[MOC] Tracked Arctic Explorer

[unimog123]

Today I present a quick MOC, that I made. To start, let me just say that I actually made my first tracked vehicle exactly one year ago from today, so I thought why not make another one, but better. It features full suspension with trailing arms connected to a hard 6L shock absorber, two pairs of LED's (1 front/1 rear) connected to a switch in the cab, as well as a strong drivetrain using 2 XL motors geared 1:1. Also the Triple A battery box is placed behind the 2 XL's.

Sorry for the shortage of pictures, but as I was taking them it was snowing. I will have more pictures on my blog once I post it later today.

Very nice, with a 1:1 ratio it must be pretty fast?

Looks strong too.

Do those CV joints hold?

Thanks, actually quite slow.

Do those CV joints hold?

Well so far, yes, but it might have lost some power due to the CV joints.

Nice build! I'd love to see more detail.

I like the chunkiness of it, looks cool.

Thanks everyone! Well about the design I tried to make it simple and low profile, so not much detail.

Recently I began making instructions for this MOC and I started playing around with the suspension and tracks, and I ended up with this:

Now it's a Wheeled Arctic Explorer, even though it only has about 1 stud of ground clearance.

Instructions are coming soon to my website.
