Semi-Realistic Tank Tracks with Suspension

Description
This was just an experiment i did to see if i could, didnt plan on uploading but I decided to anyways!

Doesnt turn very well without the tracks falling off and the "drive wheels" arnt the best working but they kinda work

Feel free to use this for other creations or what not, just give credit!


Peace! - Ragweed

Maybe replace the lower actuators into the axle with the wheel brick? Ibe played around alittle with with but wasnt able to ge anything lined up like i had it here

OI. It seems like what I said wasn't the case. The more testing and editing I do, the more it seems like it'll be just like normal suspension with actuators.

This also means that you might have a chance on adding a chassis!

I also found something rather important about your creation. The suspension. It shouldn't work. IF it were to use actuators. But it works and without the use of actuators. I will definitely continue on trying to make suspension to work on my creations, mainly using this as a base model.

Yeah, youre right there.... though something i did find is that when you turn in this, the acuators have some side to side play and that allows the tracks to slip off. I hope that helps!

One problem. You will most likely not be able to put a chassis on it due to the suspension. Like the ones I have.

Man Id Appericate it!! Ive been messing with them a lot lately but am having issues keeping them in place! Id love to try to build this into a panzer or a t-34 but im not gonna put that much effort into it unless the tracks work better! Thanks though!

Also, the tracks are rather glitchy. I'll see if I can fix that also.

The suspension works extremely well! I love it! I'm most likely going to make this better. Of course, credit will be given.

My thoughts:
Suspension, better than mine! (I hate to admit it lol)
The speed and turning aren't really good.
That's not how you use the teeth. If you look at my "Working Tracks with Teeth", it shows you pretty much how it works.
