3D Printable King Kong Ride Model H0 scale

Bring wild jungle thrills to your miniature fairground with this 3D printable King Kong ride, inspired by the real-life attraction Konga! Featuring swinging motion, spinning gondolas, and interactive platform elements, this detailed model brings the beast to life—perfect for HO scale carnival dioramas or amusement park layouts.

Key Features:

• Dynamic Motion System:
  
  The ride mimics the swinging and rotating action of the original Konga ride. A cleverly mounted angled N20 DC motor spins the gondola, while an SG90 servo motor creates the signature pendulum movement.

• Interactive Base with Moving Platform Flaps:
  
  Two additional SG90 servo motors operate the retractable boarding flaps, adding realism to the loading area.

• Durable and Realistic Mechanics:
  
  The model uses 2 ball bearings (3×7×3 mm) for smooth and stable axial suspension of the swing arms, ensuring fluid and balanced motion.

• Optimized for 3D Printing:
  
  Designed for PLA filament, the model is sturdy, easy to print, and can be painted to replicate real-life ride aesthetics.

• Electronics Ready:
  
  Compatible with Arduino and L298N motor control, giving you full control over motion patterns, speed, and sequencing.

Recommended Materials:

• PLA filament for the full structure
  
• 1x SG90 servo for pendulum motion
  
• 1x angled N20 DC motor for gondola rotation
  
• 2x SG90 servos for the movable platform flaps
  
• 2x ball bearings (3×7×3 mm) for swing axle suspension
  
• Arduino + L298N motor controller for full functionality
  

Summary:

The King Kong ride model is a stunning, feature-rich addition to any 3D printed fairground. With rotating and swinging motion, movable boarding flaps, and robust construction, it delivers an exciting, animated centerpiece for hobbyists and collectors.
