Haha! BTW, what is this, opposite week? Josh charges himself $26.43 (way too much) for 3D printed parts and Matt only charges himself $0.43?! Loving the series guys.
Hat's off to you for making available the template, but even more so for letting folks in on the rarely spoken of technique of actually hand cutting out parts! I know, I know.....I've got grey hair and need to get with the times. But it's nice to see someone give options for those kids out there that don't have or know how to use a 3D printer. It's too easy to leave the low to no budget kids behind, leaving them to think they can't join in because they don't have the fancy gadgets. That's a real shame. So I gratefully applaud you and would encourage more alternative suggestions like this to give everyone an opportunity and method of enjoying the hobby. :)
Look up "pounce pad." Use a spiked wheel to trace the outline, it pokes holes along the outline, then the pounce pad deposits toner through the holes to transfer the outline directly onto the material for cutting 😉 👍
Dude do realise every devious thing you do . You give it away with face gestures and eye movements. Glad you are a guy that can not lye . Without giving it away . . Ledgend
Both the build off cars are looking great, and it's so interesting to see, right from the start, how different builders minds work, and how difficult the cars are going to be. It's great viewing, thank you. 👍🏻
I watch mat first. Always. You second buddy. Both you guys rock . Much banter and respect. Both of you teach me a lot . And great times watchin you guys duel
WOW, this is awesome!! I've been thinking about this exact thing, making a new chassis for the SCX24. The stock one is not adjustable, and very flimsy. Mine is a pair of noodles after a hundred or so packs of crawling and tumbling. I'll definitely be checking out your files, I've already printed a few accessories from your previous uploads! I'd likely hand make something from aluminum thought, my 3d printer is a Mini Delta, so not enough build space for chassis, etc. Thanks again!! Off to the other side of this build..
Thanks for sharing all the files, defantly going to use this on my build i have just started. is there any chance we could get a dxf for the chassis? i want to modify it a fraction for carisma shocks . I have been trying to convert the stl in fusion 360 without any luck. Many thanks again for the files
Wow that’s awesome Josh, I like that frame and body mount design on the back that’s awesome. Appreciate your sharing as always, I am following you guys this is super cool, this is the true beauty of the Hobby love it
This is a supercool frame. If you wanna build the best performing SCX24, then do not make the same mistake as Matt and buy the huge outrunner (Komodo, Surpass 1400). You will not get the best performing SCX24 with these huge and super heavy motors, you will only get the strongest SCX24 with slowest crawling ability (what looks cool). If you wanna get the best performing SCX24, stay brushed. Go 3s, with a tiny 180 mAh or 300 mAh Lipo (even with SCX24 stock motor, or Barrage motor), you will be "unbeatable". You do not even have to change SCX24 stock electronics, can use the stock RX/ESC unit with an external ESC. You can use a Furitek Lizard (only 2s), but then you will only get better driving performance than stock only in forward direction, in reverse it will even worse than with stock ESC. Absolute best performance you will get with a light brushed motor (Barrage, but even stock SCX24) and the AS12/6 or AS12/15 boat ESCs (clearly better than Furitek brushed in forward and of course reverse), only downside is no direct forward/reverse, tiny safety "break" in between, hardly noticeable, but it is here (safety feature for battery and expensive motors).
Don’t worry, he’s just auditioning the cnc machine we all know he used to cut that carbon fiber chassis lol I have a relative who works in a place with a 3D printer that prints in some sort of carbon fiber reinforced plastic(no idea how that works, probably witchcraft lol). This seems like a good thing to give that a try with!
Have you tried those tires yet? I heard bad things about them and even seen a couple videos of them performing poorly. Thank for posting your chassis design!!! I'm def gonna fire up the printer and give it a go!
Another week of great progress! Sad to see the old bumper design go, but the new one is super clean. I like the sliders and adjustable shock mounts. I did something similar for my SCX24, but it is all built around the TGH-24X carbon chassis. Any reason you didn't put a 5 degree tilt on the skid?
Hi! I did the 4 link swap for the c10, and the shock mounting points aren’t cutting it since the front axle is moved forward. Do you offer pre cut carbon fiber options?
I typically avoid magnets as I usually want a positive locking option, magnets can still come loose. It's just the old competition side of me, any time I've used magnets there has still been a situation where they have failed at least once. I know the hardware wont fail is all.
As I said to your legit mate Matt. Haw many shipping containers of parts did you order a month before you set up this challenge. Ps Bring back Tom. I took you more serious. . You guys rock . Love the banter yo and your bro have . Rc love. . 10 sheets of carbon this week
I wish everybody could hear what you just said you don't want a ton of flex all these people think you want stuff just to flex out big old 58 mm shocks on a little bitty scx24 it is insane but what's crazy is it gets huge views
Nice. Is there a reason why you would use ABS sheet material over printing with ABS, PETG, or PC filaments other than the fumes from printing ABS? So I was assuming you used the cnc to machine the carbon fiber versus the methods you mentioned for ABS and aluminum. I would probably lean more towards 3D printing or maybe the aluminum based on my workshop of tools. Really appreciate taking us through the custom chassis route with options that are really budget friendly.
ABS sheet is going to be stronger than printed materials just by nature of the manufacturing. Printing is much easier of course however. And also it’s easy for someone to cut a sheet if they don’t have a printer.
@@HarleyDesignsInc Hello. you left a link to this video on the thingiverse website. I came here to see how to connect the frame, what other fasteners I need. instead, I listened to something I didn't understand. where is the detailed instructions for assembling this chassis?
I actually filmed an in-depth description of everything and the process but it was WAAAAAY too long so I refilmed for this shortened version. Yes I did design for forward motor config mainly.
I have a question. I have been looking for some to design a front servo mount for an scx24 that mounts the servo vertical and has a spot for the battery. Can be designed to work with 15mm wheel spacers and and a smaller battery. I have a spider build an have been puting the battery on top of the servo 🤨🤢
@@HarleyDesignsInc thankyou very much.......you need to take the clear betty body paint it red...get vynl stickers made that say lil red express and 3d print some ehaust pipes for behind the doors.
With enough time and modifications, people who bought an Axial SCX24 will have very little parts leftover from the box. Might as well just start off by buying the mods and build from scratch.
This is common with almost any scale/trail truck. But if you buy the RTR you can upgrade and drive along the way, and see how you want to upgrade as you go. It's easier for most people.
I feel like 3d printing shouldn't be allowed . I don't think Matt's doing it. Also the common person can't just go upstairs and print w.e they like. I also thinks it's kinda cheap he picked the most expensive scx24 to start with. I think Matt has this.
Matt also is using 3D printing and it is a popular area that is being integrated into the hobby. While not everyone has one, I’ve found that nearly 30% of people in the Hobby do. Also many people have access to one thru a friend, school or work. It’s something that could help push more people to pick one up. Also, the Betty was not the cheapest, it was right in the middle. Matt used the cheapest one actually.
Huh, your Dremel got away from you, interesting.

If you have spray glue handy it’s a quick spray (not thick) and stick that pattern on there. Easy as.
I use a glue stick to hold templates when cutting,When I'm finished, the paper peels off and glue washes off.
Purple Elmer's is what I use. I've even used it to hold templates for sinks when cutting counters.
@@lilbroinarizona4315 guitar pedal drilling templates here too
I'd like to see a video specifically on making the CF chassis - show the process, from raw material to ready-to-install.
Thank you for posting the files! This is awesome
Good that you were able to squat that truck
I watch mat first. Always. You second buddy. Both you guys rock . Much banter and respect. Both of you teach me a lot . And great times watchin you guys duel
ABS or ASA filament with 100% infill on my 3d printer is the way I'm going. Thank you for the files :)
Mild Carolina squat. Think you might want to raise that rear a smidge.
Yup, little squat but I think the front will go down rather than raise the rear.
Hell yeah, I made a few chassis for a 1/18 scale ECX temper 2, went from twin vertical plates into a 10”wb flat rail with Tamiya land cruiser body.

I am only kidding.
Very cool build man. I like the frame.

I love this series I am working on my own scx24 when I get home tonight. And I will be taking advantage of the chassis you made 😎
Ram Jam would be proud.
super video, thank you, but where can i get the stl for the frame??
What’s your current recommendation for a first time 3D printer purchase?
Love how much science and math goes into rock crawlin🤣🤙🏽🤙🏽
Have you tried those tires yet? I heard bad things about them and even seen a couple videos of them performing poorly.

Looking awesome brother 👍👍
anyone know if this will work with the deadbolt body? great content btw!
Where did you get the chassie from that 1 Looks to be very accommodating too the motification
Love the home made chassis idea! :D
Nice, could have used magnets for the body, and also what happened to your front bumper?
Love that shirt!!! Very cool Matt 😁
I know the Beatty is a little different than a c-10 but would that chassis still fit a c-10?

Very informative week, thanks man 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Love your show . Larphing my but of like Gilligins island
Awesome dude, thanks for the files
great work, will print out your thingiverse files. just an idea - magnets up front... i hate pins too and the SCX24 doesn't need them:)
I typically avoid magnets as I usually want a positive locking option, magnets can still come loose. It's just the old competition side of me, any time I've used magnets there has still been a situation where they have failed at least once. I know the hardware wont fail is all.
There's also that pesky hole in the hood to deal with.
But I'm old school. Velcro for me

10 sheets of carbon this week
how does that battery perform compared to the stock one?
Do you think it would work to just extend the rear end of this for a Gladiator?
Bad ass chassis!!
Is that truck squatted?
Yeah. It needs leveled out.
I wish everybody could hear what you just said you don't want a ton of flex all these people think you want stuff just to flex out big old 58 mm shocks on a little bitty scx24 it is insane but what's crazy is it gets huge views
will you be doing a das87 Unimog build any time soon?
A silly question. The chassis fit all scx 24 or is only for betty/deadbolt

Awesome chassis man! What aluminum thickness would you recommend for a tenth scale rig?
3.0mm
This is so exciting
Can I buy one of those bumper body pin mounts?
Would be nice to see the chassis layout in more detail.
Did you design it for a motor swap, since you had to trim for the stock motor?
I actually filmed an in-depth description of everything and the process but it was WAAAAAY too long so I refilmed for this shortened version.
Yes I did design for forward motor config mainly.
Hey how come you have still your Tamiya truck, Matt sold his 😁, nice work btw, love the tech stuff you are doing
Was that metal cut out of the shipping containers also free
I have a question. I have been looking for some to design a front servo mount for an scx24 that mounts the servo vertical and has a spot for the battery. Can be designed to work with 15mm wheel spacers and and a smaller battery. I have a spider build an have been puting the battery on top of the servo 🤨🤢
Will this work with the c10
When will your bundle be ready to buy on shapeways?
I’ll get that cleared up right away. It should have been done last night.
Should I print this out of CF Nylon or ABS? CF Nylon should be lighter and stiffer.
CF Nylon if your printer can manage it.
What’s it look like with the smaller tires on it? Just curious
Would have just slapped a magnet mount on the front. JS
Agree
Is that a flat rail chassis!? 😮 Just giving you shit! Nice work! 👍🏼
Can we get a link to where you got the carbon fiber sheet!
Link added to the description. You can also find it on amazon.
Did you ever get that front bumper on shapeways?
Doesn't look like it.
Getting close to the Ship of Theseus paradox...
...so awesome though.
Has anyone that printed this chassis know if it will fit the Deadbolt with a stretched 4 link front?
No messin' around! Just a hand full of rule bending right in the intro!
This is a much better build that other guy. Lol
You should make a run of carbon fiber chassis .
I’ll cut a small number and throw them on my website.
@@HarleyDesignsInc better save one or two for me! Lol I’ll take 2 sets
@@HarleyDesignsInc I’ll definitely take a carbon fiber chassis set as well!!!
You keep squatting your trucks lately - I guess now we know what you're **really** into.
Slaying it!!!!
What are the shock spacers for?
So the shock cap doesn’t rub the chassis when you install them.
@@HarleyDesignsInc okay. Thank you.
The Shapeways link shows “not for sale”??
I’ll check and update.
Updated.
Can’t find those wheels and tires !!!
Did you check the links in the description?
do you think it is possible to print the chassis with a prusa mini, and use pla or petg, plz react, anyone!
Check out my moa fcx24!! Finally got sort of a real comparison with the scx24
Anybody else notice that the Betty came out squatted at the end
Yeah I’ll adjust the front shocks to get it lowered down most likely. I was just running out of time when filming.
