Default Re: Cockshutt 70 tractor (1935-48)

The gearmotor axles were first superglued (CA) to the little wing bottom, then i filled around the back side with e6000 (shoegoo / amazing goop). Should be strong enough, but shouldn't be awful to replace.

My first steering setup using (end of the tube) Jb Weld didn't hold, but CA seems to be working. Probably going to beef it up with some CA & baking powder paste. Servo is bonded to chassis side with e6000.

The 12v 200rpm motors wired Parallel and running on 7.2v really winds out faster than i'd like for a tractor without ROPS, so i'm going to try them in Series. (it does drive pretty well with everything ziptied to outside.)

Uh, apparently i can't read and i bought "2/3AA nimh" cells instead of the "2/3A nimh" cells i'd searched for.
And my soldering iron died.
