Description
So I can't help noticing someone hasn't already made a 3D printed version of DHS suspension for MS chassis….I mean people been doing these mods for over 20 years, but mostly Tamiya spec mods that are both time and money consuming to make.
Thus, I decided to make this model, an affordable option for someone willing to convert their ms chassis mini4wd to DHS suspension system. The goal was to minimize the handcraft part, so that anyone with tools commonly found in their garage could do it. In the future I may also add roller stands, but currently my SW is expired….
Before you print:
1. some of the tamiya cawls might not work with this car. However, soft cawls should be easier to work with to fit, i.e. soft Festa or Rakiri body.
2. all parts printed without support.
3. most of the part lists are either from mini-z or mini4wd. if you happen to be in both hobbies, you might already have all the stuff needed.
