AE RC10 4wd .step files

Post by GoMachV »

Obviously not from AE, these were taken from the parts as I built the kit. If anyone wants to play with them, here ya go. Probably not 100%, but should be a real good start. These measurements taken from the kit parts, and have not been adjusted at all for 3d printing. You may need to open up holes, enlarge the bearing pockets, adjust for shrinkage, etc.

I'll update a few extra parts I didn't upload yet when I have more time.

Amazing work in a short period of time!

Now we can make our own copy of the copy. :lol:

So I can load them into a slicer and print them? Or do they have to go through another program first?

Ideally you would want to modify them in fusion360 or similar to compensate for the printing tolerances. If you want to try them as is, Bambu and orca slicer will take step files directly

its amazing how you can cut down development time by being smart. It took me 6 hours to model their parts vs a year of research and development to make it from scratch :lol:

See, you should have just waited for AE to come out with their copy of your design first, and then copied theirs...? 🤯😉
