MN99s - custom 3D models for upgrades

[varrol]

Hey, just wanted to show some of my work regarding the MN99s model.

I've replaced the motor to 380 for which I designed and printed new middle plate - for that I've got the new MN receiver and a separate ECS. I've also designed and printed extended shock mounts that allow to put shocks in ~45' angle - this, together with basic Injora shocks gives much more suspension travel. Last - I've replaced original wheels with basic WPL ones - they just look cool and improve grip a bit Ah yes - also got stronger servo and metal shafts.

My models are available on the Onshape - I'm working on improving MN128 now, so some shock mounts are already there.

TBH I haven't see many threads regarding MN or WPL models - any fans of cheap RCs here?

Nice work, yes I am a fan of MN and WPL models. Definitely cheap but loads of fun. They get even better with just a little bit of work. You can’t beat the scale look for the price.

ive had a few of them but every time i upgrade them they break then i fix that and something else breaks
i dont have alot of faith in them but the little bit of run time ive had with them stock there were fun for what they are

I love the idea of printing custom parts like that, especially the shock mounts, that's a cool way to get better suspension. MN and WPL mods definitely don’t get enough love, but they can make a huge difference in performance. I'll check out your models on Onshape, sounds like you're putting a lot of effort into making them better.
