located in the tank. The 2 smaller yellow rectangles are a average size of 2s ESC with forward/brake/reverse. These are on ebay so are no linked here due to them timing out. A picture will be taken once they have arrived. I couldn't find a nice spot to easily mount my RX, that will be left on top of the battery. I may be able to get the tank smaller once the ESC arrive and I have printed the first model. The motors being 1200 rpm are great for speed and are ok, but trapped grass in the tracks stops the tank. I will be looking for some 300 rpm motors for off road use. Process: 2 x N20_Front_drive_wheel.stl - These are super glued onto the N20 motors 1 x 2s Lipo tank - The N20 motors with wheels are super glued in. 2 x Rear_608s_bearing_idle_wheel.stl - These are super glued onto 608RS bearings. The bearing are then attached to the tank using a M8 stud through the frame and nuts to secure it in. I've left it as a stud for now to add a little bit of weight. If you have any questions please ask, I'm open to improvement
