Well, I've finally got the RC tank stripped down to start turning it into a bot. The drive-train of this thing is actually fairly sophisticated. It has separate springs (shocks) for each road wheel! I've stripped out the old RC control board for re-purposing, and there is a huge open space in the hull for the new electronics suite. So far I've identified all the wires for the LED lights, drive motors, turret AZ/EL, and the trigger for the airsoft gun. I plan on replacing the LED lights with IR LED's, since the wireless USB camera that's gonna be attached to the main armament as a coax see's into the IR spectrum. Gotta figure out how to add a GPS to the EZ-B.
