Kolpen Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 After a longer break with my plow (not finished), I decided to continue with my 9020T tractor. I recently sold my very first RC conversion, a 9420T, just to start on a new one. This new model will feature a completely homemade undercarriage, with a walking beam and belttension. New tranny with Faulhaber motors and a Servonaut speedcontroller for track vehicles. A swing drawbar OR eventually a 3pt hitch to pull the European equipment… Here is some pictures on the beginning of the project: Mainframe is milled out to make room for transmission and rearaxles. Left and right side of the undercarriage is almost done. To be continued….. /Kolpen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kolpen Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 Here is a little progress on the 9020T tractor I am working on. Belttension is a little redesigned with bearings in the 'forks' instead of placing the in the wheels. The walking beam is now done. On the pictures you will see how I made the attachments to the frames. The issue is that, by moving the two frames up and down from center/zero the distance is getting bigger and when the beam is attached, it forces the frames to move inward and therefore no longer parallel. I came up with the idea, that if I let it 'rotate' over a square piece, it would spread the frames when the beam travels up and down. Also the beam will be able to travel backward (about 1.5mm) on the mid axle. As this disatnce also get's shorter. Next up is the gearbox.           Comments are welcome as usual )   Anders Kolpen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Anders this is sensational!! Although this is only one part of the model, there is a lot of worked involved and your engineering is better than any other I have seen in 1/32 models!

Johny mf Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Cool i always fancy those RC tractors! In Nordhörn there where a guy ho build a scale 1:3 schlüter supertrac and a Fendt 626LSA. I just wanted that i where that technical to build some thing like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
