    That thing is awesome Kev. It's redefined the hobby. No longer do you have to go fast or bash a RC car for it to explode it does it first time you touch the throttle! Major timesaver. Makes Stemp a bit redundant though, replaced by a machine that destroys itself, sorry Stemp, you have been made obsolete! That's 2022 for ya!

      Apart from what people think 3d printed parts are actually really strong, you just need to learn to use the material correctly: I have 3d printed rims, but every wall is thick between 5mm and 10mm, same for the Shocks arms. It's really sad for this car to fail like this, it looks like the damages wee caused by real silly errors. I would have made all those blue parts out of molded nylon, the motors mounts almost two times thicker, the chassis thicker, the body mounted traditionally with clips, the motors controlled by a flight controller (like fpv drones) and the wheels belted. It looks like a really good prototype tough, it just need some minor but vitally important modifications 😂😢

    I'm guessing as soon as you come off the power the motors use magnetic field for braking to.

This certainly goes a long way in explaining why the manufacturer demo'd the car on an indoor basketball court. A perfectly smooth surface.

      You really need a special made motor with a huge shaft, maybe 4mm steel if you want it to really be able to survive a beating. Also going to need to design the bell to protect the magnets in the motor better so that dust from the road doesn't just wreck them too.

    The drivetrain, motor setup, and software looks great. Just think they need to work on durability “slightly”.
