[RC-trix]

I've recently bought a second hand 22-despite people warning me about it being hard to set up in mid-motor configuration.
What I did notice was that the motor was a lot more forward than the norm, which might explain the aformentioned.

So I figured it might be worth messing about a bit with the weight-distribution.
Hence the idea to make a more compact gear-box as a means of achieving this, without having to resort to a radical redesign of the entire car.

The design :



The motor is +/- 15mm more rearward; as an unfortunate side-effect, it’s also +/-8mm higher,
so my idea might actually have an adverse effect on handling.

So far, I’ve got it 3d-printed, (printed with heated filament wire ) Helas the quality of the print is so poor it barely allows me to check my dimensions ….


I’ve requested prices to get a more decent print, but I think it’s going to cost me an arm and a leg..

If anybody’s got any comments on the idea itself or how to get a decent quality print, I’ll be glad to listen
