- This video was recorded early in 2023. Check my newest awesome snowblower project here! - • Snowcat V1 - First vid...
Both the truck and the blower are Powered by Zeee 2S 5200mah LiPo batteries (link below, referral program). The blower gets between 20-25 minutes, and the truck gets anywhere from 45-85 minutes.

This is a 3D printed model snowblower from plans by Spyker workshops, who designs and sells amazing kits for personal snow removal. The blower was printed and built by me, assembly took a little over 2 months, including finding a solid way to mount it.
There is about 5 inches of powder in the first video, this second part has between 3-4 inches and the snowblower works flawlessly. Currently mounted to custom Tamiya highlift F350 with over 20 lights and a Bluetooth-enabled speed controller. Two servos control the lifting and lowering of the blower, and one controls chute direction; all connected to my 6ch radio. The blower motor is currently a brushed 550 and has a separate receiver/esc on a dial switch to control auger speed.
If you're interested, check out the Spyker workshops website, where you can find plans for purchasing this blower, and others! While these were plans, they're now also back in stock as kits!

Are you making and to sell? I would definitely buy one
@@The68NovaMan The snowblower is a kit from "spyker workshops"; that is his personal model and design and he has plans, parts, and units available for sale (link in the description)! The truck is a Tamiya Highlift F350 and its very custom. Please reach out to benrattle29@gmail.com and we can discuss sales!
Awesome truck 👍
We just refuse to grow up!!😂 Need to chain up for the porch conditions... I won't lie if I jad this setup I'd be plowing a parking lot with it, you know people would stop just to watch it also 👀!!Love it awesome job man🤘
You guys should add a sand or salt dispenser in the pickup bed. Would get way more traction . A good lightning kit also would really set it off...
This is the pinnacle of an adult toy. Pretty awesome if you ask me. 😎
Pretty cool. I would have made a copy of the Mercedes Benz/AMG 6 wheeler pickup for extra traction. 😁

2:04. Everyone missed it even with this not so subtle referrence to it?
if my wife says shes bringing home a new adult toy for us, this is what im hoping it is.
@@ToatsMcGoats534 LOL For sure!!!
The idea of remote control snow removal is very appealing. This needs to be scaled up and marketed. 👍👍☃🌨
I agree! I'm sure with the emergence of EV's, we will see more "snow robots" doing driveways. Thanks for the comment!
No, you should brand them “Snobots”….
I would buy it. The user can stay inside and just look through a window.
I would pay money to see that clear a driveway while everybody else was using a real one. This is FANTASTIC.
Haha it’s not very manoeuvrable, I’ve tried my driveway but it’s a bit too much for it. The neighbours sure give it some weird looks 😂 Be sure to subscribe if this interests you, because my next project will be able to clear my driveway with ease!
I would put a little steering wheel on the roof with part of an ear of corn. And train a squirrel to ride in the back
done good luck cool stuff!!!! @@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies
Let's all take a moment to appreciate the amazing Battery Technology that enables this High drain application to go on for much more than 30 seconds.
Its impressive stuff! Brushless motors are much more efficient than brushed motors (which I was using all of last year). I have brushless motors installed this year, be sure to subscribe so you don't miss it!
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies Brushless motors, neodymium magnets, and improved battery tech all work to vastly increase run times.
@@basspig absolutely!
That has got to be the coolest thing I have seen in a long time.
All it needs now is a salt spreader on the tailgate, a bed full of salt. And a “for hire” sign! This is brilliant! 😃
Haha maybe i'll design a sticker like that and put it on the truck when all my neighbors stop and stare for miniute's on end!
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies that would be pretty cool. 😁
Whoever made this is my hero!
This is the coolest thing I have seen in at least 5 years. Congrats to whoever built that, I could have endless fun.
Thanks! The truck is a custom build by me based on a Tamiya Highlift F350. The snowblower was designed by Spyker Workshops; available as kits or 3d print plans!
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbieswhere can I get the print plans? Thanks
This is what I call work while paying
@@joe0001I found it with a Google search. It's not cheap. Over $1000 to get everything, by the looks of it. Still cool though.
I lived in upstate NY as a kid, guarantee, if I had this, my dad would have wanted to clear the drive way himself 😅
That's got to be the coolest way to remove snow that I've ever seen! Love it!
It really is! When it works and doesn't get stuck, it's hard to find something more fun and satisfying!
I would sit there and do this shit every chance I get cause it looks so much fun lol
Same here! Finally gives me a reason to ENJOY seeing it snow!
This proves that laziness is the mother of invention! Good job!
You spelled ingenuity wrong.
I gotta say this is pretty awesome!! "Ok baby, I'm gonna head outside and clear off the front porch and the side walk"... grabs a beer, the RC truck... and heads outside for some fun!
A whole new level ......
So Cool! I'm impressed,...Just like the big boys. Fun, fun, fun. Yay!
That's cool you don't have to go out side and freeze
When I was troubleshooting, I was outside constantly lol... Later in the year it did much better. My next project will be even better, consider subscribing so you don't miss it!
That thing actually does and pretty good job considering how deep the snow is per scale of the truck and snow blower!
It sure does! Impressed me for sure. Just a simple brushed motor; I'll be upgrading for this winter, if you're interested, consider subscribing to see how much more powerful my next project will be!
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbiesdo you sell these projects ?
I used to have a plow blade on my axial crawler truck but this is way cooler ,,,great job man , makes me want to get back into rc trucks ....
Love to hear it, you totally should! There's so many inexpensive budget trucks available. Add a little bit of PVC pipe and you'll have a winter of fun! I have uploaded a few videos with my crawler and a homemade plow using DJI fpv to drive it from inside! Here's the link to my whole playlist if you're interested! - th-cam.com/play/PLpFBE453PoIyP_Y2WO2-jOtZS19jzSbVi.html
This is absolutely impressive.
We don't even have snow now.. But I need this in my life 😍
Now that's the way to clear your driveway...Awesome!!!
I can see having a fleet of 5 to 10 of these to clear the drive throughout the night/day to keep it clear. YES PLEASE! SOLD!
I've already imagined that haha, something bigger would be more practical; Subscribe so you don't miss my larger future projects I have planned!
yea must work on powder only ?@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies robot mower with snowblower attachment next?
Great Job!
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen.
You definitely need to make another video of this with working windshield wipers . 👍
Haha I agree! I might have windshield wipers by next winter, but they'll appear on my next project first. This one only needs it to help keep the weight of the extra snow off the front end, as the windows aren't clear to begin with
That's so cool! I Love it!
Now that's cool.😂👍
The window is covered in snow, so how does he see what he's doing?😊 That is so sophisticated and intelligently built! Huh, maybe you're on to something. A snow blowing Rumba, of sorts? Very cool!😎
Next project: Functional windshield wipers!
One can clear there sidewalks without leaving the warmth of the house . I think he's onto something
Its a lot of fun when it works!
I am so incredibly impressed I can’t even put my thoughts into words. Beautiful job and it works amazingly well too. 👍🏻
Thank you! It's a lot of fun in light snow!
1:37 U.......are a "GENIUS "!!!!!:)!!!!!....."AMMMMMMZZZING".... job....WOW.....
&..... that's deep snow...&... it's not even bogging down....ThankU
BIGGEST SMILE ON MY FACE WHOLE VIDEO. NEED ONE. NOW!
Thanks, glad to hear you enjoyed it!! Check the link here - spyker-workshop.dpdcart.com/product/102652 The snowblower is not my own design, rather it is a kit with files that you have to print yourself and assemble with the recommended hardware; You can always scale the parts up or modify them for your own needs! He does have a new design out now, here is the link to that blower. It is significantly better, more refined, and more powerful. Check it out here! - spykerworkshop.com/product-category/3d-printed-snowblower/ Also, be sure to like and subscribe if you want to see more content like this!
This right here.... Legit the Coolest thing I've seen all year!
Nice build! I always wanted to install a Spyker blower on my F350 as well! Works really well!
Go for it! Took me about a month of solid work to get it mounted. Only issue is rear traction; it’s so light that traction and turning is a huge issue. Tracks help (check out my other videos for this thing on 3D printed snow tracks), but I’ve got something way better for this season! Thanks for the comment!
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies
I’ll check out your other videos! I can imagine weight distribution being an issue. You can always add weights to the rear or weighted wheels. From my experience tire chains look cool and help a bit as well! Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
@@TwinEnginesRC Thanks! I have linked a playlist in the pinned comment. I've tried all the options, the batteries are already under the bed, and the tires have spikes in them. The 3d printed tracks help, which I've upgraded for this year! Might look into LW PLA for the blower material in another year.
@@RattlesnakeRCandHobbies
Weighted wheels would help
So where can i get one?
That's awesome!
I bet you could do even better with some lower gearing and more traction.
The gearing is already SUPER low, I have three speeds available but have locked it in a medium gear. I have helped the traction issues with some 3D printed tracks for it; here's a video of the first test - th-cam.com/video/3Xi8P1bkoiY/w-d-xo.html. Be sure to subscribe, there will be another track test video out in a few days!
That is awesome! Cheers.
Fantastic!!
This is very funny ! This little truck is so cute ! Good Christmas gift for a younger person or even an adult .
Haha I agree, it would be quite the engineering project for anyone younger than 10, but an awesome project nonetheless!
Put on some chains and some weight in the bed.
Its already got studded tires, and all the batteries are in the rear; The 3d printed tracks help though! Be sure to check out my other videos, or subscribe so you see them in action in a few days!
This is absolutely amazing!
Very well done!
Awesome dude
Thats awesome!!
Genius!!!
Keep on trucking!
Thanks for sharing,really nice. BIG FUN !
This is awesome!!
Nice job
that is so awesome !!!
Great idea. Just needs some drone like cameras so you can sit inside.
I agree! Subscribe if this interests you, because my next project may use what you've commented! I already have used FPV for a snowplow, check out this playlist if you're interested! th-cam.com/video/9bob-CFLbvo/w-d-xo.html
All I can say, is genius !
That is absolutely awesome!
This is so cute!😁
So great! Love it!👍💯
I am ear to ear smiles right now, that is the coolest. nice work
Very cool!👌
Cool video! I'm going to check out your other videos too.
this so cool!
So cool… very enjoyable to watch…
That is freaking awesome thanks for sharing
From someone who has to take care of a big property. This is my dream😊 I've thought about thus for years now. Being able to take care of walkways from the comfort of my home. And not have to go outside in poor conditions. 👍
Haha my thoughts exactly! Not quite as good as I had hoped, but works pretty well. Be sure to subscribe if this interests you, you'll love my next project that'll be out in a few months!

Ever since I saw it a few years back, I knew I had to make one! I certainly did not expect this to blow up like it did! The best part is that yes, I can do it from inside! Be sure to subscribe if this interests you, my next project will be even more wild!
Totally impressed!
thats too cool fun and working at the same time
I love it man!!!!!
This is so nice, when batteries get better we can use this to make our own paths in the snow.
this is soo cool!
You definitely know you are living in a first world country when there is a 4x4 RC truck with a working snowblower clearing off snow on a miniature driveway!!!
Well done!!!!
Haha very true!
Wow! That's really awesome. Keep up the great work!
Nice love it
Very cool
Nice work 😀
very nice!
I like it!
well thats just adorable
The coolest rc car ever
That is pretty cool
Very cool!
And a lot of fun too!
That's impressive my man, great job!
Shared this with my son. He'll love it@!
This makes me want a house with its own yard. On the other hand, I could go and help in the neighbors' yards.
Man, I'd actually clear the snow off my walkway if I had one of these.
Pretty cool. too bad that isn't really printed. I was a printer for 50 years, and that is not printed.
I agree. It is designed and manufactured using a “3D printer”. Not much of a printer in the conventional sense, more like “3D manufactured”. But, that’s what it’s called 😂
3d printers have not been around for 50 years. What are you smoking?
@@Stepside906 Not too sure what he meant by that lol
You smoke crack?
Printing technician 25 years. That's not printed I say either 😂
THATS AWESOME! SOOO COOL
Moves snow with ease 👍👍👍 whatever you’ve done nice job…
So cool
I love it..!!!
super cool
Ok that's just over the top in lazy ingenuity! Great job!
I prefer to call it creative innovation, but thank you haha
I bet every kid wished they had that in the 80's
Awesome.
I can't afford a new truck but this lil guy fits my budget!
That is so cool. I could not stop watching lol
It may take 5 times longer, but it's 100 times more fun!
And warmer you can control it from inside can’t do that with a real one hahaha
I'm speechless! My jaw dropped even further @6:50 when I saw the blower being lifted off the ground. Superb work!
Haha thank you! It doesn’t lift high but it’s just so moving the truck is a bit easier. Works better when I have my 3D printed snow tracks on it though, be sure to check it out if you’re interested! If you find this cool, be sure to subscribe, I have even cooler projects planned for this winter!
this is beyond cool.
One massive kid enjoying himself
Mr. Plow approves
This is amazing! Love it!
This is a magnificent RC TRUCK❤
That's awesome! It would be they only way to keep me out in the cold.
Tire chains and sand bags in the back. I need one of these.
That thing works amassing great job man !!!!
Still working on its function, but I appreciate it! If this interests you, consider subscribing - More cool projects on the way!
