    If you ever decide to mix your channel&apos;s content up a bit, I would <i>totally</i> watch a silent 20-minute video of you just drawing with markers. That&apos;d be seriously relaxing and satisfying.

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWU7tfwpoAk&amp;t=313">5:13</a> Prop shafts are only round because they are made from bar or tube stock and turned down on a lathe. With 3D Printing we need to re learn design for manufacture. Just make it with a hexagonal cross section and it will print fine in one piece. Cool project. 👍I&apos;m working on a 1/18 scale RC chassis that I can fit into diecast models.

    I really appreciate the walk back on <b>EVERYTHING MUST BE 3D PRINTED</b> - the most accessible version of this one is where <b>most</b> things are 3d printed, but things that are easily &nbsp;sourced, or would be much better if not 3d printed, are not. Honestly one of those is the driveshaft - threaded rod is very easily available and cheap and strong. It seems kind of silly to have that be 3d printed, but it&apos;s nice to have the option.

    Please make a 3-hour video explaining the assembly process and your thought process while designing it. HELP THE NERDS OUT !!!! 🤞

    This is so impressive. You did all this solo. Insane. The best part. We as a community will use and improve this over the years. I can&apos;t wait to build this in a few months.

    I am going to remember that I subscribed to this channel before 100k. This channel is a hidden gem.

    I don&apos;t have a 3d printer or any plans to make this but brought your model just to give support. Great work and well deserved.
