RC Car
An RC car project with custom drivetrain assemblies.
I spent three months learning CAD, building and refining the car, then improving its gearing and strength. The drivetrain includes custom differentials, gearbox gearing and driveshafts.
Build story
Month 1 · Learning CAD
The first month was primarily learning CAD and iterating on the designs.
Month 2 · Assembly and tolerances
I assembled the car, fixed issues and learned about 3D printing and tolerances.
Month 3 · Gearing and strength
I optimized the gearbox for higher speed, fixed issues and strengthened the car.
