1/24-1/25 Scale Adjustable Mock-Up Chassis for RC, Model, and Slot Car Bodies

myminifactory

This is an adjustable chassis designed for mocking up 1/24-1/25 scale or similar size car bodies for RC or slot car chassis'. It's very basic, easy to print and assemble. It's very useful for figuring out the wheelbase and track width of model car bodies. You can find wheel mock-ups here.

Supports: Not necessary. Notes: These parts have been designed for easy printing. Ensuring all the parts are dimensionally accurate will make assembly easier. Five parts need to be printed, including two axle mount pieces and three center section pieces. Post-Printing: Assembling chassis To assemble the chassis, you'll need x12 M1.6x8mm machine screws, x12 M1.6 nuts, x24 M1.6 washers, and either 2mm steel rods for axles or M2 threaded rods with nuts to secure wheels. You can order a hardware set here: https://shop.makeitrc.com/products/hardware-for-make-it-rc-1-24-1-25-scale-adjustable-mock-up-chassis-v1 The M1.6 hardware holds all 5 printed pieces together as shown in the images above. The nuts can be loosened to move individual sections. Steel rods or threaded rods will be used for axles. How I Designed This: Model designed using Autodesk Fusion 360 This mock-up chassis was showcased in a video on the Make It RC YouTube channel.
