3D-Printed 1/12th Scale Pan Car

The Mission

I accidently bought a 1/12th scale RC body: http://www.killerbodyrc.com/page/products.aspx?cid=12&sid=28 I really dig the Martini Racing design. Did I mention I also own two Lancia Delta HF Integrale in Martini Racing trim (sadly, only in 1/10th scale :) )? They are so gorgeous (don't let my girlfriend know...). Anyhow. I have various 1/10th scale chassis, but the really cool LC2 body won't fit 'em. I thought about converting a Tamiya F-10x, but then I decided to go for a newly built (printed) chassis - I always wanted to make my own RC car.

The Idea

• Luckily Daniel Norée did some awesome work on designing a 1/10th scale F1 car. I decided to use it as a starting point for my project.
• I needed to adapt it to the body size (170mm width, 235mm wheelbase)
• I wanted to use standard 1/12th scale wheels, since I didn't want to print them for various reasons

The KEYWORD

TBD

The Result

TBD

The Building Instructions

• First, print all the parts
  • Media:PanCarSCADs.zip - The source code in OpenSCAD-format, if you want to modify the design
  • Media:PanCarSTLs.zip - The STL-files for printing
• Get all the screws and nuts needed:
  • TBD
  • TBD
• Get all the ball bearings needed:
  • 4 * 3x8x4 (front wheel hubs)
  • 2 * 12x18x4 (rear axle)
• Build
  • TBD…

The Learnings

• Use a smaller motor - 380 type would suffice
