Pacman - AR60 high-clearance gear cover

myminifactory

Inspired by "The Barber" from Progressive RC, to make my own version: Pacman. If you are serious about competition, go with The Barber, my version is just a side project barely tested by myself alone. This is an axle differential cover for the AR60 to get maximum clearance. By cutting the stock housing, you can then fit the Pacman cover and you will have an AR60 mostly flat, removing all the excess of the AR60 stock pumpkin. There are four versions (4 files included). You can choose which one to use depending on your gear setup in the AR60 axle. Bevel gear can be on the LEFT or RIGHT side, and you may have the standard bulky spool locker or the skinny aftermarket version (e.g. Incision Spool/Locker or Hot Racing SCP125R Diff Lock). Depending on these 2 variables, select which Pacman to use. In the STL files: Pacman Ar60 Cover Spacers to hook the back of the cover to the housing Need to complete: Stock screws from the old cover 2 x flat head M3 screws if you want to be completely flat on the bottom To install (see video here as well): Cut the pumpkin of the AR60 axle. Measure 29mm from the top of the pumpkin, and run a cross-cut all the way to the back. The cut line should be almost touching the bearing space (see pictures). Push Pacman in and you should fill a "click" once is all the way in. Be careful, make sure that the cut is matching the shape of the cover. Otherwise, keep trimming the axle housing till you have a tight fit. Add the front screws (4 on the sides, 2 in the top) Add the spacer to the rear. Drill a small hole on the axle flange in the rear, aligned with the rear holes. Screw bottom-up on the rear holes. Add a nut on the other end if you want a strong holder (not needed, but recommended). Run it!
