This project is hat got me interested in RC, the true OG
Fantastic! Thanks for taking the time to do this. This video helped me sort out the design my son and I will be going forward with for our first 3d printed RC! We're going to take the chassis of F1 and combine with the truck body of the Ursa. Most other printed RCs have very complicated drive trains - I love how simple this one is!
Hey that's a super cool idea, definitely post it somewhere we can see it when you're finished! People have done similar builds with the Cybertruck... you can see one here: www.prusaprinters.org/prints/27854-tesla-cybertruck-body-for-openrc-f1-rc-race-car The drivetrain is really simple for sure but you will be missing out on a suspension unless you go for something like this: www.thingiverse.com/thing:1420189
Thank the algorithm for finally including you in my search results! All i want to do is 3d print rc anything, starting at the bottom and working my way through
Nice! Happy you're here!
Nice video!
Thanks!
Nice
Nice car!!!!
Thanks! You should give building one a try! We have build kits at www.rcprinter.com that aren't too expensive.
@@rcprinter I'm already bougth mine.
@@raul.morais nice! Enjoy your build.
Hey man, thanks a lot for the video, im having an issue with the controller not working to accelerate nor steer despite having paired it properly and having a solid red light when the car and the controller is on. (with controller on first). Is there any input you can give me ?
🔥💕👍
I am working on this now. I have printed a few others but so far none to compleation. I was going to use TPU for the tires on mine, I do think this model would be better with a rear differential design as it will likely not turn very well with the solid rear axl.
you can try this: www.thingiverse.com/thing:2361718 designed by the guy who does the mkultra car we sell kits for as well. I find the TPU tires to be too slippy but they're fun to try so knock yourself out.
@@rcprinter Are there tiers that will fit the printed wheels that you can buy? I was working on an OpenRC touring car, but I have not finshed that one. can't find the drive belts for it & I did modify a number of the parts for the car.
@@3DRCRACER If you print the F104 rims you can use these tires: rcprinter.com/products/f104-tires-for-openrc-f1-front-and-rear
i'm not sure of any tires that fit the stock rims though.
Hello i am new to this and going to order your package: Fastener/Bearing/Servo/27T Motor+ESC exactly what do i need more? Only battery and a controller? Or is it something else i have forgot?
I am also wondering
Hey, ya that's pretty much it as long as your controller comes with a receiver and you have a charger for your battery. The only other things would be to decide if you're buying tires or printing tires and then you'll need a few other things like lubricant for the gears, a paperclip for a steering rod, 3d printer filament, possibly some solder and an electrical connector to change the esc power plug to match your battery.
def print those body parts and wings as moulds and lay up with CF though and the chassis can be cut from 2mm CF
That would be a cool project!
@@rcprinter it is :-) I'm creating a Lotus 79 version with ground effect skirts haha
Hey there! I built the car with your kit. So far everything is great. But what do U against the front wheels turning too much? Whenever there is a little bump, they turn so far, that the servo cannot pull them back and I have to manually align them.
one fix to try would be to turn down the end point adjustment on your radio (epa) on the channel your servo is connected to so your wheels don't turn quite so far.
Weird question, but are there any house hold things to use to lube the gears? Like maybe petroleum jelly, some cooking oil, wd-40?
Hey, not weird at all! I totally get that it doesn't make a tonne of sense to go out and buy a tub of superlube when all you need is a little dab. I'm really no chemistry expert but if you're testing some household stuff you definitely run the risk of deteriorating the gears prematurely... however you can always print them again if you need to so the risk is low and I say go for it. I did read in a few forums that petroleum jelly was a good option. I don't think wd-40 would work well and cooking oil would work short term but then get gummy after a while so you might just need to clean and re-apply regularly. You could also try a little lithium grease if you have some and it should last a long time before degrading.
@@rcprinter thanks a ton! You're super helpful, appreciate it :) excited to see the end result
Thank you for this video. Daniel's design is amazing, but his instructions were a little lacking.
glad to help!
Really good video. Very helpfull. I've printed all the parts and now i'm putting it all together. But when I saw your video, everything goes so smoothly. With me it is much more difficult. E.g. to assemble the ball bearings, the rear axle and the spur gear => all this goes very stiffly.
What are the ideal print settings (infill, shell thickness, resolution, ...)? I'm using a Dremel 3D printer => Dremel digilab 3D45 3D printer.
It could be many things causing your parts not to fit but to me it sounds like you're overextruding a bit. Perhaps try turning down your flow rate (or extrusion multiplier) slightly until the bearings pop in nicely and then go with that flow setting for the rest of the parts. For most parts on this vehicle I think I used 2-3 walls at .2mm layer height and a standard 20-30% infill so nothing special. I did end up reprinting a couple of parts with 100% infill when they broke like the axles for instance. You could also try sanding down your parts a bit to get them to fit together better or use a deburring tool to get rid of some of the ridges on the edges so parts fit together more nicely.
which battery did you use?
I don't have a link for you but any 2s lipo around 2200mah or lower should work just fine.
i bought yout brushed kit but dont know how to attach the wires? I have basic soldering skills but dont know what im supposed to do here.
Solder the yellow wire to the positive terminal (there's a +) on the motor and the blue wire to the negative, then you can connect your esc. You'll likely need to change the power plug on the esc to match whatever plug is on the battery you're using (xt60, deans t-plug, tamiya etc). If you're still having issues send us an email and I'll send you some pics :)
Where abouts do you solder the wires to on the motor?
Where does the antenna from the receiver go?
anywhere! mine just curls around the inside compartment.
Is it possible to make the thing larger?
ohhh yeah... czcams.com/video/91sf-Nr5m6Y/video.html Here's the biggest one.
Can you please tell me front bearing size??
The 4 front bearings are 8x12x3.5mm ... Hardware is listed in the description on our site here: rcprinter.com/products/openrc-f1-hardware-kits
Tyres TPU!!!
What bearings size for the wheels
The smaller ones mr128. 8x12x3.5mm
@@rcprinter just finishing up the tires and wanna test it out but haven't got the bearings so it runs all rough n loud lol
@@rcprinter anyways thanks alot!
@@caulkwater no prob my dude
