About this 3D model

To complete the work with this MTC (Monster Truck, Crawler) Chassis I had to design some rigid axles, a multilink suspension system and a compatible universal shaft. With these new parts I think you can build a pure Crawler or a Scale RC.I finally activated my PayPal account, so please, feel free to tip me if you want to help :) The parts in this publication will let you build a car with a wheelbase from 290 to 330 mm. Maybe 270 mm wheelbase or 280 can be achieved with a sourced universal shaft transmission. The same way you will be able to choose between four different axle widths using the same sourced parts than in previous MyRCCar chassis publications. A build with rigid axles will use less sourced parts than a independent suspension one. The steering system is much simpler; you won't need bearings for it. The axles assembly is also simpler but there is a little extra hand work while assembling the links. There are no oficial videos from this Rigid Axles Version by now. Please, subscribe to my Youtube Channel to be updated with the latest videos! Characteristics and Options The main chassis One of the best things is the main chassis remain the same, compared to the independent suspension version, so you can convert one or both of the axles to a rigid axle version! The Side bars, the central platform, the gearbox or the top covers are used the same. The front platform is also re-used in other position and the rear one is not necessary. The Axles As you can see there are 3 different center parts for the axles. This will give you 3 different widths for your axles... You just have to choose. But there is also a wider one using the long axle and the "long C-Hubs" or "long rear fixed blocks". You can use 4 different CVDs with the long axle plus 2 more with the long c-hubs You can use 2 different CVD combinations with the medium axle You can use 2 different CVDs with the small axle The Steering The same sourced parts are used for this build, so I have designed different c-hubs, steering blocks, rear fixed blocks and steering plates to use them in this axles. There are 2 different C-Hubs, the long one is only for HSP 108015 and HSP 188015 There are 4 different Steering Blocks, the same types than in all MyRCCar publications There are 6 different Rear Fixed Blocks, 2 of them longer for HSP 108015 and HSP 188015 There are 4 different steering plates or "bars", one for each axle width. XL, L, M and S The links These links are Print in Place ball joint articulated. I use to print with -0.02 horizontal expansion to get the correct results, this time i printed them with -0.03 to be sure i could unlock them. I have created some fixed length links and other parts to build variable length links. This links have to adapt to the chosen wheelbase, from 145mm PWB to 165mm PWB. But also they have to adapt to the different axle types, the long, the medium and the short one. There are also 2 possibilities to assemble the bottom links in the long axle; you can mount them in the outer holders of the axle or the inner ones. But resuming, using the variable length ones, which are available in 2 lengths and for M3 or M4 screws, you will be able to have any of the needed measures. Use the drawings to choose the right ones for your wheelbase and axle width from the fixed length ones or print 12 adjustable long heads for M3 or M4 as you prefer, and 4 adjustable short heads. Use M3x50 or M4x50 for the long ones and M3x40 or M4x40 for the short ones. The Universal Shafts If you have the typical sourced parts for the MyRCCar projects, as 02024 with pinion and universal 1/10 vase for the F/R diffs, and a 1/8 center diff as the Trooper or the SST ones, then you can use this transmission. The Locked 3D Printed Differentials If you want to go "extra-cheap", you can't wait for your sourced parts to come or if you want a full-locked transmission system then you can print a center differential, Mod1 46T, and also a F/R diff. compatible with HSP 02024. That means you could replace all the diffs with 3d printed ones. More info about sourced parts, prices, printing tips and more! Remember I have done all MyRCCar projects around the same sourced parts, 1/10 typical ones. Please, take a look to my previous publications, MyRCCar OBTS Chassis and MyRCCar MTC Independent Suspension Version I recommend you to take a look to them to have a better global view about what can you do with this projects. You will also find at the end of those publications a lot of printing tips which are of course also valid for this Rigid Axles Version. Main Chassis Assembly Printing first parts to start This time I'm going to list the parts and the number of them you need to print. If you have to choose between versions of a part you will find an "*" in that part. Remember that every time you have to print a part various times is better to print first just one, test it and then print the clones. I'll try to reflect the order I would use to print them and assemble them, but
