Started Working On This 19th March 2025

Picture Of It In Fusion

Actually The First Time

I've Really Used Fusion

So Its Good Practice

Making Something With 

Complex Measurements Like

This.

 

(2 Motors Have Sections On The Right Of The Image)

Using A Raspberry Pi Pico And Some Motors

And An IR Reciever And Remote

Im Working On Printing The Chasis

So Ill Get Back And Add More.

Also Im Waiting On An Order Of More Motors And IR Recievers.

Got Both Motors On (With Wheels) And

I've Gotten The IR Reciever And Remote

To Work, E.G Added Some Code To Go Forwards,

Backwards And Stop On A Button Press.

I Did Have To Do Some Soldering Before

And Thats Actually The First Time I've Ever

Soldered.

It Wont Turn And I've Realised Thats Due

To The 2 Back Wheels Being Linked.

 

Working On An Interlocking System To Unlink Them.

 

 

Im Dissasembling The Pico-Tank.

It Wont Work No Matter What. Which Is Why Im Redesigning It. Into The Pico-Car.

I'll Use A Servo To Turn The Front Wheels

Which Wont Have Motors And The Back Wheels Which Have Motors Wont Turn.

Its Gonna Be A Infrared Controlled RC Tank
