It's very impressive! What hull are you using, or did you print that too?

And what is gong on with that gear box? Looks cool!

Very nice indeed, look forward to updates on progress.

Thank you!

Every part is printed except the swing arms and torsion bars (Tamyia)







The gear box is based on the same concept that the PDSGB or the Tamyia gear box for Leo 2. But I hope it will be silent...

Really impressive Have you already added surfacer in the first two pics, or did the printer produce that almost unblemished finish? It's a great printer if it did, and you're a great finisher if it didn't.

You really have to look up the French forum he linked to. So much more info and the online translator does a reasonable job for us non French speaking rc tank enthusiasts.

My 3d printer is an Anet A8 upgraded. It is a low cost machine... but abs is an easy to sand material

Indeed, and I think I'm right in saying ABS a far better plastic than PLA.. and probably easier to bond.
Nonetheless, your finishing is still exemplary

I have the same printer! Great project you have there.
