Herbie on Tracks

thingiverse

This is a remix of the fantastic VW Beatle model by Skipstitch (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2999483). I wanted to build a ridiculous mini tracked version of this with a Tiny Whoop FPV camera for a bit of fun. This is designed to use 2 small N20 metal geared DC Motors like these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/BQLZR-33x12mm-Gearbox-Gearwheel-Electric/dp/B01LXT00LP/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1547339968&sr=8-4&keywords=n20+motor The tracks and wheel hubs are based on the small Lego tracks: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEGO-4-x-Black-Rubber-Caterpillar-Treads-12-Drive-Wheels-SMALL-digger-tank-EXC/122892534260?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 The FPV Camera used is the small Crazypony: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crazepony-UK-Micro-Camera-Transmitter-Splitter/dp/B06XK9KX1Z/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1547340468&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=micro+fpv+camera++FPV+Camera+AIO&psc=1 As far as remote control I have a few mini receivers and brushed ESC's I'm experimenting with also looking at using an Arduino nano with mini dual motor driver (more details to come). The Chassis and the main body attach via inserted magnets in the front and rear. Update: ------------------------------------- First print on PLA and added a few components - still waiting for the rest to arrive: https://youtu.be/WyltOglNdnk
