CyberBrick Tank

My new CyberBrick Project has been published

Updated V1.2.1

Modified some detailed places according to the feedback of users. CAD file and Print Profiles all updated.

—————————————————————————————————————————————

This is a fun project based on the CyberBrick Kit. All parts can be printed with PLA, including the tracks.

It can move forward and backward, turn right or left, and, most importantly, it has a powerful tank gun that can shoot the Bambu standard 14mm Plastic ball(ZB001) with an ammunition autoload system.

• If you don't have a CyberBrick kit and other necessary parts yet. In that case, you can only buy the ZH097 kit, which contains all the necessary parts, including " CyberBrick Beginner Hardware Kit - ZK004", “10PCS 14mm Plastic ball  -ZB001”, and some Rubber bands

• If you were a Kickstarter backer, you would only need to order the parts that are not included in your Kickstarter kit. To do this, you can deselect the CyberBrick Beginner/Ultimate Kit from the Bill of Materials and order only the remaining parts: 10PCS 14mm Plastic ball  -ZB001 and 100PCS 1.4x20mm Basic Rubber Bands - RA002. (You can use the same rubber bands in the Maker's Beginner Kit-ZC002 as well. Also, you can try the other type of rubber bands you already have).

The Tank needs a CyberBrick Official Standard Remote. Please download the remote controller and follow the instructions to assemble it.

If your tank gets stuck while shooting, you can apply lube grease on the places as shown in the image below. Also, there is a screw( M2.5) under the big gear, don't forget to assemble it.

I uploaded a “Target & Anti-tank obstacle” print profile, which can help you to build your own battlefield. The target has 2 versions:  blank target and target with scores. The target can stand easily with 2 fingers press on the base, as the gif shows( others in the image are the test models, I tried 20+ times to design an ideal one).

Someone gave feedback that the shooter structure gets stuck sometimes. I modified the structure parts (Shooter-1, Shooter-2, and Turret Gear-1), to make the Turret Gear turn more easily. If you don't have the issue, there's no need to replace the 3 parts. If you have the same issue, you can print the new uploaded print profile"CyberBrick Tank-V1.1 Updated files". 

Also other users told me the tank body file's LED board screw hole is reversed to the Assembly Guide, it will not affect the function, you can reverse the connection of the LED ports, no need to print the body file again. I have uploaded the correct body file now. It's a huge project for me, so many tests and iterations, I did not notice the issue, sorry about that.

Some accessories are under development :)

The GIF below did not show the shot image because it has too few frames, actually, it shot 2 balls while moving…

It's designed to be maintained and recharged easily.

The flag size is 40 mm x 17 mm x 1 mm. You can customize your flag pattern using MakerLab-Make My Sign.

The Assembly Guide is detailed and easy to read. If you have any questions, just comment on the page, and I'll reply as soon as possible.
