If you have one in your area, check out Sayal Electronics

Correct, don't use premium fuel unless your engine requires it.

Time will tell! I've made another person's design for an RC buggy out of PLA and it has held up fairly well for the most part. Worst case I can try PETG if I have issues.

The one that appears to be connected at the front has another beam that goes down to the other wheel knuckle. The one at the front is connected to the servo for the steering input. Hope that helps! Look up "dual swingset steering" for more information.

Econofil PLA from filaments.ca

I love this line of filament, never had any problems with it. Used this colour just to use it up on my first test print, it's not my favourite colour. Looks too much like dry pasta.

I just think they're neat haha

I have a 1996 F150 2WD which has beams and they've always kinda fascinated me as a solution so I wanted to dive into the design considerations.

It can be a little tricky at first figuring out how everything connects but once you figure it out it's fun!

Okay so flying kites is a very good time. Two line sport kites can be reasonably cheap and easy to learn. You can transition into larger power kites that are a total blast and quite a workout to control. I've never done it but you can move up to kiteboarding or similar sports as well.
