Hate to be a killjoy but you need to read forum rules about buying and selling , there's been fraud in the past and the rules protect against it , basically buying and selling on the forum is not an immediate right . If you can't find genuine parts then you could look on Shapeways , there is a fair ...

The safe way is to stick it in a bucket of salt water to discharge over night , the fun way is to put a nail in a five foot piece of wood and whack it , I'll leave it to you to decide .

That's out of the park Mark :!: excellent job 8) Looks super modern with the satin finish but if you go that way I think decals would look out of place .... any idea what colour you'd go for if you paint it ? either way the dashboard needs detailing for the dials and radio . Must have been a huge si...

Just received an engineering plate and some PA6 CF from Bambu Lab yesterday , dried the filament for 20 hours and my first print has started

PA6 CF prints so well , printed some Mini Mustang arms and once I pressed in the ball studs they are free and smooth , often when you print a ball joint you have to hone them a bit , very impressed with the dimensional accuracy . 20230902_153151.jpg These arms and hubs are modified to use HotShot do...

Interesting... I have some PA12 HT CF and PETG CF at home but did not tried to print yet with them... Time will come, as I have something in mind, but right now I'm focused on something else... I also heard about PC being very interesting for RC, and I must recognize I'm tempted to try... And the P...

All my nylons and PC are in sealed dry boxes with silica packs in and with bowdan tubes to the printer , as you say you get a few months before drying again , I don't really bother with PLA other than having it in large tubs with silica packs but not that well sealed . The Mini Mustang is coming alo...

For running those little extra pimples might help grip and they can all face the inside anyway

You need a lot of plastic bags to put the grouped parts in and a box that's taped shut and your parents to hand it to you for the propper Christmas experience .

Drew up the steering components and chassis plate for the Mini Mustang , I combined the chassis plate with the under tray that's usually a lexan part, printed in PA6 CF Nylon for the steering and the plate in PETG CF. 20230905_121053.jpg 20230905_121113.jpg 20230905_121031.jpg The chassis plate once...

A job well done .

Excellent job , well done

Think I'd just buy an M4 die and cut the thread myself .

Seen another Nichimo Exceed 443WDS on sale on one of the group in Facebook with nice pictures and the seller indicating the chassis is printed... Looking attentively to the picture, it's easy to notice the bottom chassis is printed, as well as front and rear gearbox halves... I'm very happy my file...

This Mini Mustang is just about done , modified to use Hotshot diff bevel gears , dogbones and axles . Servo and motor are fitted just need to fit an RX and ESC and it's test drive time, I'm not sure if the suspension arms will hold up in home printed PA6 CF Nylon, where the inner arms meet the susp...
