  1. yeah but im just thinking for anything in general , that includes Flak and artillery too.
  2. but if both the green axle is fixed and the red axle is fixed by the worm gear then the differential turns in the turret.
  3. well i built it and it seems to work fine but the only problem that i see is that the diff in the turret can behave like a clutch ( if too much resistance is applied it will fail to turn and transfer power back down to the green axle going through the turret) great idea, but you are kinda limited on range of motion. a pneumatic cylinder would work well for this too
  4. The axle on top. I might try and build your version just to check.
  5. heres a vid of it in operation https://www.flickr.c...291/?likes_hd=1
  6. any idea if it would be possible to have the small linear actuators be able to deploy by themselves ( without you having to use the drive ring on the right side ?
  7. not really, my computer is really slow with ldd but i can make a vid of its operation
  8. Knob gears would work well because almost any type of bevel gear will get shredded by XL motors
  9. well i built a compacted version of this with the diffrential mounted underneath it, and i works but it has problems when the elevation gear and the turret are going in different directions, ( any idea if yours does that ?)
  10. I'm gonna try to make a more compact version for future use in my vehicles. Also what tank will you be building (if it's based off of a real vehicle)?
  11. I'm gonn a try to make a more compact version
  12. I play WOT but my computer can't run the game anymore
  13. Maybe run a diffrential through the turret with some sort of gear train connected to the turret rotation to eliminate the extra movement of the traverse. If you do this it would be Best to have it in the hull because you won't have as much room as you think ( even my 1/15 tanks are cramped) the best solution would be to just put the wires through the turret.
  14. Cool idea, Maybe build smaller paddles with more blades and possibly splash guards to prevent PF parts from getting wet.
  15. "Those axles will never twist and get bent" " a m motor will work just fine" "Who needs worm gears,they're just too slow" "Why reinnforce it if it works" "Bevel gears and diffrential casings are strong"
  16. Yes, there is a PF AAA battery box in the turret too.
  17. there is 2 XL drive motors in the hull, 1 9v motor for the engine, 2 M motors in the turret ( one for elevation, 1 for traverse.)
  18. either rollers of a nice snug fit with tiles will help stabilize it . possibly making the turret smaller would help too.
  19. well this is my first post of a MOC on here so, here it is The E-100 is one of my best or most unique vehicles that i have built so far. This tank is the largest vehicle that i have built so far and it contains almost all of my bley tiles. Here are more photos and information about this build. http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/377995
  20. nice build, does it have rollers around the turret ring ? because that could fix the problem with the wobbly turret when driving .
  21. I'm planning to build a transmission for a King Tiger in 1/15 and it will weigh around 7-12 LBs. Any idea if a technic drive ring or 16t gears will be able to withstand a 1;1 ratio and a 12:20 ratio when being supplied by a XL motor ( there will be 1 gearbox and motor per side)?
