Browning's 9g Servo tanks


Recommended Posts

I've been designing and 3d printing a small T-34 tank.

I have almost no budget for the project, so instead of running on a geared motor, it runs on two 9g servos, which have proved quite capable.

The plan is to add a functional turret and a custom made laser-tag system, so it can fight against the next tank I make.

 

It's running with a spare battery and radio equipment here, but the finished version will be controlled via blutooth and have a much smaller battery.

The T34 is mechanically complete and just waiting a few electronic components and programming of the micro-controller.
Some more details are to be added to the hull, such as exhausts and tools.

Meanwhile, work has started on it's opposition.

This is a tank battle even I could enjoy.

The T-34 is now fully running via Bluetooth, and I have painted it, although I have little skill in painting.

It's opponent is running, but the upper hull and turret still need to be designed.

I am also starting the programming work for the laser-tag system and sound effects.
