Tamiya 70112 1/24 mini Rough Rider

[CRC505 184]

 

The mini rough rider based on Tamiya 70112 is completed!

It took about two weeks to make in total.It took quite a while to model and create the printed parts.

The 3D printed parts cost me around £13 and the quality of the printed parts was pretty good, with a simple sanding and they were ready for painting.

The electronics cost about £3 and printing stickers and other miscellaneous items cost £5

I made the chassis in 3 different materials: acrylic FRP and 6061 aluminum alloy.

The finished effect was better than I imagined.I also customized a clear body,it looks quite good.

I retained the very iconic front suspension assembly, battery box, and gearbox from the Tamiya 70112.

This series allows people to understand the most basic structure，I also improved this kit on this basis.

It is a pleasure to have a mini rough rider that can fit in the palm of your hand.

Thanks! The clear body uses light-curing 3D printing transparent resin. I use OEM 3D printing on WENEXT. The price  for 3D printing this clear body is £9.White resin body only costs £2.

If you want I can sell a complete set of parts, which includes: light-cured resin body shell, driver figure, fiberglass chassis, SLS nylon parts, and additional 130 motors, motor gears, mini ESC, servos, plugs , screw hardware, stickers, masking paper, antennas, and wheels. You only need to prepare Tamiya's 70112, a micro receiver, and two 14500 lithium-ion batteries.It may be more expensive to send express delivery from my place to Garden City, Idaho. I checked that the shipping fee for EMS international express delivery within 6 days is nearly $55.
