Improvements, ideas, new developments DESTINY
I’m still building my Destiny ;-), and I’ve created/modified some parts to make things work for me.
- Radiolink R6FG receiver top mount – it has a gyro, so it has to be mounted horizontally (I think) so I create this little top mount. It can be screwed on a modified version of “03_Front_tower_left” in which I added 2 screw holes.
- Bumper – I don’t have a body yet and to protect my Destiny from my bad driving skills I created this minimalist bumper. It’s attached to a modified version of “02_Front_tower_lower”. I made this last part a bit longer and I added some mounting options for future stuff (a front spoiler? a bigger/better bumper? a splitter?)
- 6 cell Nimh battery brackets – the front bracket has a little extension to avoid the battery slamming into the front in case of a crash. No changes to the original parts were needed, it can be mounted on any existing Destiny.
I’m happy to share the models/STLs with anybody, or to donate them to the awesome MFactory33 team so they can maintain “community parts” somewhere central?

Sziasztok!
I have a tiny little suggestion: is it possible to extend the steering angle just a “little” ? I am looking for a 3D printable 1/10 scale ,drift chassis, and DESTINY is the best yet, except the steering angle 🙁
More or less like the pic below:
Looking forward for a solution, thanks in advance!

Im attempting to make a differential for 3D printing. I’m modifying this differential model to be compatible with the chassis and the current gearbox housing dimensions.
I might just end up modifying the gearbox housing and some other parts to make it fit but it would be nice if i managed to somehow make it work.
On the last image you can see that its wide to the right, about 4mm. I will have to extend the gearbox in both ways symmetrically for it to be able to fit a bearing. And modify some of the chassis somehow.

It’s done. Time to print and test.

Time to to print it again… Had to remake the whole thing because i found too many problems with the fitment. And Fusion just wasn’t cooperating, there were just too many triangles and everything had weird dimensions. I remade the gearbox housing from scratch. In the file there is a set of gears below the gearbox which i will test to see if they work better in this gearbox.
Here is the file with the gearbox in the 3mf format:

Here is a bracket for the FlySky RP7 reciever for mount on DESTINY chassis

It works. Haven’t tested it in action yet bc my destiny is still in pieces.

Hi
Here is a download for a320 rc motor bracket.
STL file a320 bracket
I have glued the on/off switch can’t get lose from controller.
The car was constantly doing barrel rolls because its center of mas way too high. So i made a side mount for the battery. The other side is the same weight as the battery just so the center of mass is still in the middle. I will print the other side but for now its held with hopes & dreams and a lot of tape.

Hello new improvement are here.
We’ll be adding these updates to the download folder soon.
First up is a fully 3D-printed shock absorber designed to be assembled with a purchased spring.
The inner diameter of the spring is 12-14 mm
A little nut need to be glued to the base part after it was snapped to the shaft.

Adjustable connecting part linking the front and rear of the chassis,
with a wheelbase range of 261-273 mm, and a larger option of 273-285 mm.
I believe this enhances the chassis’s versatility and allows the connecting element to be used with other cars.

Adjustable steering joint for setting the wheels to either toe-in or toe-out alignment.
The two parts are connected using a DIN913 hex socket set screw with a flat point, size M3x8-16 mm

You also made some improvements to the bumper! 🙂
I designed mine a bit differently
Uploaded files:
I’ve already designed many versions of this bracket.
This one will require a bit more assembly but will be stronger.
Uploaded files:
With this modification, the upper arm will be much easier to produce—no more cutting of threaded rods!
It was a mistake not to use this from the beginning.
Only a DIN912 M3 bolt is needed to connect the two parts.

Hello Kevman,
Very interesting what you do 🙂
I have some ideas for the front mounting of the body:
1.) You could design the same clamp as ours, ,if it fits in height
2.) You can try to mount our bracket to yours. Need to align the holes on your bracket.
3.) If the height not enough, you could try to design something like this.
4.) If our companion piece bracket (which goes to the body) fits into the two cone, you can use our system.
Our rear mounting is at the roof of the car. I think it can be applied without any difficulty. As far as I know, he’s not fixing the body at the roof.
In this video you can learn our fixing method (with 2-2 brackets and magnets):
at 35:34 the front brackets
at 38:11 the rear brackets
If you find a solution please share with us 🙂
Best regards,
Balázs

Thank you for the ideas and response. I spoke to the designer on Cults and he mentioned that he tried to get your permission to use your chassis’s to design his bodies, but he was not able to , would you consider it ? It would be amazing, he is CarPrint on Cults. here are some of his amazing bodies that I have printed.

my frankenstein, I have adapted your drive unit and rear to the dukedok’s chassis! Still need the turnbuckles and dogbones but this is looking great.
