Dead_Already Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 within the next two weeks the software should be ironed out by the other guys. Either tomorrow or Tuesday I will be starting the assembly of 40 more tanks, we have 4 completed so far(thou one was physical destroyed, someone ran it over with their chair). Each tank consists of 3 boards, I will show more of that in the next two weeks as I assemble them. We will have the final 40 at a trade during the last week of July, our little competition with these will be July 29th and 30th the finals will be the 31st. Hopefully I can send one of these tanks to the hak5 crew so they can turn it into a little hak house rover. here's some pictures I took Friday bottomleft monitor is showing the 2.4ghz spectrum you can see 4 spikes that's the cameras. the bottom right monitor is the little test program to drive the tanks. top monitor is just video from the camera looking out our building.

beaver Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I would highly recommend that you look at this website: www.rctankcombat.com I'm a member of their mailing list, we are a group of people who make 1/6th scale, paintball firing tanks. Then we go and have battles with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
