Tatra 815-7 8x8 Starkom

[Tatrovak]

I present to you my current creation, It is a mobile jammer on the chassis Tatra 815-7T3RC1 8x8.1R Armoured Double Cab. My model has all four axles driven and steered and also has a mechanically adjustable ground clearance since all Tatra 815-7 are equipped with an air suspension with variable ground clearance and I wanted to give this feature to my 815-7 as well. The drive is provided by 8 PF-L motors. The steering is provided by 2 PF servomotors, one controls the front pair of axles and the other the rear, the steering of these pairs is not mechanically linked to each other because originally I wanted my model to be capable of crab steering but it failed because I could not configure the control in the buwizz application so that it worked as I imagined.
One PF M motor controls the pneumatic supports via autoswitch, another two PF M motors control the change of ground clearance, one on the front pair of axles, the other on the rear, they are also not mechanically connected so the ground clearance changes separately in the front and rear.
And finally two CADA micromotors control the movements of the RCWS on the roof of the cabin. So my model contains 15 motors which are powered by four Buwizz 2.0 .

I don't believe that we need any more war machinery in this forum... but apart from this personal opinion:

What's the purpose of the outriggers?

I am also not interested in a lot of topics, which by the way, this forum, unlike military machines, is really overfilled with, but I don't care about it and I don't write it under anyone's posts, everyone can build what they want and I don't know that it would be forbidden to add models of military machines on this forum. I have to say that I am surprised that after all the Soviet and Russian machines that I have added here, someone would write this here under a machine from the armament of one of the NATO countries.

 

The supports serve to stabilize the entire machine to a perfect plane, due to the retractable telescopic masts. (My model does not contain them, I intentionaly used an incomplete piece of Starkom as a template (the one in the first photo) because I can't imitate those telescopic masts from Lego in any way and honestly I wouldn't even have anything to build them from anymore, for the construction of this model, at this stage, I have used up all the parts I have)
