This is a remix of a 3D printed project of a toy car based of store bought parts. It is fully functional and my version runs perfectly. With that said, this 3D Printed toy may or may not work for you, your printer or bought parts may vary. This project was made because it is fun and challenging and I had an extra RC car laying around.

This OpenRC F1 car - Mini version is based of the one and only, Daniel Norée, version of the OpenRC F1 car - 1:10 RC (make one!)http://danielnoree.com/
Ment to be a complementary version to the already awesome original.
All this became easy base of two things, Daniel created a open project with an excellent design!
And Fusion 360 made the editing of existing data easy.
The mission was to create a smaller and more portable version to race at the office. The scale is 0.55 of the original one if 1:10. (The 0.55 is because it was the only way to fit the steering servo)
Unfortunately, I could not scale down all parts such as gears, the original steering and some other due to it became to brittle.
So I used a store bought car and butchered it for parts. The blue dirt truck is the one I bought but what my research indicates, this one is built with all the same parts but with different tiers and body. (the tiers of the drift car would fit the OpenRC F1 much better)

The idea was to have a base/car that anyone could buy anywhere.
You could search for, RC Car Drift Car 1/28 on eBay to find it.
