Description
This is a remake of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3028435
I tried to do a make but it wouldn't upload the stl files so posted a new one.
Made this using axles and shocks left over from an upgrade to my Axial SCX10 2. The 8 suspension links and steering link are M4 threaded rod with Axial rod ends screwed on. The only thing I had to buy was an SCX10 gearbox, £9 from EBAY and £2 for threaded rod so a really cheap truck if you have a box of spares doing nothing.
When I first tested it I was expecting two things. Firstly being 3D printed expected it to break and also expected it to be a bit rubbish at crawling, however I was surprised that nothing broke and it climbed things my SCX10 2 couldn’t possibly get up. So now the SCX10 sits on the shelf and I use this primarily.
I have modified and newly created some parts from the original. I have extended the wheelbase to standard 313mm so any bodyshell could be fitted but I actually like the Wltoys one. All the parts are now scale
