|  Return of the Micro-Jeep
Well, Dusted off the Micro-Jeep and did up a quick vid of some indoor crawlin' this afternoon. Color is a bit off in the video due to me completely and foolishly ignoring the poor lighting. Oh well, vid still turned out to my liking. Enjoy! http://media.putfile.com/Micro-Jeep-2-- P.S. Some questionable content in the music...........may wan't to turn it down if you're at work. ;) Last edited by bRIBEGuy; 05-21-2006 at 06:02 PM. |

Here is the build thread: Project: MICRO-JEEP So to answer your question, Bknight, if you want one, you need to get creative and build one. Check out the "Scale" forum for ideas and info, there are a couple of other SSMT-based rigs being done up there now too. | |

The wheels do turn in a standard fashion. There is a frame mounted servo that turns the front wheels via a pushrod and draglink, just like in a larger vehicle/crawler. You can see this detailed a bit on page 2 of my build-up thread: Project: MICRO-JEEP It works well for the most part, but there is some bump steer when the front axle is unloaded fully (50% of the suspension travel is negative). Of course, that is to be expected with almost any frame mounted servo set-up. | |
