wow, what 3D printer you use? Resin? ABS?

are the wheels strong enough to sustain the weight & downforce?

you only print the body & wheels? not the chassis?

and where you get the decals?

so what chassis and transmitter/receiver you use? Tamiya ones not cheap.

those bodies are made to fit on standard chassis or need modifications?

the wheels are not consider heavy duty part?

the decals are just A4 paper? won't it look not so nice and you need to use glue to glue on? not thinking of decal printer or use decal papers?

I'm using 1:24 SUBOTECH CoCo chassis for my TAMIYA replica project. This one: https://www.supermotoxl.com/designs-a-creat...124-scale-truck 
Its cheap about USD$40 and build tough for bashing.  I bought lots of them and half of them are sponsored.

For the wheel at 1:24 scale overall weight still consider lightweight and durable enough for 3d printed wheels.  Lots of R/c community out there made lots of 3d printed wheels for bashing even at 1:10 or 1:8 scale.

As for decals, it takes skills to make it looks good as paper decals.  I used lots of them in all R/C models project, very cheap and resourcefull for customizer than buying.  Plus after adding the paper sticker you can put layer of lacquer or clear coating to make it waterproof.  Its an old R/C trick we used to learn back in the old days.

what suspension, motor etc do you use or the chassis comes with everything except body?

what about receiver & transmitter & controller?

the paper decal just use glue? but now with transparent sticker sheets easily available i think it's better than Paper. what printer you use?
