This assembly video goes hand in hand with the written instructions included with the files. In an effort to keep the video quick paced some steps may have been missed or not explained perfectly clear. Please reference the instructions to be sure nothing is missed.
The SkeeRide 2 is a complete new design.
Taking from the knowledge gained from the
SkeeRide and all of the community feedback,
the SkeeRide 2 has been strengthened and
improved in all aspects of the design. You can
expect better durability, smoother suspension,
and greater performance. Due to these
changes the build will require more parts and
may be considered a more complex build in
comparison to the original SkeeRide.
Really looking forward to building this one, the changes and attention to detail are amazing. Thank you!
Just got them, can't wait to get the Polar one done now so I can start this one, thanks again for all the hard work you put into making these
Thank you.
Fantastic! Thanks for all the work that goes into making Skeeride so great.
Thanks
Indeed this guy made a tremendous work lot of hours i can imagine :)
Thanks! Awesome job on everything, not only a very detailed building instruction, but also build videos! So amazing! Still printing and waiting on parts!
Thank you!
You really stepped up your game with this
Thank you!
Where do I get the stickers
@huntercarpenter6729 most people cut them out of vinyl.
Looks like I have to build another one:) Printing the old version as we speak. Thank you for making this possible for us to enjoy. The V2 looks really nice in all black!
Thank you!
Absolutely great video. I really liked how you pre-adjusted the vise grips to keep from applying to much pressure and get exact fit in nut inserts. 💯 % smart. I miss this diy assembly in RC. I enjoyed building more than actual operation and I feel the owner has more of an appreciation and understanding for the model. Its sad everything is rtr nowadays but its more about sales and fairness to the mechanically incompetent. Again great video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks.
Pretty nice. What scale is that? It looks bigger than 1/10. Can it be printed on a flashforge 5M Pro?
Thanks. It’s approximately 1/6th scale. Print area of 220x220 required.
This should have way more views and likes awsome work Buddy looks insane
Thank you!
Really like it man just wondering if you supply your own screws or if you have a screw kit on your site
Thanks. I’m working on a screw kit but it’s probably not ready till the snow is gone 😕 you can buy the screw assortments listed in the instructions though and should have all you need.
What motor & Esc Setup did you go with?
Do the shocks have internal springs? And what would be a good weight oil to put in them?
This is an awesome build, and I'm going to be printing the parts this summer.
Yes, internal springs. I don’t run oil in mine but a lot of people do. Best to ask on the discord server for what weight is best. It’s pretty slow on there now that snow is gone, but someone may chime in.
Wow, I guess I didn't really realize how big this was until I seen your hand buy the front A arms and the track skids. Very cool. What printer do you use and bed size? I don't have one yet but looking at a Creality 3 V2 neo .
Yes 220x220 bed size so yes the neo would be a good option
Thanks
Cannot wait for mine to be done printing so i can assemble it
That's a neat G5, really easy looking assembly. That track angle on the front looks a bit sharp though, but judging by the previous video it seems to work in pow👍
You can manipulate it same as a real sled with the limit strap. It makes a huge difference
@@jakepeterson3379 Yes I'm familiar with that trick👍 Also the angle can be modified with the used shock's length, shorter shock and smaller angle -> No need for limiter strap
@@sledmaker ya but a limiter strap is more scale and you make it adjustable for wheelies lol.
@@jakepeterson3379 Yeah ik. I put a stiff o-ring on the front swing, that seems to hold it well enough on soft and allows more travel when jumping and wheeling. Will have to test a bit more to see if it works properly or not. Also doesn't sag and snap or catch the track when it gets loose on landings
@@sledmaker O ring is a good idea. 👍
is there a assembly video for the Polaris matrix too?
No, the assembly is very similar so I have not made a video. It does include specific written instructions though.
i love the the new updates cant wate to build it!!
Thanks
are there amazon links for everything like the last stl on colts? i’m really interested in building one of the two. feeling like this is the better option lol
Yes, there are links in the instructions that are included with the files.
How big of a batter can you run in this it says 2/6s but I’m not sure what will fit like how big is the box size I have a Traxxas 3s 4000 and 5000mah battery’s but I’m nut sure if I will have to buy a new smaller one
I run 3s 1500 with plenty of room to spare. Not sure exactly the measurement of the area. Plenty of people on discord could tell you what they are getting to fit.
A downside to a big battery is it gets top heavy and tips more easily.
Have you thought about making the opening on the skid that holds the shock a little bigger. I bought the same shocks in the sheet buy had to scrap away a lot to get it to fit between the mount. I'll post pics in discord to what I'm talking about.
Hmmm, it could be made bigger. Mine slide right in without issue… possibly a calibration issue…
@BuildItBetter3D that's the only part I've ever had issues with and I tried 3 different printers. It not a huge deal I can edit the file I have but if anyone else ever tries to make one and can't it would be a pain.
Wow that’s sick awsome job on creating nasty rc sled 🤘🏼
Thanks!
Just snagged an elegoo neptune 4 pro,I don’t know shit about 3D printing lol but will the printer being klipper effect the files at all? Or should I still be able to match print settings and good to go?
Klipper won’t hurt anything. You may need to tune your settings some. I would try some small parts to begin with to be sure your settings are dialed in.
@@BuildItBetter3D awesome!! Appreciate the response! Bought the skeeride 2 files yesterday and got Cura set up with my machine parameters with structural/non structural profiles, sliced and tested looks perfect now I just gotta verify and tune my settings and start laying out parts! Lol, It prints 250mm/s and I got rapid + PLA so I’m curious to see how fast it prints all said and done and how it turns out at those speeds, I’ll probably try 200 ish at first
Awesome! Thanks for the support. Good luck on the build, I hope you enjoy it.
@@BuildItBetter3D going great so far 😎 all frame parts are done, just track left and I’ll have a roller! … ski…er? Track-er?……roller! Lol.
And then body panels and accessories next!
ended up splitting up the track by A B and C and doing 13 of each kind at a time, printing 13 of A right now 👍🏻 I had a little trouble at first with black filament vs the white but I just had to use raft (like I had to with a lot of the white parts too) and go down 10 degrees on the head, 2 degrees on the bed and slow down my initial layer 👍🏻 the models are awesome!
Awesome! Glad to hear it 😁
Bonjour j’aimerais savoir qu’elle électronique je devrais installer dans mon rc ?
There are recommendations included in the instructions. You can also ask on the discord server. Most standard 1/10 or 1/8th scale electronics will work. You’ll want a lower kv motor 1800-2200kv.
what is the total length
About 28 inches.
What is the digital read put actually for? I did buy them I'm almost finished with the build but I'm just curious.
It’s mostly for looks, that’s where a big display is on the real sled. It gives you battery voltage though, so it’s nice to look at and know when your battery is getting low.
@@BuildItBetter3D so do you wire it into the battery plug on the esc?
I think that’s where I wired mine. It’s should come with a little paper that shows how to wire it.
It’s about time someone’s not hogging the files for a good build
Thanks. Enjoy! 😃
Just finished mine... Waiting for snow... I'm a bit baffled by the amount of bump steer!
There should be little to no bump steer. The original SkeeRide had a bump steer issue, but that was corrected with the SR2.
@@BuildItBetter3D I sent you a message with a short clip on Facebook!
Great detail thanks for the video!
Do you sell a hardware KIT of some sort? Like nuts and bolts and so on
Here’s a build kit. rcprinter.com/products/skeeride-2-build-kits
@@BuildItBetter3DIs the set pre cut/exact size needed? I saw on some built video they had to cut some screws/rods
I’m not sure, I don’t make or sell the kit.
how long will take to print all of the needed components for the build
With one printer it takes 2ish weeks.
do we have to cut down the nails or it fit no cutting at all?
2 inch needs no cutting at all.
@@BuildItBetter3D thanks!!
This is sick! Love it
Thanks.
Hi how can I get one like this one I’m Charlie or how can I reach you
Link to the files is in the description. Link to the discord group is in the description of the files.
I buy it right now!:)
Hi can i use another lengt of belt because i cant find the 228 mm on amazon
There is a calculator in the faq section on the discord server that you can use to choose different length belt’s depending on gear size. So if you change the size of the gears, then yes, you can change the length of the belt.
@@BuildItBetter3D thanks a lot !!
i know it says 1/5 scale so its bigger than the original skeeride? will it fit on a ender 3 pro prints?
Yes, fits ender 3
@@BuildItBetter3D thank you so much! And I appreciate you always responding, will you tell us with the gray color is inside the discord or can you mention it here which one you bought?
All the filament colors I used are in the faq section on discord. Here’s the grey though. amzn.to/3IQ54nN
@@BuildItBetter3D thank you! you are literally the best!
What do you recommend pla track or tpu?
I run pla for my track.
@@BuildItBetter3D do they snap often?
I haven’t snapped any yet, but I’ve only run in deep snow.
do you have a count for the track how many pieces of each making a 154
Yes, it’s in the instructions.
@@BuildItBetter3D thank you I saw said 34-35 pieces but was trying to figure how many of each. But thank you for replying!
Half will be the double paddle and 1/4 single paddle skinny and 1/4 single paddle wide. I like to print a couple extra of each.
@@BuildItBetter3D thank you so much!
What 3D printer do you use?
I use the ender 5 plus, but it can be printed on 220x220 bed.
You are amazing thank you so much!!
Thanks
Is there any part list anywhere of the non-printed parts?
Yes, it’s included with the files. It’s also pinned in the SkeeRide discord server in the sr2-pictures section.
@@BuildItBetter3D cant find any discord server can you send link?
discord.gg/TpMGEksu
Where could I purchase this kit?
Link in the description to the digital files to print your own and link to list of people that’ll print one for you.
Where can I have the stickers printed?
I think there are lots of places that will do it for you, but I haven’t done it that way. I cut mine out with a silhouette cutter.
You should have made housings in the tunnel for bearings and used a steel driveshaft. The plastic shaft and no bearings doesn’t thrill me.
It does use bearings. The plastic shaft rarely fails, but there is also a jig included to make a metal shaft.
@@BuildItBetter3D ok good to know I was getting worried I’m almost done printing it and it looked like there were no bearings but they must sit inside the covers not in the tunnel. I haven’t printed the cover or the pulley tensioning system. Thanks!
how did you print the stickers?
They’re cut from vinyl.
@@BuildItBetter3D thank you! also where did you wire up the mini voltmeter to?
I connected mine into my battery plug so it shows battery voltage.
Does it come with the motor?
I only sell digital files, no physical parts. You can check the authorized seller list for someone to build you one. Link in description.
Awesome!!
Do u have list of all the hardware needed?
Yes, detailed list and instructions are included with the files.
@@BuildItBetter3D awesome! Will purchase soon
Cool. Thanks.
Time to start moding again😉
are they available to buy as a kit?
No, not yet. Working on a deal that should make it possible.
@@BuildItBetter3D yes i wanna be able to buy it as a kit as i do not own a printer myself. im super bummed. i would easily pay 450-650 for this in a built roller form.
Getting closer to this being available. Join the discord server for quicker updates. That’s also where you’ll be able to contact people when they start selling them. discord.gg/9m7ad5ZA
Just had someone get ready to start selling them. His info is in this document. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RXSdDrZoAjLp8ws2RUS7CDb4d1NoUWAIu6UDZ1WH-EU/edit
@@BuildItBetter3D are you gonna get to a point were the parts are properly manufactured? from molds and whatnot? rather then 3d printing? curious as i dont really think this would hold up to the kind of abuse i would wanna put it through.
All nice till I brake something and have to take apart completely to much trouble I find
No one is forcing you to build one. It’s the same with any hobby rc you’d buy.
@@BuildItBetter3D IT looks complexe alot of bolts and stuff that's all but the performance and play time is epic
@@stevelamothe dumb comment.
Where do i buy the files?
Link in description
do i ned a 3d printer
There are authorized sellers that can print the parts for you. I do recommend having access to a printer at least for replacement parts. Link to sellers and their contact information is in the description.
What are the dimensions of the bigger prints? The tunnel looks pretty big. Afraid that will not fit on my printer. same with the skid rail but that I see is available in a multi part print too.
There are cut versions of all the big pieces to fit 220x220 print area, possibly smaller but I haven’t tested that. Everything can be printed without the split pieces on 350x350.
