Axial Wraith Light Bar

thingiverse

I designed a versatile LED light bar that fits securely on top of an axial wraith truck, but its design also makes it compatible with various scale trucks. The light bar was printed in PLA plastic, while the mounts were crafted from flexible TPU material. However, using TPU for both parts would likely be even better. I employed a standard LED strip, which required some creative soldering techniques to get all the LEDs functioning properly. Since the LED strip had to be cut at an awkward angle to fit in place, I needed to carefully complete the circuit by tracing either the positive or negative wires, depending on the LED's polarity.
