Tekno EB48 2.2 8th scale buggy is nearly done. Just need to solder the motor and power wires, install the receiver, dial in the suspension geometry to a much better starting point and paint the body, oh and add the wing. Been an amazing build, really have mostly enjoyed it. Haha. It’s so big and heavy, just a monster. Hoping to take it on the big track at the edge of town next weekend. The guys out there so far have been super friendly. #rccar

Finally able to spend a little time on building this Tekno EB48 2.2 8th scale buggy. Building the front center and rear differential then those go into the front and rear bulkhead. Those then get built into the front and rear assembly.

This has been a really interesting build and thankfully the instructions are really good. Definitely the most complicated RC vehicle I've ever built.

🚗✨ Stiamo costruendo la nostra RC CAR 100% stampabile in 3D! ✨

Dalle gomme agli ingranaggi, dal telaio ai supporti interni, ogni componente sta prendendo forma layer dopo layer 🖨️

Per i test stiamo usando PLA, ABS, ASA e NYLON con la BambuLab P1S🔧

Siamo ancora in fase prototipo, ma la direzione è chiara: rendere tutto sempre più modulare, stampabile e accessibile 🚀

📍 Vi aspettiamo alla #MakerFaireTrieste per vederla dal vivo!

What’s this? A post? I’ve been so busy with moving to Colorado from California I’ve just not had much time for projects and that’s what I like to post about the most. Well today the movers arrived and oh I have so many boxes to unpack and move and man. Just too much.

But I also got an 8th scale buggy kit that I’m really excited to build. This is the kit and some of the parts needed to build it. It’s a Tekno EB48 2.2. #rccar #rccars

Building A Big RC Mini Truck

Kei trucks are some of the smallest commercial vehicles out on the roads today. You can also get lots of cute kei RC cars if you’re into the toy side of things. [Victor] wanted to split the d…

Alle Deals dazu bei mydealz sind so sauteure Sachen, wo ich dann noch alles selber schrauben muss. #rccar #rc #spielzeug

Wenn ich ein RC-Auto will, mit dem man etwas herumfahren kann, draußen, aber keine Lust auf basteln habe, gibts da was für um die 100 Euro, was kein billiger Chinamüll ist, der beim ersten Crash zerbricht oder wo die Akkus explodieren?

👀 Non siamo spariti… stavamo lavorando! 🔧🚀

Sono stati mesi intensi dietro le quinte, tra test, prototipi e nuove idee… e ora siamo pronti a tornare 😎

🎮✨ Ecco un primo assaggio della nostra nuova sorpresa TIG: una super macchinina RC! 🚗⚡️
Per ora solo qualche foto/clip… ma presto vi facciamo vedere tutto 👀

Restate connessi, perché il bello deve ancora arrivare! 🔥

Digging around came across:
https://www.stlgears.com/generators/3dprint
You give it some parameters, and it makes an STL model you can print.

Module 0.344
Pressure Angle 20°
Teeth 24
Gear Length 10mm
Hole Radius 0.75mm

It looks pretty close to the real thing. I've no experience with 3D printed gears, might be another option? A whole other language I'm not familiar with.

It's not a highly loaded gear, at least ordinarily! Massive massive speed reduction/torque increase by the time it gets to the other end.

Ok first real like “every day life post” in a long while. This last weekend I went to NorCal Hobbies in San Jose to use their indoor carpet track for the first time in YEARS. Met up with some other fur friends there and honestly I had a great time. I mostly ran my olllllld LCG RWD Traxxas Slash but I also picked up an Arrma Mini Kraton and man what a fun little truck.

Was a good and tiring day. Was nice to know I still had SOME skill on the track after being away from it so long. I also didn’t expect to like running Carpet, but it was fun. I’m moving soon so I don’t know if I’ll be able to go back again but yesterday reminded me how much I enjoy this hobby!
