Tamiya Falcon Lower Bulkhead with reinforcement

thingiverse

This is the lower bulkhead part for the 1986 Tamiya RC car "The Falcon" (Part ref. D4). https://tamiyabase.com/chassis/34-falcon It was my first RC car and thanks to the covid 19 lockdown, I took it down from the attic and started my Falcon renovation project. During the bulkhead disassembly, I found the lower part broken in two parts and significantly deformed at the front end. Probably a strong frontal shock, I don't remember. At the time, I had tried to glu the pieces back together but thirty years later, it did not hold. Dimensions may not be 100% accurate as I took them from my original part but this design fits well with the upper bulkhead. I made a few modifications in the design to improve the overall rigidity. I printed in PLA as this is all I can do for now but ABS should be a better choice.
