Frequently Asked Questions
Our designs for now are primarily for 1/10 scale RC cars, trucks ensuring compatibility with standard RC car components. Check the dimensions & features of the Chassis and you might be able to use it for different scales, thanks to their unique customization settings!
Our designs are optimized for durability, but like any 3D printed item, they may require occasional maintenance or reinforcement, specifically after intense use. The Chassis is much less likely to brake or fall apart from a powerful crash, especially when our front bumper is applied. Bodies are unfortunatelly sensitive compared to widely used vinyl designs. The good thing is that when they suffer a crash they mostly hold together. In most severe cases there will only be one crack along two printing layers which you can easily glue back.
Our STL files are designed to be compatible with most standard 3D printers, therefore we create the file sizes to fit even small print beds etc.. We recommend checking the specifications of your printer for compatibility.
We primarily use PLA (Polylactic Acid) filament, known for its strength and ease of printing. It’s great for both functional and aesthetic parts. Although, ABS is a bit more rigid, therefore it comes more useful when we talk about prone to brake chassis parts like turn buckles or dogbones…
Also FAQ regarding 3D printed RC cars
Yes! You are free to make up any design you want! Even with the simplest 3D builder programs, like MeshMixer or 3D builder etc… You can easily modify the STL file! Cut out, replace something or resize the model for your needs.
Set a colored filament before printing if you don’t want to hassle with painting. Give a good sanding to the parts from starting harsh and finish it up with a smooth paper. In case of going full pro and painting it with acrylic spray or using model spray, you might want to match the color of the filament with the color of the paint. This way you save many layers of paint. To models we did not do LED light systems we give you vinyl templates with which you can easily create stickers for tail and front lights!
Yes, assembly instructions, Bill of Materials are available with each chassis on our website! They are designed to be straightforward, even for beginners. On the Chassis product pages there are even links to our Assembly Videos on YouTube!
Yes, we welcome modification requests. Especially if they are for the bettering of the design. Moreover if your request reflects a flaw which is aching, please run to our FORUM! Let us know, and we’ll discuss the possibilities.
Absolutely! We provide support via our community forum! Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need assistance. We are here for You!
Our 3D printed RC car builds…
We have been making / building / creating / crafting 3D printed RC cars since summer of 2020. We started out fabricating Aluminium U profile based massive chassis. My brother designed all models to fit under our Bodyworks. We left this kind of developing and moved to the idea of Fully Customizable / Adjustable RC car Chassis model designs. One Chassis for one Body is good, but one chassis for all bodies is much better!
We have two flagships as of present day! After so many years of perfecting DESTINY (the on-road one), we can whisper that it might be one of the best 3D printable on-road designs ever facing our planet (the EARTH). Check out its versatility through out our website… INFINITY the other gem, for off-road adventures is still under development. My brother and I aim for perfecting INFINITY’s STL files as well so you guys can enjoy more rough terrains too!
Our RC Designs are fully adaptable
This means that there is the option to build your own factory pieces into our Chassis. Whenever we build a new model, we get the 1/10 scale standard Tamiya RC car wheel as a front tire. We adjust the size of the chassis and the body kit to the front wheel’s dimension. All that means the finished cars (their 3D prints: chassis and bodyworks) will always be proportional in size in reference to themselves in reality. (to the real car’s dimensions). Unique car authenticity is what we aim for in the fields of Radio Controlled Cars! Even though fully embracing this choice entirely, implies our cars are not proportional to each other. (Regrettably, in real life not all cars have same sized front tires.)
We choose this option for your RC convenience!
- For example, if you want to use a RIM of your previous (1/10 size) purchase from a factory piece (from ebay or from your local shop), you can apply it on our designs without any issues!
- The other reason was the incompetence of building a lasting 3D printed tire. So far there isn’t, or at least we do not know any material/variation of a 3D print, that could serve as durable as an injection molded original RC car tire. Thinking here on a Tamiya tire straight out from a factory mold.
Hopefully, this will change in the near future! So we would not must go shopping into dedicated RC stores to get new pairs of RUBBER to burn. You know, instead at home print’em easily. Certainly watching it take shape from our lazy couch.
We will definitely try and create an everlasting 3D printed RC car tire so highly recommended to follow us on YouTube!
