3D Printing an RC Car for the First Time

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I enjoyed building and driving this fully 3D-printed RC car in the last couple of months. Even the gears are fully printed in PLA, and they work smoothly (if I keep the power on a decent level). I found this fantastic project called Tarmo on Reddit. This is currently version 4 and there is also a version 5 (rear transmission only). I was immediately impressed by the community around it. They have a ton of hacks and many people who are continuously helping each other.
The car itself has crazy torque. I had to limit the power to 25% to stop breaking the gears, and it still pushes like a horse. I made a couple of jumps, only breaking a few pieces. It takes only a couple of hours to be on the streets again.

    Subbed! Am I right by saying you used prusament PLA Galaxy Black? Also, if you have parts that break easily, a good CoPA such as from the likes of Polymaker will make really durable parts. I like Polymaker's CoPAs because they are designed to be a lot more easy to print than others, although it is expensive.

    @@davper8619 that's not needed for majority of parts apart for some around the motor - and PETG might be too soft there. PLA is much easier to print with uniform strength - lthough it's more brittle overall. PETG can be also printed with good layer adhesion, but it takes more effort to nail it.

    lubricate the gears with a liquid lubricant that doesn't penetrate and that should allow for higher speeds. I tried something similar and that worked pretty well.

    9:30 A note on those bullet connectors: Without any soldering, you can place the wire in the connector and hold it in place using some helping hands. Then you can heat up the connector with your iron and feed solder into the connector using that hole in the side which is its intended use. This way the flux in the solder will clean everything and produce a nice solder joint. Cheers! Oh, and then at 9:50 with the heat shrink, you can have heat shrink cover the whole female connector so there's no exposed conductor to short with the other connectors when everything is plugged in.
