I did a CAD model of the Mugen Mercury 4Xi... The car I got has no body, but a friend of mine provided temporarily a body so I can do something...




This morning the bodyshell mold was waiting on the printer bed


It's almost perfect except an issue on the rear part which look like a layer shift but is not a layer shift as frront did not have any issue. I guess this is probably a filament issue rather than anything else (ABS, transluscent (the only one I had at home currently), print with generic profile, adaptative layer set to max quality).


The issue only affect the very rear of the body, and mostly support rather than the body itself (i'm not going to do a reprint for this). The change of tone is due to adaptative layers.


The pictures were taken this morning before taking my breakfast. I launched the wing and went to the office.

Back home, I was quite impatient to look at the result... And the bodyshell mold is quite close. I can't push the bodyshell further on the rear, because the body top parts are narrower... But the line and the dims are there...


At least it is in the original spirit...


I can't say the same for the wing... Maybe there was still some leftovers of the previous day when I started to key in the wing dimensions ... I will need to redo it...


But at least, the body is good enough :-)

One of my kids replicated an RC10B4.2 front control arm and printed it out of clear resin.



Shock cap also broke, so had to print one of these.

I'm currently working on the Marui Hunter (1984) and Galaxy (1985)... I broke the chassis and added another plate to allow to fix the parts together with few M3x12 countersunk screws and M3 Nuts...

The design is made in order to ease an optimal print at 45° angle from the bed.

And here is the results

Latest r/c to get finished.

First crack at a sunshade for my NB4 Pro, gotta make some adjustments but it came out way better than I was expecting.

Made a charger stand for my D200 neo last night.

After the chassis, I did other prints on my Hunter project for testing and demonstration purposes (as the target final prints will be relying on powder based printing processes).

Just published the first set of parts for the modular walls in case you want to build yourself a simple rc track :

Looks great, I have the RDX800 which is the same chassis more or less.

I can send you the STL if you want to print one for yourself.

Printed a Super Wheelie bodyshell and all its accessories on my X1C 3D Printer...

silvertriple

Printed few parts to validate printability of Hirobo parts with few modifications made to make them easy to print....




The result is good and parts will help to save original parts being used for a runner...

Does anyone know of a printable case for b/l motors? I thought they would be a plenty but nope.....

silvertriple

You probably have to precise the context... It depends on what you want to mount it. On my Super Wheelie, I worked out a specific motor cap to adapt it to a brushless motor, but clearly there is two elements of complexity : there is not a single generic norm that goes with brushless motor regarding wires and contact (they are not all build the same way), and the case should also fit the purpose...
