Really want to make a tracked vehicle, where to find treads

[TexasSP]

Too many mechanical parts. I am just trying to help him K.I.S.S. that's all. I have seen a lot of custom and scratch built track projects on rcuniverse and am going by what I learned. Although RCU mostly sucks, the tank forum is pretty good.

The other cool thing with a dual motor setup is that you can super spin.

An idler between the diff and motor so the motor could lie beside the diff.

Lotsa options.

who said you need an idler, smack a 48t mod1 spur on an outrunner motor.. just reverse the rotation.

IF, i could i would mount the diff in the rear of the vehicle. run straight output out of the diffs, run a short shaft for the drive gears. then use a long shaft collar to connect them... Ill look into it and probably mock it up :)
