Tarmo 5 - OnRoad Remix

I recently saw a a youtube video on the tarmo 5.

Original Tarmo 5: https://www.reddit.com/r/EngineeringNS/comments/zvellk/tarmo5/


It is a RC - Car that is mostly 3D printed. I was inspired to make my own version seen below. I modified the original design with some key changes to prioritize on-road speed over off-road capability.



A few key changes I've made from the original:

  • Camber adjustment: change the original upper control arms to threaded rods with heim joints
  • better aerodynamics
  • introduce a flat floor to make use of "ground effect"
  • diffuser and front splitter (under development)
  • wheel deflectors to reduce airflow hitting the front and rear tires (under development)
  • Updated gear box
  • The original gearbox is designed for a out-runner motor
  • The updated gearbox is designed to be compatible with a 36mm in-runner motor
  • Updated steering mechanism (reduces possibility of binding)
  • before
  • after
