Metal wheels, brass rings & 1.3 inch tyres from DJCrawler. Light kit for front & rear from FMS C2029. Needed male to male mini JST connector cable. 3.75" driver figure. 3D printed wider arches.
What a nail-biting beginning this video has! Yes, your arches are completely undetectable. Even knowing that they're printed, I can't see the slightest hint of any lines; they look as though they're resin printed. You seem to have a magically low C of G, yet enjoy excellent ground clearance, too!
It was very much a cliff hanger for much of the crawl. There was a point towards the end (where the camera gets very close to catch it) where the Unimog really was about to go. Some stiffer foams would give the tyres more sidewall rigidity, but where's the fun in that! Thank you for commenting on the 3D arches. I'm trying to improve the quality of my finished prints by sanding out the lines more consistently. The metal wheels combined with the portal axles seem to give the ultimate scale crawler here (plus decent ESC). It just wants to climb everything. I could have stayed there all day trying out it's capabilities. That was just one short single shot. 😁
