Re: Taking Inventory
Espeefan: This will be 2WD so don't need to worry about driving front. I don't think it's possible (without extreme machining and expense) to make this 4WD.
I had same thought as you on gearhead motor (mount rear wheels directly to motor shaft) but I guess I miscalculated and the motors I bought are too long to mount back to back (see my other thread). Do you have a suggestion on where I might find suitable gearhead motors that have shorter overall body length (1 3/4" or less) and between 150:1 and 200:1 ratio? And still have good power for this?
And yes, I have heard a few times that 1:14 is too small...or at least an extreme challenge. But I have drawn it up and on paper and it seems to fit so forging ahead. The battery will have to go inside the cab.
