Testing the Rhino with Colin Furze #robot #cnc #3dprinting #electronics #robotics #machine
Do you remember when Colin Furze built the Rhino tank and then got stuck in a ditch and had to pull it out with a JCB?
The concept was pioneered by Elie Aghnides on the 1950s. The idea being that due to the domed-shaped wheels, the more your sink into mud, the more grip it has.
Colin converted a dumper truck to build his version of the Rhino, but it originally had much smaller wheels. The motors are hydraulic, but there wasn’t enough torque to turn the bigger diameter wheels when it was really needed due to the increased leverage.
My plan is to make a slightly smaller version, and it’ll be electric, and I’ll try to get a large reduction from the motors to the wheels so I can get more relative torque. I’m also going to have a servo controlled camber angle so it can transform.
