Silly string RC tank

prusaprinters

<p>An RC tank which shoots silly string. Based on a cheap tank chassis kit from Banggood, an Arduino Uno clone, a cheap Arduino motor shield clone and 3D printed parts.</p> <p>This is a true multi-discipline DIY project with electronics, coding, assembly and 3D printing involved. All files are provided free of charge for you make the tank at home by following my video guides:</p> <p>Part 1 (Tank chassis assembly, wiring, Arduino code and RC setup): <a href="https://youtu.be/VSH3wM5euVE">https://youtu.be/VSH3wM5euVE</a></p> <p>Part 2 (3D printed parts and assembly): <a href="https://youtu.be/aF0--y9cigI">https://youtu.be/aF0--y9cigI</a></p> <p>Shopping:</p> <p>Robot Car Chassis Kit - $65: <a href="http://bit.ly/2LOVQaB">http://bit.ly/2LOVQaB</a></p> <p>Motor Drive Shield L293D - $5.60: <a href="http://bit.ly/2Msmh6T">http://bit.ly/2Msmh6T</a></p> <p>Matek Mini Power Distribution Board - $5.60: <a href="http://bit.ly/2LLjXqH">http://bit.ly/2LLjXqH</a></p> <p>MG91 Servo x 4 - $20: <a href="http://bit.ly/2LPKJyc">http://bit.ly/2LPKJyc</a></p> <p>MH958 Servo: <a href="https://www.banggood.com/custlink/K3Km5Oft9U">https://www.banggood.com/custlink/K3Km5Oft9U</a></p> <p>FlySky FS-i6 Transmitter With FS-iA6 Receiver - $43: <a href="http://bit.ly/2JRZeEg">http://bit.ly/2JRZeEg</a></p> <p>Geekcreit® UNO R3 Development Board - $4: <a href="http://bit.ly/2JVc1Gc">http://bit.ly/2JVc1Gc</a></p> <p>My Arduino code:</p> <p>PulseIn sketch: <a href="https://www.paste.org/94266">https://www.paste.org/94266</a></p> <p>Complete tank control sketch: <a href="https://www.paste.org/99128">https://www.paste.org/99128</a></p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Prusa</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>i3 MK3</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>Yes</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> X3D PLA silver</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>All parts are already oriented.
