MyRCCar MTC Portal Axles, 1/10 RC Crawler Axles with 13mm extra clearance

myminifactory

Old Price: 10.00 I saw this kind of axles time ago, but they seemed something impossible for me then, especially when you have other parts of the transmission to improve to have a reliable build. But people asked for it, and I took my extra time these last days to bring up a working version of Portal Axles for the Rigid Axles Version of the MTC Chassis. I'm also including the main body of the axles in 3 different lengths, which should let you use 102015 or 106015 HSP CVDs, or a combination of them to achieve the desired axle length. I have tried to minimize the needed sourced parts as always, and employ the most common and sourceable possible parts. In the rear axle you can use the same CVDs than in the front one or use a 3D printable solution for what would be the Rear Dogbones. Needed Parts to build both complete axles: - 2 or 4 102015 or 106015 HSP CVDs- 2 or 4 2x9mm pins- 2 HSP 02024 Differentials- 2 HSP 02030 Diff. Pinions- 2 HSP 18027 Universal Transmission- 12 5x10x4 bearings (4 are for diff pinions)- 12 10x15x4 bearings (4 are for diffs) - 6 M5x10 Grub Screws for gears inside HubMains- 4 M4x16 Socket Head Screws for the wheels- 6 M3x30 Socket Head for links and shocks and steering- 16 M3x16 Counter-Sunk screws to close Hubs- 8 M3x12 Counter-Sunk screws to close axles- 4 M3x10 Socket Head or Button Head for C-Hubs->FrontHubMains- 8 M3x8 Socket Head or Button Head for Hubs->Axles- 1 M3x16 and another M3x20 for the steering platform->steering hubs Thanks to an included "Adaptor", you can use 102015 CVDs instead of 106015 ones in the medium and long axles, but you won't be able to use 106015 CVDs in the medium or short axles... So I would recommend you to buy 102015 for short and med, and 106015 if you know you want the long axles. Remember you can use 3D printed transmission in the rear axle if you want to go cheaper. I have also tested with Vandal CVDs, and it should be compatible with another very simple adaptor with HSP 122015 and 166015 CVDs. Inside each wheel Hub a slight 12/13 reduction will occur. To attach the 12T gear to the CVDs you will have two possibilities: - You can metal smith with a rotary tool or something similar, chamfering the 5mm section zone of the CVDs removing 0.5mm and creating a plain surface. In this case, you can use the Gear1 Standard Part.- Or you can insert a 2x9mm pin in the Gear1withHole and make it pass through the CVD hole. It should fit inside the Gear1 without reaching out. Seal it with a point of glue. I have actually tested both methods, and they are lasting at least all my first tests, which are a little aggressive :S If you already have MTC Total Combo or MTC Rigid Axles Chassis this publication is specially for you. Show your finished MTC Chassis build and ask me for a 50% discount to buy this. If you don't have MTC Chassis, maybe you can use this in your own build. With the mentioned sourced parts, the axles should be ready to be installed in other projects. The space for the "Links Heads" is 10mm. With the medium length axles and big crawler wheels, the total width is around 290mm, 280mm with 96mm wheels. You can add or remove 24mm to those numbers if using the long or short axles. IMPORTANT:This design has been only partially tested by me; anyway this is the third iteration over the idea to reach what I consider an experimental but working/usable design. If you are one of the first giving a try to this, you will for sure have all my attention to correct or improve what we consider can make this better.
