Would love to download
@grizzlitn Danke.
@salvador3031 The issue here is that I was trying to replicate the suspension setup of a BTR, the Russian APC, which has long springs, anyhow I fixed most of the wheel play here but the four rear wheels like to bounce after the shocks do their work.
@MisterMasada if you attach all the wheels on one structure that will fix a lot of play and don't make the suspention as loong.
@salvador3031 I'm glad that you're glad, but dear lord the springs are finicky. I've also made some adjustments to that design but I don't feel like reuploading. I made the primary chassis 4 wide instead of 5 in order to cut down on collisions, but now the shocks make it bounce all over the place.
i am so glad to see people already making chasis.
