I TESTED THE MINITANK MARK II
Hi everyone! This week I drove 100km into France to find the largest free sand space that I could find, this video shows the results of that trip.
If this video leaves you with a taste of nothingness achieved worry not, I've used the rest of the week to completely redesign every single part of this tank (MARK III) and I'm already designing the new big tank and I have to tell you that it'll require me to design a seat...
Also there is a collaboration coming that you're going to love.... any guesses?
If there is any improvement that you think could help me please leave it in the comments, hopefully the new version will go to the printers tomorrow.
Thanks!!!

the pulley and the part that it slips over to engage the shaft, id redesign the two of them to have 2 flat sides to make sure that the pulley cant spin around the other part. also i was looking at old videos to get a good look at the parts and thought of some thing u may want to consider in the future, if you dont want to drill holes through the metal drive shaft id just get a angle grinder and make a flat spot in where the screw need to press against, which is also useful for drilling too. I would also get some dies to make threads on the ends of the smooth rods so u can use a nuts on the "wheels"
Keep going, that was interesting to see what worked and what failed. Looking forward to the next phase and design changes!
Short but sweet test.. It seems to have a ridiculous amount of power for such a small tank.. It'll probably just constantly flip over 🤣
8 Hp seems like a lot indeed... but there's already a new version... longer...
