Best way it would be if you can borrow eheels from your frend, put them on and make photos to see it this is ideal solution Quote

TC12 topic coming Sunday :) Well you have best overview of your situation. My suggestion should save you eventual expanses if it turns out that 42039 wheel/tire combo is not perfect... Quote
BrickbyBrickTechnic Posted October 9, 2017 Author Posted October 9, 2017 Quick update: I've been making quick modifications as I go about building other things I added some reinforcement, so now the roof module is sturdy and the chassis is much stronger. As well, I changed up the steering gear, which reduced delay in rear wheels. Quote
BrickbyBrickTechnic Posted October 19, 2017 Author Posted October 19, 2017 UPDATE: The new wheels ( those from 42039) have arrived. Having tested them, they add no friction nor stress to the steering mech. What this means is that I have 1 last idea to remove the rear wheel delay. Expect 3 updates in the next 4 days. Happy building! Quote
BrickbyBrickTechnic Posted October 21, 2017 Author Posted October 21, 2017 Abandoning this. Chassis is optimal (steering delay is the least I could get it to) but bodywork is gonna be a huge pain which I don't wanna go through. If you want a video on the functioning of the chassis, please tell me because I will dismantle this in the near near future. Thank you. Quote
