Top cover for speed tank

thingiverse

This is a straightforward top cover for my speed tank built with tinkercad. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done. To ensure a secure fit, you'll need to add foam tape to the wedge that fits in front of the brace and possibly to the front surface that hooks under the gopro mount to prevent vibration from causing it to fall off. My goal was to create something simple to keep rocks and dirt out of the open-topped gearboxes and motors. When Staind releases his cover design, I'll likely use his or remix it slightly and abandon this one. I recently had a chance to test my tank in an area with high debris levels (a lawn full of clippings and twigs). While not flawless, this cover performed well in keeping grass and dirt away from the motors and gearboxes. The uncovered back end still accumulated some grass, making it easy to see the difference the cover made.
