| 1/10 conversion
I am trying to make my own body and was wondering if anyone knows the conversion to scale down to 1/10 from 1:1?

its a factor of 10. figure everything out in inches and move the decimal point. For example, something 6ft long, is 72" which is 7.2" in 1/10 scale. |

So if you want to scale down a full size vehicle: length of the 1:1, divide by 10 width of the 1:1, divide by 10 height of the 1:1, divide by 10 Do this over multiple locations on the body/chassis of the 1:1 (ie; windshield, hood, fenders,etc.)... Now you have the measurements for a 1:10 scale body Does that make sense? Or were you asking a different question? | |
