I have been looking at hydraulic drive systems. I have not been able to confirm the power of them and thus the speed you could get from the unit. You are very right, it's all a great learning curve. I am using the dual brake/differential configuration but it's not necessarily the the best way either. I do notice the RPM's are quite high, presumably to get enough pump pressure to move the unit. Great job!
The Christie drive and suspension system may be 80 years old but every successful tracked fighting machine has this system at the heart of its off road capability.
You can see in the video if you pause it just after the vehicle drives off the pallets that the steering is done by hydraulic motors as you can see the small hydraulic pump with pipes coming off it which is obviously bolted to the motor which is the way that most modern excavators use for drive nowhere days it's good and smooth and a bit less complicated than having loads of belts and pulleys to create the drive but maybe more expensive to actually buy for a project like this plus you will have a big mess if a pipe bursts or hydraulic motor seals go each way has its pros and cons but I don't like to knock anyone's projects as it's all a learning curve. It's a thumps up from me I think it's a great looking and performing machine well done to those that have built it
That is Awesome! Now if they could make one that doesn't cost 10plus Grand ,so someone who needs on like myself being a paraplegic could actually afford to buy it, that would be great.
Old post know but buy an old zero turn hydrostatic drive mower and ditch the cutting deck. Little bit of fab work for track carriers and drive for the tracks and youre off. I would use snowmobile tracks and the drive sprocket off the sleds as well. My brother in law is a quad and I've put him in my Argo 8x8, seat belted him in and he had just enough movement in his shoulders and elbows he was able to drive it. Can pick them up fairly reasonably as well Good luck with whatever you chose.
something takes over you when you drive a tank... you just want to run into a car, tear up the landscape and then narrowly miss an elderly spectator running for his life!
rest of the world : well designed home made tracked vehicle brother! Muricans : i would swap the engine out for a Hellephant 1000 HP and drive with a cheeseburger on one hand yo!
The biggest thing that people have problems with is the design of the power takeoff. Can you show how that you allowed for controls from one motor, to the individual tracks.. What kind of system is it? Gears? Chains? .. More pictures or video explaining that system, the better.. thanks.
what kind of transmission or drive-train are you using.. I see you're only using one motor too power your vehicle so i'm curious how you configured your steering system
i dont know how he did it, but id use a simple clutch brake system, Where for example when you pull back the right lever the right track is de-clutched, and if you pull further back the right track, the right track applies brakes, Whilst the left track keeps spinning. thus turning,
any Plans etc? and or parts list... I would like to try, and my Brother inlaw is in a wheelchair, I have started a Mod of invacare chair using tracks for him, but I would like to do something for me. Not a 4 wheeler...lol
+Yo ski Actually it can be better than a quad id a couple ways. It had way more traction for one. In snow it spreads the load out so it stas on top of the snow like a snowmobile. And in mud the same benefits apply, more traction, doesnt sink to the bottom. Also this probably can haul more than your quad and is way more stable on hills.

Hallo Vidio good👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿from indonesia
great invention
Wicked build

👍👍👍☝️
Nice I have a ztr thinking of using the drive for one... Track type go cart
Nice toy...
I want one for ice fish’n in Minnesota!
Muy espectacular pero una cosa tan simple como un retrovisor no le hubiese ido mal.
Nice build! Whats size of petrol engine pumps and motors you have?
This is awesome! Do you have some drawings/plans for this?
Blueprints
@@astrox9097 yes
the headlamps position make it looks like mickeys ears..:)
Yes it also like the plans to build one also..can u send them to me..
The biggest thing that people have problems with is the design of the power takeoff. Can you show how that you allowed for controls from one motor, to the individual tracks.. What kind of system is it? Gears? Chains? .. More pictures or video explaining that system, the better.. thanks.
A short list of components purchased and used is that possible?
Yes thank you I have to look several times my at the debit(flow) in liter of the pump and the hydraulic engine thank you sorry for my English
well that would be the displaecment times the revs of the motor powering it. here its around 2500-3000 rpm
Good job! If you have not done a work plan at least you can perform more detailed video footage? Is this possible?
if you have not yet seen it i have made a video like this, thanks for the support!
How do you steer it? What's the tightest turn you can make on it?
Браво
A 20hp vtwin diesel would make it better
Годроход - лучшие решение.👍

thisi
what amounts the debit(flow) 5.9ccm in liter
Salve,il vostro prodotto è in vendita?Oppure è solo sperimentale?Comunque gran bel progetto complimenti.
any Plans etc? and or parts list... I would like to try, and my Brother inlaw is in a wheelchair, I have started a Mod of invacare chair using tracks for him, but I would like to do something for me. Not a 4 wheeler...lol
no real plans or parts list, pretty much builded as we went along. but i have another video looking more into the hydraulics.
Como hicieron este tanque, tienen algunos planos
Damn he was about to run over the older guy
they should call it the mickey mouse
すげえ一人戦車だ
Подпись!!
Nice work;)
Where did you get the parts for your track system? I’m looking for parts for a remote control cart to pul my roping dummy
Directly from a chinese suplier, somewhere on alibaba
Great work !!
But s that posible to buy such an engine, where and what for a price ?
Thanks❤️
It sounds like the motor is too lugged down, geared to high, needs at least a 2 speed gearbox.
It has hydraulic drive..
Why is it so noisy?
How do you made tracks? From what? How exactly you built them?
+Golden Boy they are made at a factory in china, and we have bought them new.
dotcomdk What do you think about massive production of them? You can make a great deal of money
dotcomdk I mean that vehicle, it's looks awesome
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
прикольно
Vende los planos
Hej dotcomdk Fed maskine 👍🏼 hvad størrelse bælter er det i bruger og kan i huske hvad firma i købte af ? På forhånd tak Benny
hej Benny du kan skrive på min email hvis det er, mikkel.com@live.dkl
81 comments.. on a video with 1.1m views.. sus
How is that sus ?
@@dotcomdk im joking, im waiting for this video to get recommended in 5 years to everyone.
What did you use for the tracks?
custom snowmobile tracks
dotcomdk I see, thank you for the information
Do you have plans available?
Thank you
i am sorry, i do not have any plans. we build straight out of our minds :)
@@dotcomdk do
you have the project measures? i need how to do it please
Micky Mouse March LOL
I would want to know specification engine hp pumps debit(flow) and hydraulic engine model debit(flow) thank you. gilles.
i have a video with that (Y)
gilles beauchemin I would like to see the video please I need something like this in my life
O donde lo puedo comprar
dotcomdk Are there any free plans available?
we have not made any plans on building it :)
отличный жоповоз

i dont understand this, still not as good as a quad
