Randal Trucks?

[magiced]

Hi Buzztiaan! Greetings from Newcastle Makerspace!
I'm going to be using Randall 180s as well as i already have a set. I haven't decided how to mount the motors yet, but i'm leaning in the direction of welded mounts. Once i've finished getting all my parts together i'm going to try printing your mounts and see how they turn out. Great file commenting btw!
Have you considered lost pla casting to turn your 3d prints into aluminium? http://3dtopo.com/lostPLA/

/me waves at newcastle.

I have considered casting it, but am not setup to do so

The plan has always been to get this model to someone to cnc it out of thick aluminium, and then get it welded on, the prints were just as test.

Done ~5km now, still fine, but i really need some loctite

my CNC should arrive soon.. once i have it setup i can look at milling some mate.

Hmm ok , after ~10km the motormount broke, have it glued atm. Wonder how long this will continue

Also added some RGB lights , but no 'party mode' yet, just white/red
