I'm just musing out loud here, since what little mechanics I've done in Physics tells me this OUGHT to work.
My tracks are a whopping 2.6m long! Tyng's Treadmill Track System is great, but is possibly prone to slipping if set up incorrectly. What I envisage for my tank, is to use TTS, but with "drive pins" ala sprocket drive. These lock onto the inner treads and pull them around the drive wheels. I've already upgraded T027 to a similar system, and apart from the "drive pins" not matching precisely with the tracks, it seems to work very well. I am considering using this for my Challenger as well, since I have perfectly matched tracks and drive wheels. The tracks would have inner pads every 10cm. The drive wheels are diameter 10cm, and so you put a 3 evenly spaced pins to the wheel, and they OUGHT to engage perfectly. Please comment if necessary.
