I wanted a 1/10 scale prerunner with long travel suspension so I decided to make it myself! Designed in OnShape, printed on an Ender 3. I have a bit more info on my thingiverse page. Any other RC hobbyists on here? https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6306854

    I was mostly wondering if PLA is a good material for these kind of things. But why not :)

    I didn’t know about filaments.ca. they seem like a nice company. Unfortunately I don’t live close bye.

      Time will tell! I’ve made another person’s design for an RC buggy out of PLA and it has held up fairly well for the most part. Worst case I can try PETG if I have issues.
