    In a new initiative from Carisma Scale Adventure, they will be offering a series of 3D printable Scale Accessories, specifically designed for our SCA1E based vehicles. Simply use the link to download the STL files required, print the files in your own chosen material, paint and weather as you see fit, then fit to the bodyshell using M2 hardware.

    The first files are to create a EXO Roofrack for the LYNX ORV. They consist of: – The Roof Rack itself, 6 EXO Arms, a Spare Tyre Mount and 4 Spotlights. Grab the files and a copy of these instructions here: LYNX ORV EXO ROOF RACK

    We recommend printing using a Raft, with Support, with a minimum 40% Infill Density, and at as high a resolution as possible. Both PLA and ABS have been used to print the parts with great success, and remember that once printed, the parts will need boding together, so use the correct type of adhesive for your chosen material. Lastly, this is a FREE to Download set of files, offered to all existing LYNX ORV owners under a Creative Commons Licence.  You can use the files  to reprint the object, modify the design, remix it with other designs, or make significant creative additions. All we ask is that you don’t use the files for commercial gain.

    We will be offering more files in the future, will the aim to build up an archive of Carisma Scale Accessories for all our vehicles.

    Remember to show us your prints and share your own STL files with us via our dedicated Facebook page: HERE

    Not my scene but massive thumbs up to Carisma for this.  No doubt individuals have done similar but for a manufacturer this is a real plus for me - letting end users customise / print at home rather than trying to charge ££ for stuff.

    Can't help thinking those with a 3d printer may take advantage of this and start selling said items for profit.

     

    I like that Carisma has thought 'out the box' on this though, :sweeeet: no better way to customises rig than making your own parts!!

    I've thought about buying a 3D printer myself, so many times, for 99quid, a few hours building it up and a few quid to get started with some PLA filament.

    You also have thingiverse, which is full of free RC related files.

    Can't help but agree that some greedy ones will try making money off it, but big thumbs up to Carisma!

    Classy move by carisma. I was looking at the ORV the other day, would look much better de-zombied i reckon.
