Nice work.  Indeed, PS2 wireless game pads don't generate a strong 
enough signal to get through an AL hull.  I mount my receiver above the 
AL hull, inside of the fiberglass turret to eliminate that problem. 
Paul mounted his receiver in a wooden box that hangs off the back of the 
hull.

I will be glad to make part of some publicity for your system and my idler is 
the track tensioner but not auto ajustable like on your tanks.

When I will be able to post my built on the Rc combat tank webside I will show 
it clearly .

The idler is attach to a small arm which pivot on a axle and it got a pin wich 
got in pre-made position holes that give me a solid ajustement.

When I mount the track I compress all the suspension and ajust the idler 
accordingly so the entire suspension is use to keep the tension on the track.

advertizing for the MPSS systemAlso, do you use a track-tensioner for your 
idler wheels? IMPRESSIVE work Cheers,Loic

[TANKS] SU-76 rolling out

2015-04-27 Thread Jean-Maxime Cyr St-Pierre
Hello guys,

I finaly put my tank hull into a working condition!!  It's been long since the 
last time I post some news of it...

I first made a stupid mistake when pluging my batterys to finally blow up my 
ESC, the C12C I had and some more element and wires...

After re-purchase all component and receive a new C12C thank to the super after 
market service from Frank I finally made some test on my running gear.

I had a lot of ajustement to make with the tracks and the suspension but there 
is the video of what it look like.

I had  to buy a new futuba controler and receiver cause the C12C work superbly 
but I had some signal difficulty using a wireless PS2 controller probably due 
to the aluminium hull...



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI4tNkiUXNs


Report of my video footage :

- I will have to try if it's better to use a directly 3d printed ABS srocket 
wheels cause the Smooth-Cast 305 sprocket I made are a little too dry on 
impacts...

-redesign of the inner track pad to get stronger guides theets

-redesign of the outter track to get a simple flat pad ( everybody said it, 
myself too but I get too much traction on grass and when turning and I just rip 
the grass off
  putting too much pressure on the track theeths and my running gear...

-The MPSS3 suspension from Field of Armor Tanks unit work perfectly!!!

-Work on my idlers wheels cause they both does not perfectly aligns with the 
rest of roadwheels.



Hope you enjoy the video!!
