DAGU T'Rex Metal Tank

Inside the DAGU T'Rex Metal Tank aluminum body you will find plenty of space for your motor controller, batteries, sensors, and anything else you could possibly need space for. Two top panels can be easily removed via four spring catches mounted in between the wheels. Additionally, the front hinged cover plate can be removed to affix any large sensor(s) to your T'Rex, you can even attach a custom plate to fit your preference (we’re waiting to see someone 3D Print a T-Rex head and attach it to one of these guys)! Since the chassis does have a full aluminum body it will block any electrical noise and radio signals so you will need to attach any receiver or transmitter to the outside of the T'Rex.

• All-metal tank chassis designed for all-terrain robot projects.
• Ideal for the roughest terrain with high ground clearance.
• Good corrosion resistance with aluminium body.
• Independent suspension for improved traction and shock absorption.

DAGU T'Rex Metal Tank Power:

There is plenty of room inside for batteries, the T'REX controller and a development board. The T'REX has 12V motors. The T'REX controller includes a switch-mode power supply that can efficiently supply 6V for servos and 5V for a development board. T'Rex Tank All Terrain Metal Chassis- Click to Enlarge

DAGU T'Rex Metal Tank Removable sensor panel:

The front sensor panel can be removed to make it easy to drill mounting holes for sensors. This panel can also be reversed so that sensors can be mounted further back.

DAGU T'Rex Metal Tank Maintenance:

The body is aluminium, the gears, tracks, suspension struts and wheels are die cast zinc. These metals offer good corrosion resistance so no maintenance for these parts is required. The idler wheels can be easily removed for cleaning by removing the circlip on the shaft. Be careful when removing these as they are under spring tension and may shoot off. The idler wheels have brass bushings that require minimum maintenance. A dry lubricant should be used for the idler wheels and gearbox.
