Where model making, 3D printing, and radio controls combine!

At Make It RC we design, build, customize, review, and race radio controlled vehicles! Along the way, we create videos with the goal of entertaining, informing, and inspiring other hobbyists.

Our main focus is custom built, 3D printed, highly realistic, radio controlled models. We like to transform smaller scale plastic model car kits into fully functioning RC vehicles. From the initial design to the first test drive, follow us on our journey, and learn how you can build similar cars yourself!

Been busy editing the next video this evening. I think it's going to be a good one! Here's a nice shot of the Challenger. If I recall correctly, this was one of my first RC projects utilizing the wheels and tires included in the kit. Makes for a great life-like look. 👍

How about a work truck Wednesday post. Got to clean up all those cinder blocks after what happened this weekend. 😆

A little junk yard, parts bin brushless motor with gear reduction set up. As I've talked about before, I had trouble finding a good gear reduction setup for these higher speed brushless motors. I want the motor to be mounted longitudinal in front, under the hood, which is not a common arrangement for most micro drift and crawler chassis'. This setup isn't super compact, but not bad for being a test. Good way to reuse a dead N20 motor. 🔧

Following up yesterday's post with the more modern equivalent. Well, relatively modern at this point. Nice shot of the 2010 GT500. 📸

A couple nice shots of the GT350 as the sun sets. I'm currently wrapping up a new video which will be going up on the channel soon, covering all the electronics I like to use for these plastic model to RC conversions. Stay tuned. 👍
