1:25 RC Car chassis

thingiverse

Remixed the original 1:25 RC car, so all the parts are scaled ALMOST correctly. (close enough anyways) I also will soon add the files I used for printing the Challenger body specific to this toy. (need to add some printed tabs to properly mount it! mine's held on with foam) I used 2.5mm screws throughout the car and the rear axle is a 2.5mm threaded rod. I used bearings in the rear but can't recall the exact size currently so I'll need to look that up before i take this out of "in progress" the tires are good to get the model finished, however printed tires are terrible for driving on most surfaces! I included EDITED frame, and control arms. the EDITED control arms are for using a 2.5mm screw through the front tires (drilled out to spin freely) and tightly fit into the control arm for a cheap and easy way to let them spin free. the EDITED frame is mostly a cleanup from the original model that also removes the FORWARD servo mounting hole to clear the challenger body. The "CUSTOM STEERING ROD" is left blank so you can custom drill a hole to match your servo steering horn, or you can use the stock one as well. The original Challenger body that is listed in this remix, needs to be scaled up about 103.2~% to fit this body, I will include my personal edited version that is scaled correctly soon! MOST of the holes for this model I highly suggest you go at them with a correctly sized drill bit. they're all slightly undersized when I printed them, this was so I can guarantee a proper fit without splitting plastic when screwing things together. there should be space on this car to hold a pair of 18650 batteries as well if you don't mind the added weight! I'll add files as I finalize them, feel free to share questions or comments or corrections! SHARE YOUR MAKES! I found a Pull car at a local walmart which has really close to correctly sized tire and rims for this. for $9.00 it wasn't a bad deal!
