These controllers are great, and will def use them again for my next project." Now it makes sense, driving the actuators separately to get your blade tilt |

Re: 3D Printed D10T Build
Haha, not much of a secret! My first try at making the blade tilt didn't go great because I was using two actuators to "tip" the blade and that caused binding when "tilting". When I built the second conversion I didn't use any for tip but had learned from the first that one side of the blade must anchored to the C frame and the other side must "float". If both sides are held tight it will twist the $h!t out of everything and you won't get much tilt on the blade. I also switched from rubber bushings to spherical bushings where the C frame mounts to the track frames. This made a big difference as well as there is no resistance at all against twist. I went back and redid my own conversion and the blade tilt and tip works great now. Lot's of trial and error but we eventually get this stuff working sweet!

Haha, yes lots of trial and mostly error. I usually get things figured out but sometimes the learning curve is steep. Happy to help any way I can....

Re: 3D Printed D10T Build
Would it be more expensive to print something like this in color? It would hide wear and tear better wouldn't it?
This project is fantastic btw, I hope to see more builds from you done like this. The article mentions casting wheels in a 3d printed mold, sounds awesome. |

Re: 3D Printed D10T Build
Very interesting build (and technic with printer). Would love to learn more about using printing. A lot of details could be made this way!
Can't wait to see your next model, especially how to make those tires! |
