OpenRC F1 2019 Reinforced front wing
Description
This is a remix I made of the Front wing from the OpenRC 2019 Update I got from here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1193309 I first printed the original a couple of times but it was a bit flimsy and would break after each head on crashes. I made this modified version to strengthen the areas that would break and then went out for some crash tests. This version was able to resist numerous hard crashes suffering only minor chips. Some of the harder crashes even ended up damaging the nose rather than the front wing so I plan on reinforcing the nose next. After many attempts I did manage to break it, but only after I went over a speed bump at full speed and the car went rolling sideways and broke everything (rear axle mount, the lid, the rear wing, the rain light diffuser, shark fin, front wing,...). UPDATE 30/04/2019: I've added two things you might like: - Front_Wing_MODIFIED_Extra.stl where I've filled in the holes in the arches in an attempt to reinforce to section around the hole for the m3 bolt which seems to be the new weakpoint. -Front_Wing_MODIFIED_Minimum.stl where I've doubled the thickness of the very front but left out the arches. This way you can still make it more crash resistant all whilst preserving the appearance.
