Posted August 10, 20159 yr Here is a model I've build for "Mad Max style" lego rally challenge. The primary in the model is its rigidity and power. The exterior is secondary. To rise up a torque I've plugged the AA PF battery box (with over-current protection bypass) in parallel with RC receiver. The PF battery box is switched on with PF M-motor plugged to the third channel of RC receiver. As a result the model drives more steadily: . Edited August 24, 20159 yr by Jim
August 10, 20159 yr Nice vehicle! the torque is ENORMOUS Just kidding :D I like the bodywork and the suspension.
August 11, 20159 yr Great model, seems very powerful indeed, but I am really curious what's the actual torque gain with that battery setup. Can you make a comparison? Thanks :)
August 14, 20159 yr Author Nice burnouts) Can you post some pictures with suspension? The model is dismounted now, but I'll look if I have some other photos of suspension. Are you interested in front or rear suspension? Can you make a comparison? Thanks :) Some time ago I've made a device for speed and acceleration measurement based on NXT ultrasonic sensor. I've measured the acceleration of the model with traditional electric scheme and with two battery boxes plugged in parallel. In the latter case the acceleration was around 30% greater.
August 15, 20159 yr Are you interested in front or rear suspension? Rear. But if you have pictures of front too, i prefer to see both)
August 19, 20159 yr Author Rear. But if you have pictures of front too, i prefer to see both) Here you can find a few photos of suspension.
August 22, 20159 yr Here you can find a few photos of suspension. In the suspension pictures, those wheels have track links! What is their purpose?
