RC BOBCAT SKID STEER ULTRA RC

thingiverse

I designed the RC bobcat myself, and these are the files you can use. If you want more information, there's a video available to watch. The link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_tvqk8mg5A&feature=youtu.be I'd love to get your feedback on my designs. There isn't much out there for RC bobcats, so I thought they were the perfect digging machine to work with. They're pretty awesome, but not too cheap. The 3D printed wheels are one of the key features of this design. The motors use an adapter that has a 12mm hex, which means you can use any RC wheel you want. I designed the 3D printed ones because they have a deep wheel insert and provide extra support for the skid steering. To get the most out of your RC bobcat, you'll need to use the one with a 6mm shaft.

Here are some of the key components: The BEC is from Modelflight: https://www.modelfight.com.au/castle-10a-peak-bec.html The big servo I used is also from Modelflight: https://www.modelfight.com.au/hitec-hs-d845wp-monster-torque-32-bit-programmable-high-response-wide-vol.html And the bucket servo is available at Banggood: https://www.banggood.com/search/spt-servo.html I'm planning to install a Dynamite WP 60A FWD/REV brushed ESC for even more power. You can find this part on Modelfight as well: https://www.modelflight.com.au/dynamite-wp-60a-fwd-rev-brushed-esc.html The motors I used are available at Banggood too: https://www.banggood.com/DC-12V-100rpm-Worm-Gear-Reduction-Motor-Metal-Gear-Box-High-Torque-Motor-p-1052858.html?rmmds=detail-left-hotproducts__4&cur_warehouse=CN If you do decide to build one of these, I'd love to see some pictures!
