It looks amazing! I like all the details and realism. Makes me want to go back and tweak my details. Love the firewall, air intake and the jugs that look like they have liquids in them. Wow!

Did you print your motors or buy them and detail them? They are so smooth. They look injection molded or skillfully made by hand. You did a phenomenal job with the details!

I haven't printed it yet but working on mounting the 32 for hotrod to an scx10 2.

Hoping some one here would like to print it and let me know how it fits. Usually I get pretty close first try, but I have pretty limited time lately.
I hope to have the bed ready to print soon too.

Be careful doing this Dion. This forum doesnt play well with selling things and not paying their premium vendor charge.

Very pleased by this one.





I needed a spare tire for my UMG10 body and completely forgot to order one with the other tires. Came up with this design, painted it, and used Plastidip for the tire portion. Looks good enough and feels lighter than an actual spare tire.

It will do the job.

It was printed at .2 mm layer height and I think 20% infill.

Thanks.

The file hasn't been posted anywhere as of now. I'll have to see how happy I am with the fit on the UMG10 body before that happens.

Not exactly an RC part, but it's (maybe) for my new scale garage I'm building. Wanted a cinder block wall look, but didn't want to just use a printed pattern. Designed these to be modular so I can glue as many as need to the walls. Hopefully with sanding, texturing, and paint they'll look pretty realistic....

Pictured next to my TRX-4 for scale...

I just printed a Chevy C10 inspired grille for my Capra out of PETG. But it turned out kinda ugly. It's been a while since I printed anything so I'm hoping you guys can help me dial it in especially around the headlights. I believe the stringiness looking stuff is from too much heat, correct?

It's all the same grille, but I'm showing it under different lighting conditions since my iPhone isn't taking nice photos of it.

Add 0.3mm of cross hatch to the grill part. Then paint it all black and hilight the cross hatch with a dry silver. The headlights might just need to be printed slower or with more fan speed to keep it from balling up. I think that's from too much heat on fast layer times.

Alternatively you can leave the headlights cupped, paint them a light coller, and fill the cup with hot glue or some clear Resin.

Oh you did the cross hatch. Had to zoom in to see it.

Yea I would try increasing the fan speed and slowing the print head. Or add a pause between layers.

I've printed out a bunch of stuff, was the main reason (at the time) I got a 3d printer now I print all kinds of stuff also have 4 printers now
...lol. Printed out a dash and inner fenders and an interior for my SCX10 2. An exhaust and a roof rack for my jeep, also printed out door handles and a snorkel and side mirrors (in nijaflex) as well as shock towers printed alot for the jeep lol. Also printed a stand for it. Jack stands as well.
Plan to print out a 95 f150 body for my current project as soon as I can find some one to model it for me and send me the stls. Also printed out alot of scale items currently printing or trying to print some wheels as well. too.

Default What RC parts have you 3D Printed????

Recently purchased a Wraith 1.9 and couldn’t leave well enough alone so I started working on a new gearbox and transfer case. Plan to add something under the hood as well. Designed in Onshape and printed on a Wanhao i3 Plus.
