I finally finished model 7 (Buggy) from 3dsets. It was fun to build, but mistake to take it in forest (one screw loose near one rear wheel).
Great stuff! How did you find their gearboxes and driveline strength?

There is belt gearbox, I found belts in my local shop. Or how did you mean your questions? I found all in non printed parts bom
Sorry! in English “how did/do you find” something also means what is your opinion on something. I meant to ask what do you think of the driveline, is it strong, easy to lubricate, did the parts fit well? I’ve been thinking of building one
I see, thanks for explain.
Driveline is no need to lubricate, because it's belt drive system(at least in Model 7). Parts fit well, bearings, belts etc (although, that depends on how well calibrated is your printer). I think that system is strong enough. I built it with brushless motor and it's wild.
Only challenging parts were ball joints. I had problems to fit them in place, but I found a way.
Awesome thanks for the info! Which filaments did you use?
- PLA:
- Prusament Lipstick Red (body)
- Polyterra Charcoal Black (chassis)
- Polyterra Fossil grey (inside)
- Filament PM(Czech brand) graphite black (seats)
- Filament PM white
- Filament PM Pearl Red (cage)
- Fillamentum Clear (for lights)
- ASA:
- Prusament Lipstick Red (for few parts)
I wasn't expecting plain PLA! Are there any issues with warping due to heat from the motor?
It's recommended to use PC or ASA for motor parts. I used ASA
Coooooool!
