So, you're calibrating to each filament roll or does each PTEG manufacturer provide calibration recommendations for their brand of PTEG? Sorry for the dumb questions; this is all new to me. I was only aware of the need to "calibrate" for dimensional accuracy. Maybe there's an instructiona...

After the chassis, it is time to work out the bodyshell accessories...


And there is a lot of screws...


(and that is just the first one, I have other bodyshell to accessorize...)

And I just published the accessories set for the bodyshell (BL2909 Turismo WSC par Sabula tech).

My pancar RC 1/12 chassis was designed with this event in mind, and the files are now available on MakerWorld (free files) https://i.imgur.com/amvHIvy.jpg https://makerworld.com/en/models/1086493 How about a small one-design formula race ?

Very cool! First post seems like it's wide open.....Can I come up from Cotignac/FR and play!?

Well... People dream about scanner being efficient for parts... But it's not that practical : for used parts, it also includes the part deformations due to usage. The scanner would provide a quick copy of a part with a bent, for example. Your eye, knowledge and brain are fantastic and bent are taken...

Perfect!!!! I'll keep my eyes open for when registration starts! Although, was planning to get my ffvrc license anyway....hopefully I can get a few warm up runs done at Marseille Mini Models in advance. Thanks for this post! Looking forward to meet you and others at the event. There is two nice tra...

We made together some variations of the original stickers in order to hint about the true nature of the car... https://i.imgur.com/vZUm6eE.jpeg https://i.imgur....

We all love details when we finish a car, and even if they are not really visible when the car is running, they are so important when it means finishing a car... I shared an idea with Johann few weeks ago, and he was not really sure it would work as probab...

If you need measurements from a fresh unused chassis show me where to measure and I'm happy to pop open my kit. It might be warped just from sitting so long though :lol: I had a brand new chassis halves in hand. They were not deformation free while they were just out of the bag... Another one would...
