Default More testing of the 1:16 diecast dozer conversion

Getting closer now. Really need the no brake ESC's to get this thing smoother and easier to control.

Pu t the high power motors back in and geared the final drives down to 15:27. I am also using 2 cell 850 lipos in the video. I have tried 3 cell but I think the motors just turn too fast for the gearing I have installed.

The gear motors are 298:1 with a torque at 6v of about 70in oz.

Still need an operator! I have now beveled the drive sprockets, hope that reduces the dirt clod interference and jamming.
