How to build a metal RC Demolition derby body
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Watch a quick video showing how to build a metal RC body for demolition derby. Get your source aluminum from any print shop , they use thin aluminum photo sensitive printing plates then when their jobs are done they recycle the metal . If you ask nice they might give you a few plates for next to nothing , you'll only need to clean off any residual ink .

Thanks for this. The body of my 1/10th scale RC truggy finally broke in half yesterday and I'm thinking about replacing it with a homemade Tesla Cybertruck body. That thing has the ideal body for this type of DIY project. Knowing the correct thickness of the aluminium, that you can cut it with shears and that you can glue it with super glue helped immensely. I was already dreading having to drill hundreds of tiny holes and stitching everything together with small rivets, LOL

super glue works really well , rivets are more work but look great for demo derby cars

This was the least expensive RC chassis I could find . The Redcat drifting/touring cars . They are easy to upgrade and offer decent performance for beginners .I bought mine on E-Bay for about $150 Canadian . They are ready to run . The only things I changed were the wheels and of course the bodies .
There a place find the blue prints and measurements so I can print them out

@BillyCLeWorth

They are at the correct size as is . When you take it to your local print shop/photocopy/blueprint place just have them print it at 100% . The width will be 30 inch and they will be able to print it to the length they need as the paper is on a roll .If you try to print it on a home printer you would need to print it in sections and paste it all back together .
