efferman Posted August 18, 2013 Author Posted August 18, 2013 unfortunately there is no ackermann geometry in this steering system Quote
Technyk32231 Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 Why are you using those old type wheel hubs (steering arm) with new type suspension? What do you mean, new type suspension? Quote
rm8 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 What do you mean, new type suspension? Suspension arms from 8070 and steerng knuckles from older sets Quote
Technyk32231 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Suspension arms from 8070 and steerng knuckles from older sets Those are the same knuckles used in 8070... Quote
rm8 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) the steering pivot point is closer to the wheel and with the newer ones the tires dont fit in the mudguards when the steering is at max angle and the suspension is fully compressed new seats a little flat progress Those are the same knuckles used in 8070... the steering pivot point is closer to the wheel and with the newer ones the tires dont fit in the mudguards when the steering is at max angle and the suspension is fully compressed new seats No, these one are different Second photos shows that wheel are one the axle and not on 3 pins.

efferman Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 iam very happy that i have built a test chassis before i going to build the boss rear axle. one battery box or receiver seems not enough for a speed setup. after two meters of driving the overload protection cuts the curcuit i think i have to think about the gear reduction Quote
Zerobricks Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 I like the way the abttery bos, servo motors and RC motors all act as chassis! So simple, yet light! Quote
efferman Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 yes, that is a big advantage of the battbox. unfortunately it doesnt deliver enough current. which battery setup do you use when u use two buggy motors? Quote
MrNumbskull13 Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 yes, that is a big advantage of the battbox. unfortunately it doesnt deliver enough current. which battery setup do you use when u use two buggy motors? Are you using V1 or V2 receiver? Quote
efferman Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 it is a V2 with two 50cm extension cables, because i dont know where my short ones are. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 I may be wrong but the rc unit would be better,that is what Sariel uses....sometimes he uses two of them... it is a V2 with two 50cm extension cables, because i dont know where my short ones are. In a moc? Quote
rm8 Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 yes, that is a big advantage of the battbox. unfortunately it doesnt deliver enough current. which battery setup do you use when u use two buggy motors? Only two independent V2 receivers with independent battery blocks, small are preferred if you want to save some weight. Welcome to the "Buggy motors owner club"! Quote
AndyCW Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 I use a separate V2 receiver and lipo battery box per motor. The limit on this setup is the current limiting properties of the battery box. Those wheels direct drive off of the buggy motors will be hard to keep up with utilizing the IR remote. It gets away from you very easily. v/r Andy Quote
efferman Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 ok, i have tested a different setup with my servoswitch system now it works, but it is to fast for the ir remote so i have made the decissicion to use PF-L motors for the Boss. this will me give more room for a stable frame Quote
timslegos Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 How did you get it to work with only one v2 receiver? tim Quote

camaudio Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 couldn't you have a servo directly turn the speed control on the 8878 Quote
efferman Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 sure, but at this way iam more flexible when there are more curcuits btw, a short vid Quote
timslegos Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 So the two motors are attached to the two switches then the servo motor turns on the switches to drive? How does this circumvent the problems before? tim Quote
07jkearney Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) This works because the switches are connected directly to the battery pack(s), thereby circumnavigating the receiver. (Which causes the problems) Edited for grammar Edited August 22, 2013 by 07jkearney Quote
efferman Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 i can use two battery boxes with one receiver and i have no loss through the receivers Quote
timslegos Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Ahh I see that makes perfect sense, thank you! tim Quote
efferman Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 the rear axle for my modified boss is finished. i use a 2 to one reduction of the faster output. Quote
