YAY! Nice start: fun! How does that little Dinkus run? It looks as if the suspension and tracks are quite heavy in relation to the tank, so I would expect them to work rather well. Is this perchance ( ) you? https://makerworld.com/en/models/141813 ... Id-1472967
I'd bet that the others here on RCTW would be interested in what (if any) problems you had, what went better than you thought. I don't have a 3D printer but I am interested in your experience for, as I said before, it's definitely the way to go!
The tracks do work well but they are printed "print-in-place". This saves time & effort (and is noob friendly) but getting links in and out can be a pain. It's supposed to be twist and click but in my experience it's more twist and pray. I had to print several replacement links having bent some links completely out of shape.
To be clear, on MakerWorld I'm user "Printer_929" - not "Bowser", the designer of the model.
My biggest problem (but also a great learning experience) was the fact that I saw that little tank and figured I'd build that thing quickly, assuming the CyberBrick components (the entire RC aspect) would be explained along the way. That was not the case: I should have prepared myself a little better (see link in my original message).

Tank looks pretty robust. I would think it would be good for kids to use.
Yes it is. And it drives at tank speeds, not "formula 1 car disguised as a tank" speeds. As I have now learned: that is probably due to the 150 rpm gear reduction motors, instead of 400 rpm.
As they say in neighboring Minnesota here in the US, Tanker929, What a hoot! I could see my Tuesday Make Modeling Mediocre Again group getting a kick out of with little beastie.
