[MOC] 2WD Drift Racer Chassis

[mocbuild101]

Here are the instructions: http://www.bricksafe.com/files/mocbuild101/drift-racer-chassis/2WD Drift Racer Instructions.pdf

And here is the 3D file: (you might need it for where to put the PF wires) http://www.bricksafe.com/files/mocbuild101/drift-racer-chassis/2WD Drift Racer 3D file.mpd

They took longer to make than I expected (partly because of the recent competition to make the fastest Lego car!), but at least it meets the high standards I set for my instructions.  

All you guys on Eurobricks are getting early access to the instructions, because I won't be uploading them to Rebrickable for a few days .

What program did you use to make the instructions?

Just now, TechnicRCRacer said:

MLcad for making the digital model and LPub3D for turning it into PDF instructions.

Note: if you want to use these programs, it's best to just download the LDraw all-in-one installer, because this includes some other programs that are essential for MLcad and LPub3D to work.

I have finally got around to putting this on Rebrickable!

I have been busy with building/testing my speedcar, and also have been trying out POV-Ray (with mixed results).

So expect some renders and more photos soon!

And don't forget to upload your fan photos to Rebrickable if you build it!

Woah! If only I had a buggy Motor! This is great!

Here is the POV-Ray render that I promised:

I think it could be better, but I'm still learning how to use POV-Ray...

But as a bonus, I also created a 3D animation: (I don't know why the PF receiver top is transparent though...)

Thanks to @BusterHaus for the explanation on how to make it:
