How I Designed and 3D Printed Custom Wheels for My 1/25 Scale RC Shelby GT500

[@MakeItRC]

Finally was able to finish this video after days of sinus congestion not letting me record a decent sounding voice over. Hope you all enjoyed this video and are having a great weekend. 👍

Prefer the brass wheels, sexxy!!! Btw, black is actually a perfect base for metallics but I would suggest spray cans (or an airbrush 👍) for the silver and brass. For the brass, spray a silver on the whole wheel, mask it, then finish with a brass color - will make it pop! Much nicer (smoother) results!

Quick correction. Those 200$ printer are not SLA. They are LCD. My Mars 2 Pro has superb quality and is way faster then your SLA because it's curing whole layer at once and not running the laser to every pixel. Not criticizing just making sure people know they can do this for cheaper than 3.5k :) Anyway, nice work :)

[@keithsmodelsandrcs6593]

[@scaleaddiction]

Wheels came out awesome, very detailed, and thanks for posting my Corvette and the post lifts ✌🙏🙏

[@MakeItRC]

Thank you for sharing, keep up the great work. 👍

[@chriszen6296]

Professional quality with interjections of humor. Informative and entertaining. Very much appreciate your dedication to the craft!

[@callsigncustard6419]

I love your channel. I got a Revell Firebird today.. gonna make it RC!

[@jerryvolpini7987]

I always knew 3d printing would have a big impact on this hobby (on most hobbies, really) but it has amazed me at how quickly this technology has advanced and the prices have come down! Great work on the wheels!

[@MakeItRC]

Thank you! Yes it's amazing how far 3D printing has come in the last ten years. Also great to see so many RC enthusiasts doing amazing things with the tech.

[@Assasin_Ace_713]

I like the 5 spoke wheels. Nice job

[@stephenmills5133]

The halot one is a decent resin printer and produces prints just ad good as the ones you printed

[@aaronmcdonald1370]

This video was very underrated, amazing content

[@MakeItRC]

Glad you enjoyed it. 👍

[@rockyice8301]

Both the 5 spoke and... The more than 5 spoke. 😂 To be real though, production levels are off the charts. There's so many good rc car channels out there but imho, Make It RC and KpopRC are in a league all their own. Great work.

[@vampcaff]

$99 for an anycubic photon zero. Worth it. The only problem is there aren't really replacement parts available. But for $99 for a working machine that has great results there's no excuse anymore. I've been using dyes for clear resin which has saved me even more money. There's never been a better time to get into sla printing.

[@inventiveowl395]

I would go with the silver "morethan5spoke" wheels :D

[@camaroboy383]

Very nice!... always love to see fellow hobbyists running cad and printing thier own parts..👍.. its alot of fun, I enjoy the cad part of it as well.. As a side not, the anycubic mono x 4k looks dang good for the price..😎..

[@jumpstartrc1571]

I'd say for something that small I wouldn't expect the detail to be any better they look awesome, I'd love to see you resin print some bbs wheels for a drift car

[@dreamsonlyownsmakers9376]

I go for the 5 spokes. Modern design match better, but, the color match in a stunning way!

[@sinformant]

I have an elegoo mars and it does amazing detail. It is all about dialing it in and figuring out proper slicer settings. It can be finicky sometimes but it is also costs 10x less.

[@kruger12311]

I have mars 2 pro and quality is superb. And it's way faster than SLA printer :)

[@MakeItRC]

Good to hear. I know a number of our Patrons and customers use those printers. Opions seem a little mixed but I've been interested in getting some lower cost SLA/LCD/DLP printers so we'd have the same equipment as many of our customers/Patrons. I've been currently doing this by acquiring some lower cost FDM printers.

[@vVachtern]

@@kruger12311 Nice to hear. Which resin did you use? Im looking for new 5 spoke rims for my mini-z and i dont know which resin is strong enough...

[@frstwhsprs]

RC cars, regular cars, guitars, looking at stars, eating chocolate bars, going to Mars, collecting Mason jars, extracting RARs...

[@skinife]

I have seen some great videos in this channel, but this one... oh boy! Nice use of 14 minutes

[@jmowens69]

Both really nice sets!

[@Modifier-RCs]

I'd go with the silver wheels, imo 👍

[@SpeedHero]

the track footage in the background @2:18 is Vancouver Island Motorsport circuit.

[@MakeItRC]

Good eye. 👍

[@kittiesnmore]

great video

[@MrRataj04]

I would like to print tires for the RC model at home, but I have not done it yet and with tpu filament and I also cannot design well, congratulations

[@hyster16t]

5 spoke for me but they both look great👌

[@VLena_art]

I always loveee your music!!!!

[@travebarker5904]

I would love to build one of this but I can’t do the stuff u so love your Chanel man

[@MuddysGarage]

I couldnt help but notice, you made the 5 spoke wheels directional, but then installed them incorreclty on the car. NOT trying to be that guy, LOL. I vote forgestars.

[@MuddysGarage]

Nevermind, hit play and started watching again, you fixed them.....

[@MakeItRC]

Lol good eye. I noticed it and fixed them. I like directional wheels and rotors, but I always forget to put them on correctly. :P

[@Silentbob6.9]

Do you have a video of what kind of electronic s you use and where to get them.

[@keithsmodelsandrcs6593]

The pedal box and wheels are amazing great looking work they look perfect i just got elegoo mars pro couole months ago but ive yet to print with it to be honest very ittimidating not been very good at tec or scaling iv everything i just need to know for my 124TH scale model cars i buikd i need to get the scale sizes to print wheels in 17" 18" 19" if any body can help me with the scale sizes i should save to get my desired sizes from 17 to 19" id appreciate anyones help if anyone could reply to measurements for each wheel id very much appreciate your help these wheels and other items are amazing you have done here awsome work 👍.. Keith

[@andres1052]

Hello..I have a arrma felony,and I want to swap out my wheels and tires. How much would u charge for a set.

[@sergiolara2190]

you should try making some wire wheels and printing them too i say that it could be fun and i like the all gray ines it suits my taste better than the other ones

[@MakeItRC]

I've done some wire wheels in the past but they weren't true wire wheels. At this small scale, I'm not sure how well they could be printed unless the wires where thick.

[@JayO1963]

How do you know the correct scale is printed? I'm new to this.

[@nosc0pe]

Looks good

[@lillianapacheco9155]

Alright i am please make it rc with the new wheels on gt500 if i had to pick one five spoke are my choice hands down anyway great job that all have to say for now so see you later bye now. P.S. Oh Make It RC are you going to do a 65 pontiac gto rc build in the future if not then maybe mazda RX-8 could be nice choice too so that it for now see you next time bye now.

[@derekmills9501]

Nice work. But you will have a much better results with very very light coats of paint. 3 coats of just barely misted coats will look perfect and not have that a puddled look.

[@joshclark4578]

I would have to go with the 5 spoke wheels

[@SwagKats]

Where do you get the tires for the wheels?

[@angelo_r3990]

Dude can you make a wide body Ford Mustang please I would appreciate it and would also buy it thanks

[@JeffJackson86]

I've been 3D printing for 6 months, learned so much, so much to learn.... Curious why you printed the wheels elevated on supports VS laying flat/on a raft?

[@MakeItRC]

Nice! The wheels were printed on a SLA printer which prints the objects upside down. Here's a link with much more info than I can reasonably put in a comment if you're interested in learning more about supports in SLA printing: makezine.com/projects/fine-tune-your-resin-3d-print-supports/

[@mikeruscher8359]

the 5 spoke

[@fuckngreat8955]

I would choose the more than 5 spoke wheels if i made a 1 24th scale rc

[@theStirp]

Can you make 1:10 scale rc wheels?

[@sirar0123]

I've looked at maybe 5 videos so far and still have no idea how to make wheels

[@rubbertoe.]

I would love to have some wheels for my 1/24 scale model

[@Cosmintube]

get Aoshima, they make way better wheels than these, for like 10 bucks. Better quality, painted, tires included

[@rubbertoe.]

@@Cosmintube yeah it's been a while since I commented that, I have like a million aoshima wheels now lol

[@oh8044]

Lights please

[@nbschriz8509]

You know how you can scan with a iPhone 13? Is there like anyway I could scan my truck and 3d print it? Lol😅

[@pmygoddamn]

I just wanna talk to that 1 person that disliked 😂

[@aydinsamp1709]

I have a 1967 gt 350 shelby I won't to turn into a rc car

[@brucebruce4098]

Can you say CALIPERS ???

[@crimsonhitman1719]

if you ever need anything printed that's costumed would love to help check us out RoadRunner3D

[@mister_5306]

Well for one you need to increase your painting skills like tremendously. Secondly your rattle can choice is like, bummy and broke considering “I HaVe A 3d PrInTeR tHaT cOsT oVeR 3 gRaNd” 😂

Really nice 👌 😍💋 💝💖❤️
