Thanks for watching everyone! Looking forward to putting this rig to the test. In the meantime I've got a pretty cool build/CAD modeling video in the works. Stay tuned! 👍
Another great idea and video. I have been using Orlandoo components for my 4x4 model to RC conversions. Some of the components may save you headache as they sell the components individually. Stuff like the axels, shocks, links, etc are well built and scaled for 1/24&1/25 model kits. Keep up the great work.
For the transfer case you should try some small o-rings they are stronger than rubber bands and will slip rather than snap like small gears if there is any binding in the drivetrain This is used in some lego technic kits If you need more friction on the pulleys you can add more groves and rings without add much more strain to parts unlike what rubber bands
Thank you ! you've been inspiring me for the past few years to try and do scale rc myself, and I'm finally doing it. It's hard to do, it takes a lot of time to fine tune and reprint things, but seeing you do it and discovering new techniques helps a lot.
Dude! That’s one cool little functional 1/24 scale chassis! All it needs is a jeep cj7 body on it!👌🥰👍👉❤️ you know! This is the kind of realistic modeling I had in mind when building 1/24 scale models back in the 70s when I was kid and even through the 80s in my 20s! Now with the technology these days! Seems like anything is possible. Amazing!
Really exciting to see the progress on this project! If it does ever get to a point where you can sell these as a kit im definitely getting one. Until then im excited to see a body on it!
holy crap man. I'm very into 1:24 crawlers and have some I've invested a lot into building. but I've always wanted to build a scale trail truck. this is the first time I've ever seen leaf springs at this scale. so awesome!
Interesting, I find a lot of familiar ideas and problems similar to mine! I also have an idea to use springs instead of CV-joints, but in 1/87 scale. Also, you can try O-rings instead of rubber bands in distribution box. I am doing a crane winch with 2 O-rings, and it is surprisingly grippy. Don't know if it will slip in your case though. Also, resin-printed gears will definitely be more precise at that size, and there are resins that are tough enough for such applications. Resin printing is of course, a whole new hobby with its learning curve. As for tyres, if you don't find ready-made ones, you can always try casting polyurethane in 3D-printed molds (or make a silicone mold of your plastic tyres and cast polyurethane into that)
I think this chassis and idea has much more in common with the AutoRC Geko24 than any of the Orlandoo Hunter kits. The Geko24 is designed for 24th scale model kit bodies, just like you're trying to do. Why not use a Geko24 drivetrain and build a leaf-sprung chassis around it? They are available on Tiny4x4, the very website you showed toward the end of this video.
RC4WD makes .7” wheels and scale tires to go with them (Goodyear, BFG, Falken). There are around 10 tire options and 6 or 7 wheels. I have lots of their 1” tires like you find on scx24, fcx24, etc. and love how scale they are. But the .7 may be more scale for your project. Worth a look!
You should really do a video about your 3d printer setup. because obviously you have mastered printing micro parts with a FDM printer. id like to make similar builds but don't have the printer set up to do so.
Would be great to see what you could do with the Revel VW T3 Vanagon camper. It have to be Syncro aka 4wd. I do have such kit still unbuilt. My first plan was to fit it to a Mini-Z chassis. I also have a Mini-Z overland BMW X5/Land Cruiser, but it's sadly only rwd. But with good suspension travel.
Leaf springs. stack Aluminum can shims Only challenge will be to get the loop on the ends Shocks could be eazy just cylinder and rod. Sloppy fit packed with the thickness of Grease that works the best.

Would you entertain the idea of making popular current or vintage toys (like Halo, Star Wars, G.I. Joe, etc..) into RC machines?
Thanks!

Is it just me or does he sound like he could voice how it's made or something like that 😂
This is the perfect chassis ! the best solution to use when you want to adapt some bodies ! What a Talent ! thanks for sharing : )

I reposted this on FB. It's pretty cool. Thanks for showing it
Glad you like it! Thanks for sharing. 👍

Congratulations on the chassis! Is looking great!
My birthday was this past Sunday and I would like to build something cool for myself… I can’t wait to see what this becomes!!
🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@MakeItRC thank you!!!!!
This is awesome man. The leaf springs are an absolute seller
I love it, Is there a way I can get the STL for the crawler so can run some test of my own?
That transfer case is giving me an idea for a front wheel drive model that I have.
Really exciting to see the progress on this project! If it does ever get to a point where you can sell these as a kit im definitely getting one. Until then im excited to see a body on it!
Hello, nice New châssis. Love it
Leaf spring supremacy 💪🏼💯
You could make the driveshafts out of brass tubing or stainless rods. Brass can be easily soldiered.
It would be cool if you made it somewhat able to be made longer so it could be used with longer wheelbase trucks.
holy crap man. I'm very into 1:24 crawlers and have some I've invested a lot into building. but I've always wanted to build a scale trail truck. this is the first time I've ever seen leaf springs at this scale. so awesome!
Thank you! Definitely something a little different but hopefully just as fun. 👍
Super cool. Just need weight as well. I’d love this to make a jeep like my real one. And love the fact all the make it rec. looks realistic
Nice idea.

Where can i find the files for the printed crawler course you were using?

you may want to try ordering nylon gears from industrial SLS printing service. The price of the 0.25 nozzle could get you a few dozen of them.
Good thinking. I sort of defaulted to metal when thinking about those gears, but a stronger plastic could be a good mix of strength to cost. 👍
Muito bom o vídeo amigo está bem realista e bem detalhado o chassis para o tamanho dele.😍🤩👍👏
check out the Kyosho mini Z 4x4 tires. They’re quite small and very detailed and decent rubber compound.
Would be great to see what you could do with the Revel VW T3 Vanagon camper. It have to be Syncro aka 4wd. I do have such kit still unbuilt. My first plan was to fit it to a Mini-Z chassis. I also have a Mini-Z overland BMW X5/Land Cruiser, but it's sadly only rwd. But with good suspension travel.
What’s the module of the transfer case gears? 0.5? Thanks
Hey, what size are the brass gears?
This looks like it be perfect to put under a 1/24 suzuki samurai model kit...
Estimado, me encanta tu trabajo, ¿cómo puedo hacerme de los archivos STL?
Where can I find the electronics you use?
Once these go up, I’m going to make a 1967 ford f250
Nice. If you haven't already, you might like some of the 67 Ford truck kits from Moebius. I've heard great things about those kits.
@@MakeItRC that’s what I’m thinking!
I would love to print one im working on a scratch build XJ, been designing a scale body in Nomad sculpt that I can use to make parts for it
Looks like it’s really needs a Scout 80 or 800 on it. 😊
Subscribed! Great content. What filament type do you use for the majority of the chassis?
Reminds me alot of the 1/25 scale proline ambush…
I'm trying to find the video you did with the promotion car because I have a car I'd love to make rc
Is this the video you're looking for? ruclips.net/video/XWPS4xmIzD0/видео.html
@@MakeItRC thank you and yes it is i have a Thema and lois car (81 caprice cop car) I'd love to try a chassis on
I can finally finish my 78 ford f150 now
Now it just needs a 4 link option
I'm sure there's small tires that you could get for those wheels
Soon an 8-10 wheel option 😅
Why would you not just print some soft tires instead of buying them?
The fcx’s still have better slow crawl than the scx’s
Ever heard of orlandoo hunter, make 1/32 rc car kits much better
Leaf springs. stack Aluminum can shims
Only challenge will be to get the loop on the ends
Shocks could be eazy just cylinder and rod. Sloppy fit packed with the thickness of Grease that works the best.
3D printed gear cuter. Much like a key copying Machines
you should take a look at the element enduro24 and build off of that
You should try RC4WD .7" tires
