Disc brake set 2 for Traxxas will 1/16 E Revo

thingiverse

I design a new set of disc brakes for my other Traxxas 1/16 e-Revo, which I also own. This is a cosmetic upgrade as you can see from the photos. If you want to download this file, you'll need to have the RPM axle carriers already installed on your Traxxas 1/16 e-Revo like you see in the photos. The photos will give you an idea of how to prepare and install them, but I'll explain it step-by-step. To begin, depending on your 3D printer, you may need to sand down all rough edges with a Dremel or similar power tool. Next, remove the hex nut from the axle carrier and do a test fit to ensure everything fits as shown in one of the photos. Once the pieces are sanded smooth and test-fitted, assemble the pads onto the discs themselves as seen in another photo. Then, use a small amount of superglue to secure the pads and discs together as shown in yet another photo, letting the glue dry completely. After that, apply a small amount of hot glue to the discs or axle carriers using a hot glue gun, but be careful not to apply too much as you may need to remove the disc brakes for maintenance or repairs later. Quickly install the disc brakes onto the axle carrier before the glue dries. Once the glue is dry, test everything out to make sure the disc brakes are solid on the axle carrier. Finally, put the hex nuts back onto the axle carriers, reattach the wheels, and test your RC vehicle to ensure there are no issues with the disk brakes and that everything works properly.
