Styrene work last night and some earth box testing. none of that you can see here.
Today it was time to give it a real test
Keep in mind my yard is packed gravel and clay; Not natural earth by any means.. years down i still can't even get grass to grow despite me dumping topsoil and what not on there. Anyway learned a few things today.
I was awkward on the controls because my fingers were freezing and im still a noob as is.
dont care about the tracks..but it made me laugh; yes i was trying to turn it.... yes they are too loose, no i never made a working tensioner. no im not making one now. yes i have spare tracks.
because
new SCALE all metal undercarriage will be coming soon! this one is mainly to just screw around with. its the top side im concerned about and it performed flawlessly. numerous hydro stalls and nothing broke!
yes i remated and rebalanced the motor/pump connection last night. was off center or something resulting in scary sounds. didnt know it was even possible to kink that but i guess it is!
