Building the AMPhibian
http://amp-phibian.blogspot.com/2014/01/time-for-more-upgrades-to-amphibian.html
Saturday, January 11, 2014. Time for more upgrades to the AMPhibian. The epoxy skin job has held up well, no more cracks in the two years since I did it, so it's obviously time to stress it even more. One large drawback of the plastic bathtub design of AATV's is the lack of mounting points for any sort of equipment. The solution is to make an angle iron "belly band" that goes around the perimeter seam. Now the plan is to get two 24 Volt linear actuators to move the blade up and down, each running off one...

Building the AMPhibian: A wee bit of a problem here....
http://amp-phibian.blogspot.com/2008/11/wee-bit-of-problem-here.html
Monday, November 3, 2008. A wee bit of a problem here. So what happens when you are coasting backwards a little too fast and hit the brakes, just as you go over a steep bank? Now, in hindsight, why the hell there was no rollcage? I'm glad to see you are OK! December 16, 2008 at 9:22 AM. It was on the "to do" list, just hadn't gotten around to it. Frankly, up until this point, it felt very stable. I have an old Blazer roll bar I think I can modify. December 16, 2008 at 9:37 AM. PS: Very cool EV! A wee bit...

Building the AMPhibian: The Batteries arrive
http://amp-phibian.blogspot.com/2008/05/batteries-arrive.html
Friday, May 2, 2008. The new Odyssey batteries arrived today. Now the only pieces I'm missing are the throttle and battery cables. Thanks for posting your project! I'm very interested to see how you AMPhibian performs. I have a similar ATV that I want to convert. It's a skid-steer 4WD. If you search for "wheelchair buggy" on youtube you'll find it. I'm looking forward to following your progress. Good luck and I hope it exceeds your expectations. May 3, 2008 at 5:30 PM. May 3, 2008 at 7:03 PM.

Building the AMPhibian: The project vehicle
http://amp-phibian.blogspot.com/2008/02/project-vehicle.html
Friday, February 15, 2008. Behold, the Attex. It's a 6 wheel drive, amphibious vehicle, probably mid 1970's vintage, skid steer, 2 stroke powered, and lots of fun! However, because of the 2 stroke it's loud, smelly, polluting, and has a narrow powerband that doesn't come into play until you rev the motor up and get the ramp clutches going. That's fine for steady high speed but not great for low end torque and slow speed maneuvering, which is what I need. Here is the solution. Battery cables and terminals?

Saturday, April 12, 2008. Update on the AMPhibian. On the conversion side the motor mounts are just about done and I need to mount the contactor and controller. I should have some pictures up soon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Update on the AMPhibian. View my complete profile.
