It's something I have been meaning to learn to do in Fusion for a long time. But I don't think the way I did it is the correct way. I need the tread pattern to wrap over the edge, but it stops before it gets there.
I don't plan on printing them actually. I am just learning more advanced modeling in Fusion. I can do this in other software. But getting Fusion to do this kind of stuff is a bit different it seems.
Gotcha. I still need to spend some time in Fusion. We've just been busy as crap around here, and haven't really had the time.I don't plan on printing them actually. I am just learning more advanced modeling in Fusion. I can do this in other software. But getting Fusion to do this kind of stuff is a bit different it seems.
But when I get done, if someone wants to try printing them I can send the file. Maybe I will print it as like a desk ornament or something
These guys have some decent totorials.
You make some tires, I will buy them, just so I have some made tires from the wicked one
maybe even put a certain signature to them, like a wicked frog, this is wild and I never even thought of this. I would rock them on a rig.
Another member here may try to print them once I get the design squared away. I'm currently locked into another big project, so I'll get back to these in a week or so.You make some tires, I will buy them, just so I have some made tires from the wicked one
Iirc fusion has a cast/mold setting that might make urethane tires easier to makeI don't plan on printing them actually. I am just learning more advanced modeling in Fusion. I can do this in other software. But getting Fusion to do this kind of stuff is a bit different it seems.

Show that jumpHypno Wheel - for 1:10 scale radio controlled trucks.
I was watching racing and some teams paint patterns on the wheels that animate when the car is rolling. I made an animated wheel design.
One thing led to another and I designed a R/C car wheel using Onshape CAD.
It fits my Team Associated Pro/4 SC10 race truck perfectly.
The Hypnotic design is directional. So there are two models - for the Left & Right.
The ‘fins’ that reinforce the spokes are also aerodynamic. The spinning wheel will force hot air from the brakes out from the wheel well. That's the theory anyways.
My only worry:
I have designed wheels before and I always over-engineer them. Too thick, too heavy, stronger than it needs to be. These wheel are designed lighter, using a 1.5mm minimum thickness. The reinforcing details made it plenty strong.
But the true test will be if my new R/C wheels survive a 6 meter jump onto concrete…

is that based on a traxxas wheel or a standard SCT wheel?Hypno Wheel - for 1:10 scale radio controlled trucks.
