I finished playing around with the model now and have updated the files on Thingiverse.
Files are now available with or without the support to mount the A132 chassis and either one piece or 2 piece body if you want to split the printing and join together afterwards. This was initially done as for this year the club wanted a 1/24 scale which is too big in one piece on my printer.
We tested a 1/24 model but in practice it is too wide for the club track in real world scale. We have now gone with 1/28 scale, and this with some printing on odd angles can be done in one piece.
Another change is in material being used. After ABD being too brittle, and Siraya Tech Blu Nylon being too sensitive to thinners in paints, we are going to try Elegoo Tough resin. After testing we have found it resistant so far to the thinners used in Tamiya paints, and also quite durable in the impact testing. Not as strong as the Nylon was, but much closedr to that in performance than ABS. Also closer in price to ABS it is easier on the pocket :)
Oh and the wing in a separate file as kinda looking at that as a consumeable....
