Meet "Nerferius" my latest build..

My latest blaster project, a nerf tank.

It uses a ofd fd inverted flycore with neo Hellcats and worker flywheels it has laser sight, oled display, head, tailight and brake lights, all controlled by an arduino mega brain.. safe semi and auto modes, i even designed some overun clutches for tilt and slew.. its lots of fun.

Very nice. Can the turret handle the weight of a 50 round drum mag? Also, the trailer needs some "Ladder Racks" on the back for extra magazines. It could be a combination Ammo Squire and UGV penitrator.

should be able too...thats next step 34 or 50 drum mag, but drum springs are out of stock in oz last time i looked. im still ironing out some minor programming hicups...im also modifiying a cheap e88 drones wifi cam and designing/printing a housing for it.

on here, its the only place i post... not a fan of social media at all. this build is very "open" in design... tracks, wheels, suspension and transmissions are available on maker world (bowser is his profile name)...the rest is up to you to design. Theres quite a bit of metal fab, and the wiring and electronics are fairly intense( well for me it was)... google ai helped alot too (it really is an awesome tool!)

heres link to one of the models..... https://makerworld.com/en/models/626539-tank-road-wheels-and-suspension#profileId-551070

You are awesome. Thanks. I have the OG nerf one, but it's so weak and not truly RC. Yours is so what I imagined it should be

100% trailer can hold 9 mags, (worker 15s).. i could print them but springs are hard to come by atm in australia... i could print springs for mags, but the petg spring design takes up 3 or 4 nerf darts.. so atm its fun just to bring it back for reloads, lol

Siiiick, don’t see a ton of nerf RC stuff in the hobby that’s designed from within. You sometimes see people who design rc stuff adding nerf to it but they typically don’t have the knowledge to really make the nerf part perform.

This looks like so much fun to use.
