    3d Printed No prep build

    It kind of is .. its a stretched rustler chassis so it almost holds a standard and a shorty without spacers so the one pictured is for that battery bay. but yeah I started printing spacers a while back instead of using foam blocks and what not.. 2 walls,3 top /bottom and like 5% infill and...

    3d Printed No prep build

    Little update on the solid axle set up. I have established that with all the motor and transmission weight being static unsprung weight the MOA set up just doesn't produce enough weight transfer to maintain traction off the line.. It works nice with like 13.5/10.5 power , but for any more than...

    God I love 3d printers .. from drawing to prototype overnight.. BTW using up some partial spools , so this first couple drafts are going to be rainbow chassis.. Also including a short vid showing rear end articulation. https://rumble.com/v18ootg-110-nprc-4-link-moa-ptorotype.html

    3d Printed No prep build

    As I have been building the 2nd chassis for my son I have also been tinkering toward the actual intended direction of this project. A 4 link , MOA style rear end .. For right now I decided to use a proven drive train as I start tinkering with the 4 link so I am printing a rear end that will use...

    3d Printed No prep build

    So I have been running the crap out of the pink Camaro tweaking and tuning the 5900 sensorless system. with the 2s batteries (25c) I have the best I can get out of it in 132 is the first few passes I ran with it. That being said what I have been able to do is test things like the durability of...

    3d Printed No prep build

    You must not have read my post .. It was totallly my fault , I jammed a bolt into a blind hole that was too long.. would have split no matter the orientation.

    3d Printed No prep build

    well I FINALLY broke a printed part.. I broke the front bulkhead , BUT it was my fault by putting a bolt that was too long in the bumper holes and cracking it along a layer line.. So I have to call that one user error..

    3d Printed No prep build

    so I got some paint on the shell.. Not exactly what I had in mind ,but I couldnt sell my soul to lay my hands on some liquid mask right now, so a simple 2 color scheme it is!!

    3d Printed No prep build

    That my friend is the whole point.. Experimenting and seeing just how far you can take "self production" .. as long as I have a printer , I never have to worry about "parts availability" for almost 90% of this build.Any changes I want to implement I am in full control of.. For example this car...

    3d Printed No prep build

    Well I still dont have paint on the shell because I am waiting on some new liquid mask to arrive, BUT I was able to get some first passes on the car.. My 13.5 /sensored system of choice is on backorder until june , so to get some chassis tuning done I went ahead and spent a whopping $55 on an...

    3d Printed No prep build

    I figured the best way to go forward was to start printing out some parts and see what available free files are good, what ones need some help , etc. So I started by using a rustler/bandit chassis and stretching it by 49mm and splitting it into 2 halves that bolt together so It will fit on an...

    Alright guys, My name is Chad , and the purpose of this build is to build a no prep drag car that is as much 3d printed as possible while still maintaining enough performance to be competitive in the class. That being said , the front end will be slash build based as those parts are already...
