[MOC] My first tracked vehicle

[Jurss]

As i had 42038, it's time for my first tracked MOC.

First motor setup. I have only pair of M motors, other are single.

Nice job for your first tracked vehicle, I like the way you did the suspension good job

As said JJ2 nice suspension setup. And nice use of the portal axles

Maybe a double decked couch on top?

[Jurss]

Thank You!

No i have time to continue.

... then i decided to put motors inside mainframe. First i had to rebuild suspension for two small wheels - move somewhere else two shock absorbers. Now they are "inside" tracks

Two 2x4 L shaped beams are to keep together gears. First version dind't kept load, and motors frame was poping out.

And then i created some body - it was really hardest and longest part for me.

Battery pack is on back as on some old tracked tractors (i don't know about new). It is also easy to remove it, to replace batterys.

Engine is not connected to motors (just now came idea to connect to some front wheel)

I thought about buldozer, but small LA are to short, 10-15M too long.

Good body, really like it!Now built a brick-built seat on top of the receiver and a new model is born!

Nice job I like very much that suspension, and transmission is so clever, simple and effective, just genius And that body looks cool too

[Jurss]

Connected motor (turned out pretty easy)

I used stried Volvo motor, which wasn't disasabmled, just removed 2 cyliders, and original gear was allready in right place

Correct way would be connect bouth tracks trough differntial. If i won't be lazy, maybe tomarrow.

Looks really good. You have inspired me to build something tracked.

First attempt, but a great one :)

Small and clever, i like this MOC. And using IR reciever as chair is fun, wires can be used as safety belt)
