RC Car 1/10 Body Support Magnet Holder

thingiverse

This is my version for the TT02 For a (WRX STI Body) or any other similar RC car. Use 3/4" Round Magnets, from Walmart, Michael's etc. They are Dirt Cheap and work great. These are from Michael's: ProMAG® Round Ceramic Magnets Item # 10307910 Cut your Tamiya Posts to height, use two magnets on each end of the car and just insert these supports and use same body clips to hold them in place, add glue to the upper magnet that will be touching the body and locate the body on top, let dry completely before you attempt to remove the body, two days or something to be sure, you can glue the magnet if you want to the chassis printed supports, is a tight fit anyway. I found that I needed angled supports for the rear of the car, the angle on a WRX STI body is 18 degrees, I I have included those as well. For the front, I just made new from scratch supports and with separate magnet holders, all with for 3mm screw holes. The glue that I found works wonders for attaching the magnets to the body and so far has not damaged my paint is drum roll..... believe it or not.... the Super Glue Fix-All Adhesive. I cannot use anything else now after I tried this glue, Shoe Goo is still aggressive on the paint after a while. I am pretty sure there are others that work just as well....Just try it before you use it on your painted car body. I printed the support Upside Down as shown on the STL file with supports for the magnet cavity. I also have the ones for the TT01E Chassis here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4941675
