Hot Laps: Getting a Custom RC Chassis Track-ready with Hands-on Racing

Location

James E. Gleason Hall (GLE/009) - Gordon Lower Atrium

Track day was a hit last year! Come visit my exhibit as I showcase a complete custom track-ready RC racing package. With 3D printing being very accessible, I can demonstrate every step of the design and manufacturing process in real time on a single table. Throughout the day, my printer will print chassis parts and even soft squishy tires. This features a track with demo cars for hands-on action, so buckle up for a unique racing experience!
