3D model description

An RC tank which shoots silly string. Based on a cheap tank chassis kit from Banggood, an Arduino Uno clone, a cheap Arduino motor shield clone and 3D printed parts.

This is a true multi-discipline DIY project with electronics, coding, assembly and 3D printing involved. All files are provided free of charge for you make the tank at home by following my video guides:

Part 1 (Tank chassis assembly, wiring, Arduino code and RC setup): https://youtu.be/VSH3wM5euVE
