Really great project!!!!
I have bought Velleman K8200 3D printer recently and i am thinking about to print my 1st RC-Car. :-)

Anyhow i am a bit lost about which other material i will need beside the printable parts.
Is there complete bill of material availalbe for all the other things needed so that i can order/get everything with one order???
E.g. wich bearings, screws, washer, nuts, metal shaft, ....

Perfect would be also order reference to e.g. Conrad Shop.

Thanks
Christian

[Albert Roca]

That is a full bill of materials. If you have any more confusion load the STP file (link for all truggy files here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:42198) in your favorite CAD software.

I need help sourcing cvds listed to ship to the us.. I have the car printed but can't use any of it due to conrad.com refusing to ship to the us. I would be interested in buying from someone for reasonable price.. I tried to retro losing losa2960 but the ball on dog bone os too big.

[Nathan Miller]

I'm stuck at the same point. There are a million different driveshaft configurations for 1/10 cars and almost none of them have any dimensions, they're only listed as replacements for a certain model of car. Any US builders out there care to share where they got their driveshafts from?
