RC Bare Chassis for displaying 1/10 drift shell & wheels

thingiverse

I needed a simple bare chassis to hold and display my extra RC drift shell and wheels. The chassis is made to be adjustable, fitting full-size 1/10 scale shells as well as m-chassis shells. Round hubs allow easy removal of the wheels; enlarge the holes if they're too tight due to printer tolerance. It's designed to fit snugly, preventing wheels from coming off when removing them. The body posts are adjustable once assembled and designed for the shell to rest on their tips. I've created two sizes for the body post connector: one for m4 screws and another for 5mm body posts, depending on your build plan. There are three different styles of mid-chassis: a bare lightweight model, a light weight box storage model, and a full box storage model. The lightweight style has no storage compartment. The light weight box storage is designed to hold larger items like extra ESCs, receivers, motors, or other objects that won't fall through the gap. The full box stores smaller parts. The axle width is adjustable, with 1° (silver) and 3° (red) camber available. I use 3° printed in translucent red on the front and 1° silver on the rear, as seen in the picture with m4 main body post. To complete the build, you'll need some m4 screws of various sizes and m3 screws for the body posts. MAIN CHASSIS: - M4x10mm x 8pcs (for arms) - M4x30mm x 4pcs (for wheels; 20mm is sufficient) - M4x40mm x 4pcs (optional main body post or spare) ADJUSTABLE BODY POST: - M3x4mm x 8pcs (for clamping body posts) - M3x8mm x 4pcs (for joining two movable links) You'll need to enlarge some holes if they're too tight. It's designed for a snug fit, eliminating the need for nuts. Use a drill with a 9/64 or 3.5mm bit and a 3/32 and 2.5mm bit for enlarging holes. Avoid over-enlarging them like I did on the red arms. I'm currently modifying the hub to show wheels in turning position. If you encounter any problems during your build, please let me know. I'd love to see your finished product and appreciate suggestions for improvement – there's always room for it. Thanks!
