Can’ really understand how to attach the wing to the “Shock Tower New.stl”, is it just compatible with the old shock tower?
Also, someone with good tips on how to properly attach the battery, ESC and receiver to the car?
@David_Baron There is a part that connects the wing to the shock tower. It is call ‘Wing Holder’ and there is a left and right hand version of these.
As for connecting the esc, battery and receiver, it is not as complicated as it first seems. It depends a little on your specific hardware, but the basic idea is battery connects to the ESC, and the ESC connects to the motor. The receiver connects to the ESC and may or may not need a separate connection for power. Often times the ESC will power the receiver.
Hope that helps.
Yeah, i know about the wing holders, they are printed, but don’t understand how to attach them to the shock tower.
On the “old shock towers” they fit (http://i.imgur.com/BffQcZP.png) but the wing holders don’t fit beside the built in spacer on the new shock towers (http://i.imgur.com/WzIx6hZ.jpg).
It would be possible to attach the wing holders (if you swap left and right http://i.imgur.com/jnNnfMr.jpg) to the same place you attach the shocks, but not both shocks and wing holders at the same time. Maybe with the experimental printed shocks it’s possible to jam the shocks between the shock tower and the wing holder, not sure.
And yea, think I know how to connect the parts, was more thinking about how you attach them to the chassis. Glue?
Could just glue the receiver holder and the battery holder to the car. Same with the ECS, and if i need to swapp the ECS later, you could just print another roof part for the new one.
@David_Baron sorry about the confusion, the new shocktower is intended for another wing mount. Unfortunately i got slammed with work in the middle of the process so I have not had time to finish the thing. Sorry.
@David_Baron There is a battery holder. I thought I had uploaded it but I’ll check again. I will upload it as soon as I’m at a computer again. Also, I have mounted the ESC and reciever with tape to the top deck. I think @Emile_Wim had designed a housing for the electronics, check out his pictures.
thx @Daniel_Noree I’ll figure something out for the wing, no problem. And I have downloaded the batt holder, found it on thingiverse
Could someone please share links to the shock tower and wing STL files, have been searching for awhile now with no luck
