To print those parts faster you can replace to 0.6 nozzle, it will decrease the time dramatically. Just checked in the slicer and each straight parts will take just 45 minutes

I just got a 3d printer from Santa and am still learning. Mine is taking 4.5 hours a pop for the 3ft pieces :D I need to try some new methods I guess :D
I think more people need to see this! currently, I'm printing out a bunch of these curbs at 80% scale, 0.6mm nozzle, 0.3mm layer height and i can get 4 of them printed in 3 hours! these will go GREAT in my apartment garage!
When I checked in to the pre-made 'Kerbs' track prices, I spent a few minutes trying to figure out how many came in a pack 🤣 Thanks for making the prints available!
Oh man those 3d printed curbs are the JAM! I have an ender3 and adjusting infill could make it faster too. Garden wall on the outside edges could be the ultimate combo. Nice! I have a 66 vette in my 3 car garage but if i back it out i could have quite the track layout with the bumpers taped down! Thanks man!!!

This is a fantastic video and after watching it I looked into the channel and I got to say a fantastic channel as well for people looking to get into the hobby like myself very knowledgeable very informative very creative solutions to what seem like you're going to be problems that pop up a lot across the board got to say man I haven't been this enthusiastic to smash or subscribe button and quite some time and I have no doubt in the very near future once I've seen a little bit more membership will definitely need to be a thing as well. Sorry for the run-on with no punctuation but your video just kind of struck and I'm absolutely enthralled by it.
@RoadsideRC thank you for your guidance. This RDX is my first drift car. I'm just learning how to drive it lol. So different from off road buggy racing. Do you think the yokomo gyro is worth the extra money? What's your favorite gyro that you run in your cars? I'm close to building another drift car lol so I'm doing some more research.
@RoadsideRC no unfortunately I don't know anybody that would do it.. bummer! But in your case ..I get it. That is a lot of time to print off these parts for sure!... Time for Troy to get an industrial printer! Lol
thanks for providing the 3D print files! Might try and suggest some locals to use them for their tracks instead of using normal tapes. However the video seems more focused on track layout instead of surfaces though, would love to see you suggest what kind of surfaces (or p tiles) a beginner should learn to drift on to start practicing
Thank you! Yes - not focused on the surface - I should have added that!! My suggestion is always to use the slickest surface and hardest tire possible. It is more difficult, but if you can drift on that - you can drift anywhere.
Thats soo amazing!! Im definitely gonna find someone that would be able to print those tracks and clips. Thank you troy u are absolutely amazing. Cant wait!!
My dud u just made my day thank u i am so hooked on your channel and love your energy big thanks again from down under just send it mate. also have you done a vid on OMG servo and gyro if so link me up plz legend.
I need to learn how to set up my nb4 radio and yokomo yd2 car for drift. I'm kind of new to it so it's all our of wack. Any videos on set ups when it comes to throttle steering and other things to help me get nice drifts ?
I like that landscape border you use...what brand is it...i actually want to be able to set up track for 1/16 scale...normal race car driving...thanks for sharing
I'm glad you made this because just a few months ago I spent a lot of time searching for basic track info. I did wind up finding the garden edging but this would have been very helpful. I'm sure this will help anyone looking to make a home track like I was. Love the idea of the 3D print tracksides and barriers. I wonder if it would be cost prohibitive to sell a set or sets on something like shapeways or similar service? I don't know if they require any upfront investment by the seller. Undoubtedly they take a commission on all sales
Thanks Andy!! I bet you are right, someone could probably sell these and at least make a little $$. Like I mentioned in the video, the time for printing really was the big hassle here.
They can move if hit the right way, but mostly stay in place. They move more when folks walk on them. In a couple areas, I have used double-sided tape to hold them still.
where did you get the fake grass and what size did you get using those 3 ft sections ? im printing the track now have about 60 pieces done in 3 days with bamboo printer
It's a good thing that they move, prevents damqge to the car. I'd rather move track pieces back then replace parts or scuff up my bodies.but some 2 sided tape would probably do it.
As I'm watching this, I'm thinking, it would be really cool if we could have some kind of track builder app set to a grid that would help visualize and calculate the amount of pieces needed to Make a track, and all the measurements and diameters
hey there ! i have a question, how do you make the 3d printed things stay in place ? ive also seen some video of tracks with a realistic street barrier and i wonder how can it stay in place if you crash in it
I haven't done anything to these. I have left them free so I can move and change the layout. My plan is some simple double-sided tape to hold them in place when I want to. Movement hasn't been a problem.
I randomly bought a team associated apex lexus isf edition with box and everything. Even came with the box and manual and it was barely even used, had the oem wheels and tires on it still with around 80% tread left on them for only 120 bucks on offer up lol I bought some drift tires for 10 bucks on ebay and after 20 minutes i decided it is time to build a new age rwd drifter...smh, here goes more money
Hey man, is there anyway we could talk? Me and my buddy are wanting to get into RC drifting. We bought kyosho mini z’s but after one day of using them both cars won’t steer correctly getting stuck to one side. Thanks!
We don’t mind spending the money on the nicer ones but the guy at the store told us the mini z’s would be a good starter but like I mentioned we are having issues with them
@@RoadsideRC could you send me a link to a good car to buy? Not really looking for a 1/10 scale car yet but if you think that’s what’s best I can’t argue. Just would like something a little smaller for like my kitchen and baseman for now. But like I said I’m open to whatever your suggestions may be. Also if you have venmo or something I don’t mind sending a donation for your help. Thanks for your help!
@@chastinwickline2148 Honestly, I do not suggest any of the smaller scale vehicles. They just really are not good. The 1:10 RTRs are your best starting spot. Here is a guide: czcams.com/video/yRmuX4-UNmE/video.html
I don't own a 3d printer, is there a 3d print service online you recommend for printing these Troy? Or maybe someone in the community who wants to do it for me lol :D Great idea, I had a feeling when you first showed some of these on the desk. I could see the drift clips getting revisions to click to the track pieces as well. I have been makign my own clips using poly tubes, magnets and cute little bells lol :D
Robin! Great idea on revising the drift clips to hook in there. I might just do that!!!! I think the best bet is getting someone local to print them for you. Not sure about online printing services - but maybe someone does it.
@@RoadsideRC I was going to try a few online services to see who was the best option. Currently have a list of a few places. I figure if I can get them 3d printed affordably, it will help others too. :D

thanks alot for the files. now i printer is gonna have some work to do. been wanting to set up a track for a while

Thank you!
Boy I wish you would sell those! I could use some for my basement track I've been looking forever and the tetsugin kerbs are super expensive
I may at some point - but taking enough time to print them is a hurdle. You have anyone in your area with a printer?

awesome work Troy, just resin printed 1 3 foot ripple strip, 1/2hr she took

I bet you are right, someone could probably sell these and at least make a little $$. Like I mentioned in the video, the time for printing really was the big hassle here.
Also what do you use to keep them down on the floor and still lay flat ?
Everything for the track is just laying there. Has not been glued/taped down.
Do the curbs move around or slide on the floor when hit? Do you have something to secure them to the surface?
They can move if hit the right way, but mostly stay in place.
They move more when folks walk on them. In a couple areas, I have used double-sided tape to hold them still.
@@RoadsideRC Ok cool! I drew a track with chalk here but want something that wont wash away with the rain.
where did you get the fake grass and what size did you get using those 3 ft sections ? im printing the track now have about 60 pieces done in 3 days with bamboo printer
Nice!
The grass is from Home Depot. They sell it in rolls for pretty cheap.
Hey, question. How do you get the PLA bits to stay down? wouldn't they move when the car hits them.
So far, they have not moved very much with the drift cars.
My plan is just double-sided tape stick them down.
It's a good thing that they move, prevents damqge to the car. I'd rather move track pieces back then replace parts or scuff up my bodies.but some 2 sided tape would probably do it.

Oh - that is a REALLY good idea.
I did a lot of trial-and-error to piece what I have together.
Hey bud how much would you suggest scaling these down for 1/47 cars like the jiabaile?
I think you would need to scale them at 1/4 to get it close.
Let me know how that works out!
Uuh! Nice👍
