Title: Fn3 forney scratch
Post by: JGDurand on November 30, 2022, 09:58:23 AM
Today I present to you the Forney that I built entirely in scratch in Fn3, a few years ago. It is made from plastic sheet and motorized for on-board power.

Thanks Ray. I installed a 12V motor with a cascade of gears in order to obtain sufficient torque as well as realistic speed. I made several empirical tests in order to arrive at a good compromise. I attach some photos of various elements
