    Incredible work, really well done! maybe take off the cabin and lower the center gravity a bit more, might give you a degree or 2 extra? maybe you can try to beat my recent speed record? i need competition!

    • @896gerard
      @896gerard  7 років тому +7

      No, taking the cabin off didn't deliver any advantage in degrees, because the cabin was very light. I tested for this, I would have shown it in the video if it really could do more...

      896gerard Adding as much weight as possible to increase traction (as opposed to grip) may allow you to increase the angle as your limiting factor appears to be slipping as opposed to the entire vehicle flipping. There is a Lego part which is compact and contains lead as a weight for the earlier Lego technic kits, this would make it easy to keep the C.O.G. really low.

  • @heksatek3407
    @heksatek3407 6 років тому

    Reason this worked:
    1 Yes, the 4 tracks DOES give more traction ( aka friction)
    2 the tank is quite flat, which means itsvcenter of gravity is low making it less likely to topple over it self. U can also make it front heavy to further improve this feature

    • @896gerard
      @896gerard  6 років тому +2

      Have tried to make the front heavier. Does not work, the current setup proved to be the ideal design. With the cabin on front, there is already more weigth on the front. The reason that making the front any more heavier does not work is that the added weight fights against the friction of the tracks (when the angle is so steep, the weight of the vehicle is almost fully pushing in the vertical down direction). So yes you're right that weight balancing is the key here, but I've optimized the design already for that.

      the reason this works in my opinion is because the rubber track pulls itself up on the horizontal tracks. without them you will never get up this steep. (are these rubber mindstorm tracks ??) i like the moc.

    • @896gerard

    My children had a toy octotrak that was only good to about 45°. Sort of similar to your design, but with 3 joints, 8 treads and no steering.
    How many degrees can you hit with another unit? The second and later joints won't need active steering, but will need the rubber band suspension to maintain surface contact.

  • @domchubs5836
    @domchubs5836 5 років тому

    That's cool and all, but a towel yields to the treads of the tracks... It's like having grooves for the treads to fit into so it doesn't fall. I think a more accurate test would be a solid material. And with the simulated rocks... You might as well just put it on tracks if you're going to help it that much.

    • @896gerard
      @896gerard  5 років тому

      Not true. When climbing a muddy hill, the tracks dig deep into the soil. That's what the towel simulates. Regarding the rocks: an actual rocky environment would be easier. Just build it and try it out. Then you'll know.
