1/10 Scale Low Speed Off-Road RC Wheel & Tire
thingiverse
I turned my old 1/10th scale RC street racer electric, really wanting to run it off-road...entering the world of 3D printing. Simply print the wheel out of rigid plastic (PLA, ABS, Nylon) and the tire out of flexible material, press together, and you're ready to go! Caution: these wheels/tires aren't as strong as their commercial counterparts, use at low speed and with great care! If you like this project and want to learn more about making things with 3D printers, laser engravers, and other cool maker-tech, check out my new book "The Makerspace Workbench" from Maker Media! Don't forget to follow me on Twitter! Instructions For the wheel: Print with up to 100% infill and supports for maximum strength and consistency. For the tire: Print using flexible filament, such as MatterHackers Soft PLA. Assembly: Apply a small amount of Vasoline to the inside edge of the tire. Align the inner ridges of the tire to those on the wheel, then press together with even pressure, feeling a satisfying "pop" when fully seated.
