Re: [TANKS] Re: M1A1 Abrams -- Progress
Looking good. Just a suggestion, I've generally had a better experience with watching YouTube videos, as they load a lot faster. Also consider having the camera fixed, the video was a bit shaky at times. Regardless, the progress looks good. -Gregory On Fri, Mar 5, 2010 at 3:45 PM, Mark_123521 wrote: > > Another video: > It is 16 MB -- may take a while to load > The drive gear ratio should produce 5.5 MPH > > > http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z65/mm123521/?action=view¤t=HPIM0774.flv > > Mark > > -- > You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group. > To post a message, send email to rctankcombat@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe, send email to rctankcombat-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > Visit the group at http://groups.google.com/group/rctankcombat > -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.

Another video: It is 16 MB -- may take a while to load The drive gear ratio should produce 5.5 MPH http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z65/mm123521/?action=view¤t=HPIM0774.flv Mark -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.

[TANKS] M1A1 Abrams -- Progress
Got a track on one side! http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z65/mm123521/HPIM0778.jpg http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z65/mm123521/HPIM0773.jpg Video of track moving: Its running directly off a 6 volt battery. Hull is blocked from moving forward and track is skidding on the concrete. It is drawing 10 amps. The track running free (lifted off the ground) draws 3.5 amps. Hull as shown weighs 50 pounds + 7 pounds for the single track. http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z65/mm123521/?action=view¤t=HPIM0775.flv Mark -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.

[TANKS] Re: Where to..
regory and Clark... Yeah, DSL has a smaller footprint but the builder (Me :-) ) has more experience with Puppy Linux (and OpenSuse, and Redhat, and SLED, and SLES, etc.). Yeah, I could attach a bluetooth dongle and a Wiimote but why? Heck, I *could* put a dongle on it and control it with my cellphone but again I ask, why? It is not that I am going to use the pc to control the tank (I think I'll use a PS2 controller and C6C), but rather use it (the PC) to run some auxiliary, none critical, fun to have, things. I work with servers, networks, firewalls, etc every day, I do want video from my tank but I don't want it begin to resemble my 'work'. :-) Cheers, Fred (I'm sorry I ran over your cat, I was aiming for your foot) Thomson -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
