Traxxas parts question.

[The RC Car]

Do y'all know if Traxxas makes their parts primarily from molds or some other way?

Could ask on the traxxas.com forum, but I'm assuming molds.

I agree with @olds97_lss. That would be the most cost-effective way to do the composite (plastic) materials.

Aren't many of the shapes too complex for a mold though? Like the honeycomb in the chassis, for instance.

The Traxxas forum has so many requirements you have to pass before you can post!

Pretty sure most things in in our lives that are plastic are injection molded. Molten plastic squirted into a form, then cooled, ejected and trimmed.

I watch way to many "how it's made" videos on youtube and on TV. My wife caught me watching "The history of the Brick" once... she will never let me live that down.
