This was not pointless at all :)
I've always thought when i saw these types of trucks how cool it would be with real fans instead of just plastic.
Same here!
We’ve all spent more time and effort doing a lot less awesome things for the same reasons you did this. It’s spectacular and I love it hah.
That's the truth! Thank you very much!
Exactly, 😁👍
Ppp
wow it had "fans" as stock :o that's some crazy detail. And your mod is on a another level! stay safe and keep up the good work 👍🏻
Thank you so much. You stay safe too...we are in some weird times right now.
@@AMPROEngineering where can i buy this?
Thank you!
Sure thing! I am making a change to them at the moment.
Thanks for making the fans functional, I'm in the process of making an fpv setup for mine and I'm using this fan plate to blow air onto the vtx.
Perfect! It was just begging for the mod.
I've done this before when I geared my slash for speed, although my aftermarket receiver had a aux port where I connected the fan and was able to turn it off and on with the remote, was neat, and it did work rather well.
Oh I like that!
I'm surprised RC Companies have not made working fans for the UDR. Great Vid! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I agree! Thank you!
You can never, ever ignore the cool factor.
No, working fans, not matter how useless, are just "cool"....haha!
People doing things that make them giggle with joy is always great to watch. It doesn't matter how useless this mod is, you get a laugh out of it, that's good enough for me! lol
Thats what im talking about!
About time ! Some ones made that fan to work with duct!! The important part :):)
Yeah i mean i know it doesnt do much but I wanted it to do something!
Soon as I get paid, I’m 1000 percent buying one. I hope you still make it even though it’s been 2 years since you uploaded this video.
Oh yea, it is at MyMiniFactory and shapeways. Links in description. Hit me up at amproengineering@gmail.com if you have any questions.
Awesome detail man. It's never pointless if it's cool. -"Angry" Dave
Thank you! I was just watching your Axial SCX10 II F100 unboxing last night. I needed some on mine and that did the trick.
That's awesome, might have to do that to mine I just bought just for awesomeness
Anything to make fans work! haha!
I love doing these kinds of DIY stuff with RC's! This was awesome to watch, I don't have a UDR yet, but when I do, I will be doing this! Just subscribed, I look forward to more on your channel ;)
You're going to enjoy it! Awesome scale machine that should IMHO be driven scale with mild bashing, plenty of jumping and doughnuts galore! It performs best in sand/dirt. Due to the solid rear axle on grass especially wet grass it might tumble and flip a bit... I love it😁 Make sure to open ALL the Diffs and transmission to clean out and fill the cups with appropriate oil and grease all the gears and axles. I do this 3 times a year👍
Thank you so much. I know they don't actually do much but the whole concept of them being operational is what I was concerned about.
Cool Beans👍
Thanks!
Wasn't pointless at all. I really enjoyed the video. I feel the same way and wondered if the UDR fans worked from factory.i don't have one so seeing this video caused me to buy the fan assembly so I can do something similar for the Mojave EXB roller I'm going to purchase soon. To purchase the back shroud from the site is kind of pricey so I may just buy 2 tornado fans and leave the back open for the meantime. Thanks for the idea, I 👍🏼, liked plus subscribed.
Thanks Joseph. I know its not really needed but I just thought it would be cool!
That light up blue !! Bad ass
I know, cool right!
Happy to hear you laugh. COOL project indeed!
Hah thanks! It was fun.
I ordered this from you, and the other parts from amazon before the video ended!
Can't wait to see if I can make this work :)
It is a pretty simple build. I wouldn't say it helps with cooling but it looks awesome! hahah!
@@AMPROEngineering I'm more into how cool it looks. Every time I see a non functional scale accessory like that it bugs me that it's fake. This is great! I might do the head/taillights too. The price is worth it for such custom stuff. Thank you!
@@AdamAlistair I feel the same way! I cant recall the price, it really depends on your country and material selection.
@@AMPROEngineering I am Canadian, so it’s substantial. 😂
Awesome. Would've been nice to see actual footage of it up and running with everything reinstalled at dusk
I will soon! I dont think I had the body done when i filmed this.
looks great and has a function! that is already better than the stock version...
That's true!
Very cool 🤩 thank you for the video
Glad you liked it!
That is frakking awesome. Just subscribed.
Why thank you!
"Pointless", and that's precisely the point to doing it...making it your own...back in the day(20yrs ago) before 3d printers, we used to hand fab all kinds of things, "pointless" as they may have been, they were really cool, as this is...kudos...
I agree with that. Pointless stuff is some of the best stuff
I give "like" to your video before even I see it yet!! But this video worth "like"and after that I see it!!This TRAXXAS UDR is monster !!! very awesome!
Haha! Thanks! Yes it is a sizable truck.
It's cool to have a truck that looks real then to make the fake real .
I thought the same, hahah!
This is awesome
Thank you!
This is genius bro... sweeet
Thank you!
Love it! Totally awesome idea! Can't wait to do this to mine!
Glad you like it. I couldn't bear the idea that something like this did not have operational fans
@@AMPROEngineering I agree with you. Glad you made an awesome design. Can't wait to make my own.
wow man!!! awesome!
Thanks!
That is totally Rad, want to do this on my scale slash build.
how much for the STL file?
The STL is on my mini factory. Link in description! Send an email when you have it installed!
Man that is cool!
Thank you!
AWESOME video! Love the work and the detailed install.
Glad you enjoyed it!
very interesting modification , Love it
A bit silly but fun!
Beyond cool! Love seeing this kind of stuff! New subscriber here!
Thanks man! I am glad you like it!
Thats Tight! Almost looked like those fans lit up? That would look nice at night!
Thanks Kevin. Yes, they have built in LED's for no reason other than why not, haha!
That’s is a sick mod bro
Thank you!
Actually this was really interesting to watch. Thanks for the great work
Sure thing!
what i did is added a second water cooler right there, and one smaller one in the front aswel. i wired the water system like:
reservoir-front cooler-electronics-rear cooler-reservoir again. i initially wanted to make it to go to the ESC from the front one, then to the rear one and from there to the motor, but that would be less effective.
That is a good idea!
Super cool
Thank you!
So great! I am a detail freak and I want to eventually make the machine as detailed as possible. Where might a pre-fabricated part be available for those of us without a 3D printer setup?
YES! There is a link in the description but last week I made a change to make the part less expensive and its getting approved. Give it a couple days.
Love it!
Thanks!
Bad ass. Great job
Thanks!
You can try to use the yeah racing 40mm fans, I use 1 on my slash 4x4 and it's so strong at 5v that it will blast snow off the blades if it touches them.
I will check them out!
Nice job you are the man
Thanks Ronnie!
it's ridiculous........yes it is, that why we love it :)
I hear that! Hahahha!
Very cool 😎👍
thank you Cal!
Smooth job, cool video. Keep it up!
Will do!
聪明动手能力强值得学习
谢谢!
Great video, great content and channel! Subscribed! Wish I had a fraction of your talent!
Oh I am sure you do! I just dont show the failures so it makes me look good, haha!
@@AMPROEngineering do you do custom jobs upon request? I may need an expert's help with a small RC project
Love the video super cool.
Thank you!
That's so cool!
Thank you!
This is very cool.
Next week in; Is he ever actually going to run his UDR?
NO ! that would get it dirty. :) Might as well put the whole RC car in a trash bag and just poke the wheels out.
HAHAHAHHA! As soon as the interior is done I will run it. I took the car apart for a lot of these "Up Grades"...
I like that idea...
@@AMPROEngineering if you make everything on the udr work i will subscribe 5000 times with my alts
Could be intresting to paint one or two fanblades black, so that the spinning of the fans would be more pronounced? Great stuff :D
That is a good idea!
Hope your still around making these. I want one
Yup! Links in description!
That was a bad ass
Thanks!
Isn't the ESC fan blowing outwards/up from the ESC? Like it's pushing the heat away. Shouldn't those fans be pulling the hot air away from the ESC and blowing it out the back?
The fans are blowing into the ESC since the ESC fan is blowing into the ESC. On the real car, yes, that is how they work but the Traxxas already has a fan so these simply help. If the pulled heat out, they would counteract the factory esc fan.
Hey would it be possible for you to extend the cooling ducked down to the motor if I were to cut a hole in plastic above it
yes in theory but there would be a lot more losses in a longer duct and likely not push enough air to really help.
Inspired! 👍
Thanks! That's what's important!
AMPRO Engineering I was in CNC engineering for 35 years, so I know what goes into making your own parts. Anyone can throw a battery in it and bash away, I think it’s great that your making it “Yours”. 😁
could i just run the fan wires into a plug and plug it into the reciver in the reciver box
I replied to your other post but here you go in case "Well, the voltage on most receivers isn't high enough usually. On top of that, that could be a bit too much current. Safely, I would say no."
Could the fans be powered by a ubec, connected to the batteries the same way as you did?
I dont see why not. As long as the fans dont draw too much.
Sad we cant get the part anymore
What part? Mine is on MyMiniFactory for home prints and Shapeways for purchase. Links are in description.
I wonder how much quicker the battery drains having those fans going while driving around.
They dont draw much at all but I suspect a bit.
Just show but realistic work
Totally.
Sup buddy it looks like you had the same idea as me now my question is where can I get that 3D printed rear end
Well who could blame us? I mean the fans are in there! Links in description!
wouldnt the dust fly directly inside the ESC?
There is already a suction fan on the esc. These wont add much to it.
Love your attention to detail! I'm planning to tap the ESC for power but for using the Traxxas OBA (On-Board Audio) on my UDR. I did this for my Slash ESC that didn't have OBA & it worked GREAT! BUT if I did this for my UDR & I use the UDR Jumper Connector (single 6S lipo), then can I simply solder to the black & red wires of the 1st lipo port? Since the 2nd lipo port has the jumper connector plugged in, right?
Well if you use the 1st port, wouldnt that only give you 3.7v? Super sorry man, i dont think im following you. email me at amproengineering@gmail.com
@@AMPROEngineering I just sent you an email, thx!
That is neat ....but the LED's are cheesy....and you should suck the hot air out...not push in.....
Well I wanted to suck air out but the ESC fan right there sucks in so I had to push it. Yeah the LED's are silly for sure.
So the truck was water proof but not now I see.
I would never, ever, ever get any RC wet.
So you never seen the videos of the UDR going thru and under water and still keep working? Traxxas water proof the UDR.
What wheel and tires are you running?
Factory wheels and tires. I made caps for the wheels. I have two variations. Episode 247 shows the caps and there is a link in the description to both sets on shapeways. I can place them on MyMiniFactory too. Email me at amproengineering@gmail.com if you would like them there.
what wheels are those you got on the UDR?
These are Ampro hub caps we designed. See episode 247
I like this video very much i decuded i will do the same to my UDR.
I am now a new "fan" of yours :)
+1 sub
Thank you so much!
You will be lots satisfied with wtf fans!
That's the truth.
Regarding the product link, if I buy it, will it include the voltage converter thingy? And If so, is it already adjusted for 12v?
Very cool mod btw!
Alex, this is only for the printed part. Everything else is sourced on ebay. I used to have links but as is with ebay, the sellers all change. Glad you like it!
I just ordered my UDR should be here in two weeks, how can I order this? Badass man!!!!
Ha Hah Hah! Glad to hear. All links are in the description as well as where to find the fans
Do you have the design for free or is it only paid for
Only paid for. Without income, this company does not exist.
Can you send rc Street boss one of that please
There are links in the description to where you can get one.
Do you have a link to the fans you used?
I used to but the seller is gone now. All you have to do is search for 40 mm x 40mm computer fans and find some light up ones. They're pretty generic. I have the depth in the description
@@AMPROEngineering thanks. You mentioned 10mm thickness in the video.
I'd luv to buy for mine :):)
They are on Shapeways and MyMiniFactory soon!
When upgrading anything in a RC vehicle you ask yourself two questions. Is this going to improve my vehicle and is it worth the time and money but there is always an X factor when upgrading anything in your vehicle. Does it make my rig cooler than it was will often Trump the other two questions and that by far is the case here. Cooler is the trump factor here and who doesn’t want working fans in their UDR. Super Cool
Yeah, that is for sure. Cooler is better! Haha!
@@AMPROEngineering Love your stuff my man. Getting an old Hornet ready for a Super Fly II build so I'm brushing up on You Tube to ensure I get all the parts I'm going to need.
Why didn’t you hook the voltage regulator up to the output from the receiver you could just plug it in and you didn’t have to do any soldering
This wasn’t a useless video this is something I would do
That's a great question. The reason I didn't i was that i was not sure what else I would run off of the receiver . I know I will have at least two sets of lights, maybe more, so then I didn't want to pull too much current from it. Perhaps it wouldn't have mattered? This was at least a safe spot to get access to power.
AMPRO Engineering I have one rc with 30 led lights in it so I know that doesn’t matter
@@nomusicrc led's take very little power of amperage to run them. Not the same as fans, which takes a bit more than led's.
TheAmericanUhate I know this you can still put a bunch of led’s on one channel and a fan on another that’s what I do each fan has its own channel
How much to buy it from you 100% done, plug and play?
Really sorry man, I just do not have the bandwidth to make that affordable. My hourly rate is usually $250 so there is no way I can do that with any semblance of sanity.
Wo bekomme ich den Adapter? Mfg
In der Beschreibung sind zwei Links.
@@AMPROEngineering der Link geht aber nicht
We're can i get this set up
There are links in the description as well as information on the fans necessary
Do you sell these? 😊
Yes. there are links to shapeways to buy the SLS print or MyMiniFactory for home prints. All the info is in the description.
Can we buy these from you?
There are links in the description on where to get these. They are sold through both of my shops
would have been better to extend that nozzle down to the motor as it will do FAR more than the ESC...
It is there mostly for looks.
Put liquid cooling in it. Lol
Oh yeah, lol!
A larger scoop at the end near ESC would work better if the fans were drawing the air up and the fans sucked. seeing as heat rises.
This wont work as the internal fan sucks air in.
Always down to watch pointless videos 🍺😂👍🏽
HA! Glad to hear it.
hee hee !
I feel the same way
chassis name:UNLIMITED desert race
but it limits the fan that ampro is going to put
I would say a bit, haha
This is awesome
Thank you!
