RC 2 Channel Tank

Welcome to cudacountry's SOLIDWORKS 2022 Tank.

The project is designed to 3d print the hull bodies, transmitter bodies, bogies, sprocket, idler, rollers and their axles. The tank has been created around track that is part of this project kit. The track is not designed to 3d print. A 3d printable track will come in next project version 2.0.

Also, these parts: motor, battery holder, transmitter, receiver and antenna are in the project kit.

The screw fastener SOLIDWORKS part file is from McMaster Carr.
