Tamiya 1/14 King Hauler Semi Truck

1/19/20 The new Tamiya King Hauler V2 is now available for download. I am giving up on this model as it has spring suspension that works well if you print the frame at 100% infill, but if you are building from scratch, check out and download the new version, which is completely Tamiya built and 10,000% better. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4109447 9/8/19 Update: I have finally completed the toolbox switch box and uploaded it. Decided to run the truck in the hall and needed to switch off the sound when you hear doors slamming, which is an indicator that you need to shut the sound off before all your neighbors take your truck and throw it out the window. 8/2/19 I have uploaded a new motor mount to clear the steering linkage. The 12v motor interferes with the steering linkage. This also increases the speed and torque of the motor by putting it inline with the drive shaft, just a little bit, but it is noticeable. 8/2/19 Update: Note that I have noticed if you use a 6v motor to use a 12v battery, and if using a 12v motor, use a 24v battery. You will still be within the ratings for these motors as the 6v range is from 6-12, and the 12v motor is rated at 12 to 20v. This gives this truck the pulling power it needs to pull a trailer otherwise it runs but just not up to my specs. Most ESC are rated up to 20 volts, you might have to purchase a 24v ESC for a 24v battery but I believe that 4 volts will not overvolt a 20v ESC or damage it. If anything, it might just see the overvolt and shut down with no damage. I might be wrong, try at your own risk. Brushed ESCs are cheap to replace. 9/30/19 I have uploaded motor mount for 540 motor/motor u-joint for 540 motor and battery box for Zeee 7200mAh 80C 3S 11.1V Hard case Lipo Battery according to the specs it should fit the original holder but you will not be able to lock it down. 3/13/19 I have almost completely remixed MRcrakyface v4 truck to make this thing work, everything is printable all you need is screws and bolts and electronics. The cab and other parts on this truck are first prints and have been fixed so your truck will have the proper cab as well as hollow cab light for inserting lights. The springs require click pen springs or 5mm OD x 25mm small springs.
