Tamiya tank tread chassis mod for dual gearbox by notthatbrad

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago
Size: 180mm x 60mm x 4mm (width at gearbox mount is 70mm)
Main Body for use with the Tamiya tank tread hobby kit. The rear holes have been adapted for the dual gearbox. The "Tam_Pictured" stl is the file that was printed and used in the photos. The difference is that the gearbox is 5mm further forward in "Tam_Pictured", and there are two small mounting holes on the back. "Tamiya_Mount" has the gearbox 5mm further back, and loses the rear holes, but can better handle some tread configurations.
I have also added four extra mounting holes for mounting extra components to the base (micro servo, standoffs, etc). I will be adding an Arduino/servo mount as soon as I get those finished.
It just happened that the original screws that came with my kit hold snugly, but M3 machine screws/nuts should also work.
EDIT: uploaded pic with a more "tank" tread configuration.
