<h1>WELCOME TO THE M548 RC 1/10 SCALE MODEL</h1> This is the Tracks for the M548 RC 1/10 scale model. I've thoroughly tested the model and, although it's still a work in progress, it appears to be functioning properly so far. You can see it in action by checking out the following links: <ol> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXExANYlS5I/">Test 1</a>.</p></li> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsJ7jWMVhmk/">Test 2</a>.</p></li> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0PQYN6heOw/">Test 3</a>.</p></li> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4KdyEwWuVk/">Test 4</a>.</p></li> </ol> <h1>ASSEMBLY TIPS AND TRICKS</h1> <h2>TINKERING WITH THE DESIGN</h2> I'm proud to say that the entire design was created using FreeCAD open-source software. I'd like to extend a huge thank you to all the developers who made this project possible. For this particular build, I highly recommend downloading FreeCAD to see how to assemble everything. The pieces are quite complex, and the assembly files will greatly help you understand how to bring all the parts together. If you want to download this software for free and visualize the assembly process, you can do so by visiting the following link: <p>FreeCAD official page <a href="https://www.freecadweb.org/">FreeCAD</a>.</p> <h2>ASSEMBLY TOOLS AND MATERIALS</h2> In this case, you'll need to print at least 69 links for each side, which totals 138 links. The links are connected using metal nails (44 mm long and 2.2 mm diameter). The other part of the link (the jag that fits the guide wheels gap) can be assembled with a little bit of Cyanocrylate. The links are very tight to the sprocket tooth, so I've included the FreeCad files for you to modify the links to your needs. If you encounter any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out. <h2>PRINTING TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS</h2> I highly recommend printing a small number of links and testing them before printing all 138 links. This will ensure that they fit the sprocket properly and avoid wasting time and plastic. Make sure the movement between the sprockets and the chain is smooth enough before proceeding with the full print. <h2>HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS</h2> To assemble all the parts of the suspension and wheels, you'll need the following: <ul> <li>140 x nails (44mm x 2.2mm diameter) </li> </ul> <h1>DOWNLOAD THE PARTS NOW!</h1> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3097391/">Chassis</a>.</p></li> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3107817/">Gearbox</a>.</p></li> <li><p>M548 <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3164336/">Body 1/3 (Front)</a>.</p></li>
