Axial Honcho Fuel Cell Remix

thingiverse

I've been itching to build a fuel cell for my Honcho for quite some time now, so I was thrilled when I stumbled upon HarleyDesigns' (via his budget-friendly YouTube series) design here. The project was sparked by the need to use metric hardware, which led me down a path of significant changes and modifications inspired by another fuel cell design I came across online. The body has been hollowed out, making it possible to store spares like body clips or rod ends while on the trail. You can also fit a small battery in there to power lights or other electronics. To assemble this fuel cell, you'll need 26 M2x3mm bolts, 2 M3x3mm bolts, and one M4x3mm bolt. It's worth noting that the length of the M2 bolts is crucial, but you can use longer M3 and M4 bolts if you already have them. I'm considering reworking the design to integrate the hold-down straps into the lid, as they currently just clip into the sides of the tank. I might also add a filler cap to eliminate the need for an extra bolt. To complete this project, you'll also need to print HarleyDesigns' original clip to attach it to the Honcho cage, requiring another couple of M3 bolts. I'm grateful to HarleyDesigns for his outstanding work and would like to extend my thanks to him.
