Summary

I printed the original X-wing car for my 3yo nephew and it took him all of about a day to break it, which at least shows he was playing with it :). It broke off one of the wings where the wheel was too near an edge.

So I took the SCAD file and made some modifications:

  • Shrunk the wheel holes (they were way too big).

  • Tidied the code ... a lot. This was clearly a modified version of another piece of code so I stripped out the bits that weren't needed and re-wrote the code in a way that (to my view) is easier to follow and tried to comment it completely.

  • Flipped the wings over. X-wings have forward swept wings for some reason.

  • Split the model in 2 and added a joining piece (so it can still be printed without support).

  • Made a SCAD for the guns and engines (my design) and wheels and R2D2 (original design)

So here I present my derivative ...
