I've started a StuG III. Still in the drawing stage at this point as I am literally creating a set of blueprints for an R/C StuG. At which point I'll probably post the plans on the R/C Tank Combat site for any that want to use them with some caveats tho...
Here's some of what I've got so far Specs: Scale 1:6 Lenght: 1185mm long(1340mm with barrel) Height: 460mm Width: 630mm Motors: 350w M01 c/w 9:1 gear reduction Power: SLA 12v 18ah (Qty 2) Batteries for a 24v system Track: 2060 Attachment Chain c/w attachments every link with 1 1/8th" by 1/8th C channel for the actual tracks and a full suspension. Marker: Tippman 98 with custom barrel. (Avoid electronic markers IMHO) R/C Unit: undecided Speed Control: Undecided Completed Drawings with measurements for: StuGIII_Over.xls - Overview and parts list (incomplete) StuGIII_a.pdf - Side views StuGIII_b.pdf - Front View StuGIII_c.pdf - Top View StuGIII_d.pdf - Rear View StuGIII_e.pdf - Hull Detail for construction StuGIII_f.pdf - Hull Detail - Axle and Suspension arm placements StuGIII_g.pdf - Suspension arm bearing mount detail, bearing placements on hull. StuGIII_h.pdf - Suspension Arm construction detail. StuGIII_i.pdf - Suspension spring adjustment detail. StuGIII_j.pdf - Track Construction detail. StuGIII_k.pdf - Track Tension-er Detail. StuGIII_l.pdf - Drive Train Detail. Still to come... Electronics drawings, electrical drawing, marker abuse (dis-assembly, re-mounting, magazine design, etc...), component layout, upper hull details, and then whatever else I've missed. Hey, it gives me something to do on these long, cold, winter nights in Canada. :-) -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
