INTRODUCTION

This is the Tracks for the M548 RC 1/10 scale model. I've tested the model and, although it is not finished yet, it seems to work propperly. You can see it working in the following links:

ASSEMBLY

FreeCAD

I'm very proud to say that the entire design has been done using FreeCAD opensource software. I must thank all the developers. Without you, this project wouldn't be possible!! For this particular case, I highly recommend to download FreeCAD in order to see how to assemble everything. This pieces are a litte bit complex and the assembly files will help you a lot to understand how to come all the parts togetherIf you want to download this software for free and visualize the assemble, you can do it in the following link:

Links

In this case, you will need to print at least 69 links for each side, so this make a total of 138 links. The links are joined using metal nails (44 mm long and 2,2 mm diameter). The other part of the link (the jag that fits the guide wheels gap) can be assembled with a little bit of Cyanocrylate The links are very tight to the sproket tooth. That is why I also give you the FreeCad files in order to you modify the links to your necessities. If you have any problem, please just let me now.

Recommendation

I highly recommend to print a small number of links and be sure that they fit the sprocket. Otherwise you can loose great amount of time and plastic. So be sure that the movement between the sprockets and the chain is smooth enough before printing all the links.

Hardware

In order to assemble all the parts of the suspension and wheels, you will need the following stuff:

140 x nails (44mm x 2.2mm diameter)
