2 days of RC in a vintage event in France : Montluçonnaise 2023 https://i.imgur.com/f7ODn3l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bN5DWwO.jpg Lot of fun, some face on some pseudo (poke @ Trass), and a lot of runs on both a nice onroad track with nice curves and a very nice offroad track in a very vintage spirit,...

Hi, Here is some work of last few week on this chassis: optimization in 3d print of the speed controler mount https://media.joomeo.com/large/6402633cbebf1.jpg https://media.joomeo.com/large/640263c0027e2.jpg Here is the result once printed and installed: https://media.joomeo.com/large/640263e322df4....

Good evening, Here is the result that suits me enough to move on. - Fixed rear apron - Rear arch at the right size - New rear mount in place - Front bumper in place Just needing the aluminium spoiler blade insert will sell in due time. I will look into the scoops behind the front wheels in the week ...

Lot of tests since 3 week. This is my last works ;) ----- 3 weeks ago: "This weekend, I looked at the wing and its supports. First job: draw a wing that looks good... phew, it fits on the printer bed in one piece. Second job: resume the design of the wing supports which I don't like ... I will ...

Lot of tests on the body / 3D print

Problems with the printer last week-end, PTFE tube that wanted to be extruded... and breakage when dismantling the nozzle... cuttin of one of the two wires of the thermistor... so ordering new parts, it will have to wait for the sequel. I had done a lot of stuff before trouble started. Still haven't...

Jérôme, I already given my opinion on Tinkercad... This is already complex parts your are doing here. I believe you would have interest to quickly move into Fusion360... Nice work, that being said... Thank you! I know, i will go on fusion360 or SW when i will have a new computer ;) ----------------...

Work on this marvellous body! I'm going to try to make the rear wing stay to match the original as well as possible, as well as a test for the rollbar, so here's the first draft (this evening I'm working on the V2). Here is the original: https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/images/car/465/Shadow-DN4-Chev...

Here are some advances in the bodywork thanks to 3D printing I made the intake cones on Tinkercad https://media.joomeo.com/large/63bb21640d219.jpg https://media.joomeo.com/large/63bb2177b6e26.jpg https://media.joomeo.com/large/63bb21889b27c.jpg https://media.joomeo.com/large/63bb2196521ef.jpg I also...

Whoa! That is a serious rubber band shooter! :shock: When I was a kid, we used our fingers. Actually hitting something was a special event to be celebrated. :lol: Your boy will be picking off flies at 50 paces with that beauty. LOL, that is the low cost one, the alloy ones are marvellous and beauti...
