Completing and Test Driving 1/24 3D Printed Chassis for Skyline Project (E18)

[@bakko9302]

Love what you are doing! Keep it up :) So much potential for that design. A way to shorten or lengthen the chassi to make it work with different types of bodys and a way to change parts so that it could be either AWD, RWD of FWD but all with the same platform would be killer.

[@ripmax333]

Looking forward to this!

[@ripriotrc4561]

Great build

[@mK-lw4pi]

Always ready for some more prerunner updates

[@pierce324]

I always look forward to your projects!

[@herevalkry3884]

thank you so much for your upload video!

[@mircoheitmann]

recently i watched a video from greatscott on ESCs. having a relatively bad low end is pretty normal with most ESCs, he "fixed" it by using an open source ESC, but that would be waaay too huge for this build and also too expensive. anyway, i really enjoyed this video!

[@modelnutty6503]

definitely, and so much simpler to pop in an FK-130 or FK-180 brushed instead.

[@fabriceseverin8030]

It's very very cool project , great mini rc !

[@rmboffroading9104]

Justin kovach, nice work very realistic!

[@STEVOD313]

Awesome lil drifter! Looks good

[@basher_5007]

Great progress ckeap it up

[@stsbrothers2905]

Wow, how these rims look so clean without any 3d print stairs

[@cheddarcheese8945]

Awesome. Great job have been hanging out to watch this video. Very satisfied like your video they are very well done 👍🏻

[@teotal_art]

excelent work verycarefully designed all and awesome music

[@johnieleltitandelais]

Grate job friend

[@DimaLegoFUN]

Sometimes i'm falling asleep because of the music you are using... (but i like it).

[@jimhinkle7245]

Well done!!!!

[@SianaGearz]

This is madness! (the good kind)

[@dodgeman010101]

I really enjoy the work you're doing it's all based off of RC stuff that I used to be in just a little tip for you as far as the motor and speed controller go. i suggest look into a sensored system. That will truly smooth out your performance issues with your breast the system. When I used to race that's all I used to race with was a sensored system

[@MakeItRC]

I'm glad your enjoying the videos. A sensored brushless motor would be great, though I'm not sure if they are available in this size. I'll have to do a bit of searching, otherwise I might try out some brushed motors.

[@dodgeman010101]

Make It RC i was thinking that as well. brushed motor work like in all your other vid. lets face it the brushless would be fun on a big area like a gym. ha ha

[@modelnutty6503]

agree FK-130 FK-180 size about right. you might want to pick up a 1/24 scale Subotech/GPtoys car/chassis because of drive train configuration and placement of a pair of 14500 lithium ion cells snapping into the sides for a 2S configuration, they're very tidy. the other config I'd like to see is something motor+pinion>counter gear into counter gear... then small tooth belt driven front+rear diffs to toss away the center shaft bevel gear issues. once set up it'd sure run fast and smooth! it could be possible to integrate the reduction into the front or rear diff casing (in front ahead of the axle, so nothing is in the way of the belt). one of the fastest oval or dirt oval cars back when was the "Dominator", motor+reduction into direct belt drive and no diffs at all, it just did it's thing with weight transfer, battery mounted to the "wrong" (right) side of the chassis for traction to outside wheels (turning left) as the insides went light... a lot like a live axle go cart doesn't need a diff when the front caster is doing the same type action (inner tire lifting). a very simple live axle pan car could be set up to do like a go cart does too by modifying a 1/24 (4") slot car chassis front end/beam for steering. not scale but it'd perform, let that inside rear tire lift 1-2 mm when its cornering.

[@davidturner2365]

Awsome !

[@titanstudioproductions335]

Another great video, keep it up 👍🏻!!

[@deft_illust3019]

Awesome!

[@makewithmegma]

Amazing👍

[@soldieroffortune6787]

More skyline please

[@nikolasmek1918]

Congratulations!!! Very nice project! Where can I download the STL files? Didn't find even on Patreon...

[@rcpatapouf]

Awesome

[@itspique]

8th *me working on my car* *vid pops up* Me: okay I’ll work on you later Nick I gotta go see this 😁😁😁

[@DoRC]

Looks good. One thing, shortening a spring will actually make it firmer not softer.

[@C2H5OHist]

Unless there was preload.

[@DoRC]

AlfonsoB preload does not increase spring rate. A normal coil springs rate is essentially linear throughout it's compression range.

[@C2H5OHist]

True, it does not increase spring rate but the force of the car must overcome the force of the preload before any compression of the spring happens.

[@DoRC]

AlfonsoB Yes but only to it's resting position or initial sag. Once it's at that point there's no difference.

[@C2H5OHist]

I already acnowledged it makes no difference from that point onwards. If he really succeeded in softening the suspension by shortening the springs then the only logical reason for it was lessening the preload.

[@neildejesus9948]

nice!

[@aguiloco23]

During my experiment with a custom 1/24 rc car I found that micro brushless motors vibrate a lot. I tried 3 different ones and had the same poor results. I switched to a simpler and inexpensive brushed motor and all drivetrain problems disappeared.

[@lukeruska1303]

Should make rwd 1 24 drift car

[@nameless2346]

Isn’t that what his Pontiac firebird rc is?

[@chrismooneyham5279]

I have a 1/24th Lambo Urus this would be awesome for. What would you charge me for a rolling chassis kit? With wheels and tires. Pweeeeaaasssseeee!!!!

[@atiprocharger]

Add negative expo to your throttle curve.. Start at -20 and go from there.

[@Wernerrrrr]

Can I get the STL files somewhere?

[@calebsherman886]

I make tanks but this makes me want to make a lil mini tank.

[@thomascriviera5779]

5th watcher 1rst notafication!!

[@laytonpratt]

Subbed

[@Phin_Again]

Love your vids. Btw, i was reading the desc and saw you misspelled "trial" just to let you know

[@MakeItRC]

Thank you, I'm glad your enjoying the video. Good catch on the description, It's been corrected. 👍

[@megadeth1952]

That piece of wood looks like it pitched the gearing. Probably wont last long

[@MakeItRC]

Good catch, I noticed that later on. I'll want to mess with that at some point to get the angle correct.

[@whipflash191]

Any chance you're going to release the STLs and a build guide where your happy with it? id love to give it a shot myself

[@MakeItRC]

I will probable end up doing so, though there are some little things I'd like to improve before releasing. Also my main focus at the moment is getting the FFR SC1 released, but probable sometime after that I can upload these files as well.

[@whipflash191]

Take all the time you need fam im just happy ill get to put my grubby hands on those files at some point XD

[@dumpsterstu4474]

Do a FRS or BRZ please!

[@arturbibik]

I’m developing my ow 3d printed rc car . Length will be about 50cm

[@fishingroundoz]

what type of 3D printer

[@nahrafe]

Why you not use F4 layout to match original Skyline GT-R?(bad english, sorry)

[@mysocialmediaslave2301]

Where's Justin Y ?

[@dillanpoling4497]

Is this chassis kit available? Not seeing it on the website. Would love one for a bud I'm doing

[@MakeItRC]

Not at this time, but I do plan to release it some point. This design needs some improvements made before doing so.

[@rexleehe7633]

Where does he get the motor, esc, and battery.

[@heavyd8269]

Rex you can get the motors at a Hobbytown USA and the batteries of amazon

[@rexleehe7633]

The Dark night thanks

[@MakeItRC]

I got mine from Ebay except the motor which is from Hobby King. They are pretty generic, easy to find components.

[@traduckhai0312]

Can i get this file?

[@CarsnStuff]

gahh i can't help but want to have something like this for my x mods rc bodies.

[@tyleranthonthy8427]

Where do u get the axle

[@Otto-ct6jw]

Fuck I got whiplash

[@Rihards_Gold]

You deserver more subs than you have right now! Pin this

[@user-nv8ht7vk5c]

How do I get this frame?

[@CRP725]

How do you charge them

[@MakeItRC]

The battery? I use a Hi-Tec X1 charger.

[@angryakita3870]

U gunna release the chassis files?

[@MakeItRC]

Probable at some point. Right now the focus is on getting the FFR SC1 released, but at some point I'd like to work out the bugs and get this chassis posted as well.

[@nameless2346]

Put a 550 traxxas motor in there plz

[@harryfp1494]

Did not see this video in my last video comment

[@amused_poison_1939]

Do a 3d printed racecar 1/20 scale

[@Annathedouble00magna]

For the last time can you please do instagram pictures as well PLEASE

[@southburytractorpullers8662]

[@willr7657]

100th comment!

[@arturogarcia2586]

Can you make a rat truck RC please

[@micardo9491]

At first i would say that the video is very nice. But i think for car its important to take rubber tyres for more grip because its the only conncetion from the car to the ground.

[@Jesse__H]

Yeah, it's a drift car, though. Slippery by design.

[@cheddarcheese8945]

Its a drift car mate and looks to be near perfect

[@mathewthompson8022]

drift cars are supposed to slip mate...

[@bluedeath996]

Printing in Ninjaflex would be a good option.

[@leemilica]

485th viewer!

[@Bored00m]

sat through all that and no video with the body on and driving.. zzz

[@urdonercjeremyburris7541]

Why not shorten your wires. It's just lazy and not clean to do so

[@saberpeep]

you gotta stop spoiling your own videos in the first 10 seconds. fine if you tell us what youll be doing but dont show it, you spoil the reveal!

[@mathieurehala]

Oh no please don't buy this ESC it's so crap, i got one in my mini-Z prototype and it's the worst ESC i ever tested, bad response and no torque
