Tiny Trak Volkswagen

thingiverse

The Volkswagen Bus is one of the coolest models out there in my opinion. Also check out the Wheelie bar made for this model by Flyboymac89 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3506571 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3506571 I remixed the original tiny trak wheel base (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2896083) and use the wheels from this model (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2977620). Non driven wheels are attached with M3 bolts and nuts, featuring extra spacers to align the wheels perfectly. I am still waiting for a mini FrSky receiver and a small 5v step-up converter, both of which should arrive soon and fit inside the body including a 400mAh 1s lipo battery pack. I am temporarily using a bigger DSM2 receiver and scavenged the insides of a cheap power bank as a makeshift 5v converter. The body and roof can be detached from the base easily, thanks to four 4mmx2mm round neodymium magnets used for attachment. I will also make a roof with camera holder in the near future. For the motors, I used cheap 9g servos and "modded" these into full rotation for optimal performance.
