📏 Scale Conversion Guide – Adjusting This 1:10 Model to Other Scales
Need to resize your 1:10 models for different RC and miniature scales? Use this guide to scale up or down easily. Just multiply your original dimensions by the conversion factor below!
| Target Scale | Conversion Factor | Scale Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| 1:5 | 200% | 2,0 |
| 1:8 | 125% | 1,25 |
| 1:12 | 83,33% | 0,8333 |
| 1:14 | 71,43% | 0,7143 |
| 1:16 | 62,5% | 0,625 |
| 1:18 | 55,56% | 0,5556 |
| 1:24 | 41,67% | 0,4167 |
| 1:35 | 28,57% | 0,2857 |
| 1:48 | 20,83% | 0,2083 |
💡 How to Use This:
🔼 Scaling Up (e.g., 1:10 → 1:8): Multiply by 1.25
🔽 Scaling Down (e.g., 1:10 → 1:14): Multiply by 0.7143
Now you (and everyone else) can easily adjust any 1:10 model to different RC or miniature scales! 🚀
📏 Scaling Warning!
Rescaling a 3D model isn’t always simple—here’s what to keep in mind:
🔹 Thin Walls & Fragile Parts – Scaling down can weaken walls or erase details.
🔹 Holes & Fitment Issues – Pegs, joints, and screw holes may shrink or expand too much.
🔹 Moving Parts – Hinges and snap-fits might not function properly.
🔹 Printability – Smaller scales may need finer nozzles; larger ones may require stronger materials.
⚠ If I haven’t uploaded a profile for your scale, I haven’t tested it! Adjustments may be needed.
💡 Need a specific scale? If unsure, ask me! I might be able to tweak key details for better fit and function.
Happy printing! 😊
