To assemble it you need the RC4WD R2 gears:

Glad you all like it "thumbsup"

@chris.martell - the weight is at the prototype around 102g (3,59oz) within the hex mounts and the lockout nuts - the final version should be under 100g 8)

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
hi i was asking me which mod you have do on your scx10 shock and curious about your axle ????????

Gerry 12-18-2013 01:01 PM

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
Thanks all!

I have switched the SCX10 shock bodys to Egressor´s Felsenfest Body´s - they are way more smoother and are lighter then the originals.
The axles uses AX/SCX10 gears and fit the GF Spools - and i can use in these axles Wraith, XR10 or AX10 Shafts or universals - i have just to swap the axle tubes...
More info´s i´ll post up when they arrive here :-)

Rockatanski 12-18-2013 01:42 PM

Thanks guys!

Today the axle parts coming in!

http://www.rccrawler.at/board/index....chmentID=14215

Lockouts - 2 versions, the right is the normal, the left version is with 2 mounting holes for using Knuckle Weights on the rear axle:

More pics:

http://www.rccrawler.at/board/index....chmentID=14220

http://www.rccrawler.at/board/index....chmentID=14221

The "hex mounts" (they don´t need an Hex) are also really light, here is an comparison:

http://www.rccrawler.at/board/index....chmentID=14222

And the weight of the completed rear axle with original Axial shafts (i will change them and will use a CF one piece shaft):

http://www.rccrawler.at/board/index....chmentID=14224

97g are around 3.4oz "thumbsup"

Great work my friend!!!! Can't wait to see more.. Like the front axle and some testing!!!!!
Can't wait till a very special moment in the near future ;) Hint

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
Hi,

Splendid :shock:
Are a question, how manufactured these parts? Does it seem that they are moulded?

Gerry 12-30-2013 05:18 AM

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
I will assemble the front axle in a few hours Douwe "thumbsup"

The parts would be "lasersintered" - it´s similar to 3D printing, but you have a better quality and more options "thumbsup"

Tomy 12-30-2013 05:55 AM

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
Looks fantastic!

I guess we all want to know when these will be available for purchase, Gerry? :mrgreen:

And how durable is the printed material? How do the blue parts compare in strength to Axial plastic parts?

Gerry 12-30-2013 06:03 AM

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
Thank you Tomy!
We will see - first i have to do a few tests with them...

I think the material feels very strong and i´m sure it´s strong as the Axial plastic... But that´s just a feeling, have to test it even more....

Just one little more update for today - i changed the axial axle shafts to a 1-piece CF axle shaft, i had to drill out the spool tomorrow and fix the shaft with a screw:

These axles are great.

Re: Gerry´s SuDu One FL - CF Axle <3lb Shafty
 
Love this build. What program are you using to model the axle parts? You using one of those online printing places where you upload your 3D model and they build it for you or do you have a hook up? Looking great!
