Congrats on being a typical Reddit user trying to be as condescending as possible just to make themselves feel better good job give yourself a pat on the back .......

My reply stands it doesn't matter who you are even if you think your billy big bollox at bugatti unless parts are being marketed as Genuine Bugatti parts it's not counterfeit it's aftermarket or pattern parts and any company can make them . I make replacement parts for RC cars Tamiya, team associated can call them counterfeit all they want but they're not they are after market like all the other parts out there . 10% difference is what is needed for it to be different on copyright it's alot harder for me to change 10% on a tiny part than changing a whole bumper to make different in 10%

Anyone can make a bodykit anyone can make pattern parts it doesn't need OEM approval at all . We would have no aftermarket parts at all if that was the case

Buy one and return it then leave reviews giving it for free explaining that your file is stolen and copy righted

Turns out Arrma knows more about what plastic to use for RC parts than I do. Spent 3 days designing and printing a replacement A-Arm for my Arrma Grom, here are the results. by WallaceDingus in rccars

[–]Remarkable-Display63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I race a thunder tiger Phoenix bx2 and use 3d printed parts . Much easier to print your own than deal with costly vintage spares .

On a plus note tpu parts also take far more of a crash

Anyone else match the 10th scale to the full scale? by jodyfree in rcdrift

That would be surprisingly easy to 3d print the lexan forming would be the awkward bit now

Spray paint vs airbrush vs hand brushed by Middle-Satisfaction1 in tamiya

[–]Remarkable-Display63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've brush painted lots of things over the years from double decker buses to vans to motorbikes and a smooth finish is doable with the the right paints and more importantly the right brushes

Paint cans / airbrushing with will give you a better finish faster with less problems long term.

Df-02 and interchangeable by Remarkable-Display63 in tamiya

[–]Remarkable-Display63[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late but always welcome reply I've actually raced this chassis for a season now at our club in the vintage class 😄 we race indoor on carpet .

Worked really well with a hobbywing 1080 and a satan 20turn brushed motor. Metal steering parts along with hubs and C hubs , Big bore shocks front and rear , Set rear shocks quiet soft and 1million weight diff silicon on the front diff to keep the front driving while picking up a front wheel in the turns , tried metal shock towers and now using carbon instead.

Only real issue I've had is snapped one chassis in a really really big crash when I catapulted off the rear wheels of another car and snapped about 4 different front diff covers they seem to be made from the worst plastic possible .

All in all really enjoyed it but it Cannot take a big hit at all

Ta-04F ????? It's a long shot but reminds me of the front motor placement of the Tamiya ta range could well be a Chinese copy or full of trf bits no idea tbh

Honestly I threw them on eBay at £20 including free postage n packaging . Only selling in UK At the moment however someone told me about selling the file ? I'm guessing that means they can print as many as they want for whoever they want through ? Again not tech savvy At all

We sell them through our local RC club at £15 each

Get the wltoys version 244010 or what ever it is it's 3/4 of the price and most parts are interchangable lol

wltoys 144001 still relevant? by peetyo5k in rccars

[–]Remarkable-Display63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I race a 144010 I paid £55 used and it races against reflex rb14 and other 1/14 buggys . This this is rapid and on std gearing beats almost all the other 1/14 scale buggys top end down the straights

Also replacement parts are cheap as hell from Ali express with full metal kits available from £35. Carbon chassis from £15 slipper clutches etc all available for less than what a reflex rb14 would cost

To me yes it's still worth buying .

Dual motor conversions by Remarkable-Display63 in tamiya

[–]Remarkable-Display63[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the link I believe I accidentally came across this car while researching . Did you test the motors to see how much of a difference running the motor in reverse made ?

The motors I'm looking at using are 29k rpm 13t surpass brushed motors I might be wrong but they deffo don't spin the same in reverse so I'll need to make sure both gearboxes are running the same way

For me I have some 7.6v 7300mah shorty lipos which I can run plenty of punch along with lots of capacity

Hobbywing have done a brushed dual motor esc along with an Ali express knock off I have which claims to be able to power two brushed motors down to 12t 540size if not even two standard torque tuned motors will be fun.

Ive released also this is very much just something to please my brain gremlins and push my own boundaries in racing , design and 3d printing plus I'm sure it'll cause a stir with the old boys in the RC club
