If one of them has a broken servo , well it's done for really you could send it my way LOL
Pretty jealous , have fun

Really chuffed with how these came out , gears A,B and C for the Tamiya Holiday Buggy / Sand Rover , printed in PA12 CF fill Nylon . The genuine ones I have are old and a little worn so these will get an old gal rollin again .

CAD modeled and 3d printed these Holiday Buggy gears

They are printed with a 0.4 nozzle but using a little used setting in Cura , under Experimental settings you will find " slicing tolerance" , set this to "exclusive " . The nozzle itself is an E3d hardened nozzle . The slicing tolerance setting has three settings that adapt to th...

They are printed with a 0.4 nozzle but using a little used setting in Cura Which version of Cura do you use Dadio's? I have been using 4.8.0 for the past couple yrs but just downloaded the latest one onto my laptop last week... 5.2 I think it is? I haven't had a chance to mess with the new version ...

That's a very good proof of concept , considering you never intended it to be used in this way and it was early work it's far from anything to be ashamed of , next one will be spot on I'm sure :!: Most of the faults could probably be addressed by just reworking the buck , it would need sanding and f...

It's odd that Tag opted to go to die cast alloy for the latest version , an investment to make the moulds but cheaper in the long run ? I'd have thought they would stick to the steel ones as the cost of machining new moulds and redesigning the splined output shafts must have been quite high ?

Remodelled the Holiday Buggy gears to fit 8x4x3 bearings , stock they just run naked on the 4mm shaft without even bushings , both gears now need a spacer as well now , I'll get a set pro printed next month to check the model then add them to my shop .

Is that the red velvet rope I spy on the right ? Nice touch .

Another Holiday Buggy / Sand Rover part , this time the lower gearbox and suspension mount , fits perfectly .

What's weird is when i was just starting out everybody at my local club had British heatshrink-era ESC's, mainly Demon Kings and ProKings, Nosrams and the like. I hated the look of them and bought a Futaba 112B due to the neat looking placcy case. I then went through a few Novak units before settli...
