  • This model is made with meccano parts and compatible ones.One hit and miss four strokes gas engine for translation and one electric motor with planetary gear box for steering.Gleasman steer drive including two standart differentials gives full power to the tracks when turning.hit and miss engine is a type of internal cumbustion engine that is controlled by governor to only fire at a set speed, it was conceived at the late 19th century.Output of the engine is fixed so we have to use mechanical friction disk variator to adjust running speed.All functions are 2.4Ghz RC radio system controlled.

    I kind of want to see this concept but with the drive mechanism similar to what is used in diesel electric locomotives, aka generator + esc + dc motors...

    are the onboard electronics for RC etc powered by the engine also?

      my guess in no. looks like there would be a lipo for the 2 or 3 dc motors and rc controll. it could be that there is a alternator type device there (fast spining dc ith voltage reg.) but id drive such a device of the flywheel

      @@olivvapor4873 Zippo fluid is Naphtha, which should also be available under that name, in hardware stores as an additive for certain paints. It's the same stuff. Technically, it is an extremely light oil; evaporates very quickly, and takes fire at a lower temperature than gasoline.
