Tracked X-Mod?

[hostyle]

Anyone thought about putting tank-like track on? Ive been thinking about it and have come to think that the best way would be to put 2, 130 motors in. One for each side, and use 2 controlers, one for each motor. This way both tracks can spin at different speeds giving you much better control.

Either that or can one electronics control 2 motors? Have thr throttle control speed and the steering servo hinder the speed. The more right you turn it the slower the right motor gets.

You'd obviously have to sut the sides of the body off, or glue a second set of tires on so the track is wider than the body.

i think that would be kinda pointless.... just buy an rc tank... duh

You could use two motors in series, reversing the leads, but then you'd half the voltage. I don't think it'd do any good really, the chassis is so low that there's really nothing much it can go over with tracks that it can't go over with wheels.

You get a point for originality.

Maybe something like Mat Tracks?
