syclone Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Good Day. This is a small desert-rally styled offroader that was made in roughly 8-9 hours during New Year's holidays. Weight of 637g. Powered by BuWizz v1. Features: -4x4 drive with slowest output of buggy motor -Return-to-center steering (m-motor) -Independent suspension on all wheels -Over 2 studs of clearance under the car -Openable doors, bonnet and trunk. -Detailed engine bay & interior -Stickers all over the car, including rear-view mirrors & rear lights -Minor detailing on the outside (lightbar, antenna...) The suspension mechanism relies on the vertical movement of the drive input of the axle , changing main pivot point from one CV to another, allowing for each wheel's independent movement from each other.

HorcikDesigns Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 I really like this car - small, full of nice details, covered with nice set of stickers, fast, and with proportions that are not too far from real thing. However, I am also interested in the meaning of ANSYS sticker - In case you did some simulations (FEM, etc.) for this car, would it be possible to show them too? Quote
offroadcreations Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Very cool. IMO one of your best looking models. Nice use of the A-arm in the front suspension. Edited January 6, 2018 by Offroadcreat1ons Quote

Leonardo da Bricki Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Great little 4x4! Love the looks and the functions, the suspension design is very cool. Quote
Victor Imaginator Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 I like this suspension setup. Clever, compact, unusual. And it's very detailed model for it's size and functions) Quote
syclone Posted January 10, 2018 Author Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) Thanks everyone for commentaries! Apologies for late answer and for bringing this back, but - LDD file ready (Open with LDD Developer Mode (click toggle physics test option) ; medium blue parts are a substitution for 2x 44135 ; 4x soft springs from 6'5l shock absorbers are used for suspension ; the leftover parts in the file shouldn't be a problem) Download: HERE! (G Drive) @HorcikDesigns No tests were performed , but I'd guess a construction brick has the same aerodynamics as this @Aventador2004 A live axle does not allow independent wheel movement , this , is however an independent suspension , since one wheel's movement does not affect other wheel(s) - as shown in the videoclip embedded in the first post Edited January 10, 2018 by Xewyz2001 Quote

Great Ball Pit Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I like the harnesses, I haven't seen that done before. Quote
