Arrma Outcast 4s body protections (roof+hood)

thingiverse

The Arrma Outcast 4s is a great car, but the body is quite expensive and can break quite easily. Here are some protections for the most exposed parts of the body, reinforcing it in case of car rollover. Mostly use M4 screws and 2 M3 screws (front hood). Use hairdryer on the hood parts on both sides to deform parts and have them nicely fit the fenders. Roof parts are easy to print. Hood parts are more difficult, I've joined a screenshot of cura's preview since they need both supports and quite large brim (7mm) to print vertically. PLA - 25% infill ================================================ 15/09/23 : Enhanced the designs: - The hood parts are thicker, more robust to strong hits on the ground. + the design does not interfere with the clips to attach body to the car hinge. - The roof parts have a bigger emboss on the top since the outcast easily flips on the roof, on concrete :-) prevents too fast delamination.
