Re: 1/10 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne
 

Do you have any metal in this trk? ie the suspension, frame

Re: 1/10 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne
 

It may be construed that because i stated that this is 3d printed, everything is plastic or PLA or whatever, If you are a real builder, you would know that this is heavy stuff and simply said, a plastic drive shaft or plastic gear would not be able to handle the stresses on the drivetrain...

this is the rolling chassis...

and the drive train...i hope this answers your question...

Looking good! I'll be watching to see how this one goes together.

Re: 1/10 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne
 

Lil Giants not only REAL BUILDER, but a great one to!

Re: 1/10 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne
 

Orange, I don't think Lil Giants intended his comment the way you interpreted. I think he was just curious because it was hard to tell in the pics you'd posted. :)

BTW, did you post pics of this project in my Pete thread on RCC? It looks very familiar! Nonetheless, keep up the good work!

Re: 1/10 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne
 

It’s becomming a really nice truck, and huge :)

Re: 1/10 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne
 

Thank you sir....its about 10 1/2" wide and 28 1/2" long... i will be building only in 1/10 scale so its hard to find parts since tamiya kits and others are on 1/14th scale.... i had to adapt some 1/10 parts such as the axles, transfer case, gearbox and drive shafts, make my own leaf springs, wheel spacers, steering links...
