RC Design & Fabrication

About the RC Project

This project is a mixture of CNC-machined/3D printed custom parts, modifying & combining 1/8 & 1/5 scale components from different RC models to create a robust set-up.

Design is based off a 1/8 scale HPI Savage Flux.

By lengthening the TVP (Twin Vertical Plate) design a 1/5 scale version of the Savage Flux is created.


Dimensions:

Total length: 980mm (815mm without front/rear bumpers)

Total width: 470mm (wheel dependent)

Total height: 185mm top of TVP with wheel/tyre (height with body varies from 280mm)

Wheelbase: 560mm

Curb weight: 9.8kg

Batteries: 6s - 8s Li-po (22.2v - 33.6v max)

Motor: 780kv electric brushless motor (Castle Creations 2028)


Performance:

0-100 km/h (depends on gearing/Li-po set-up): 2.5-3.0 seconds

Top speed (depends on gearing/Li-po set-up): 80-100 km/h
