mihao Posted October 19, 2018 Author Posted October 19, 2018 Finally, 3 hours ago, LvdH said: Wow this looks great. I love the front end The instructions however have a lot of very difficult steps. Now I am all for a challenge, that’s the whole reason why I almost never buy sets, but you have entire assemblies built in one step whereas the other side had actual steps. Would it be a problem for you to send me the .io file? I’d love to have a look at it on my PC, perhaps making some easier-to-use steps. Finally, someone points this out. Thanks! When I created the instructions, I was thinking if I should put full steps on symmetric sides or I can just put full steps on one side and skip steps on the other. (Most of the time, I personally prefer to build the second side by checking the first side already built than following the instructions again, which gives me chances to understand the module a bit more.) I'll fix the instruction soon. Quote
Isamudyson Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 Car looks great. I've been building it digitally and noticed, as mentioned by lvdh, there are some issues with the instructions. Just to give you a idea i'm currently on around step 192 -194 and had to go forward a few steps to see how the pieces connect together. also the part on 192 would have been crazy to put in with the some parts already put in place. Would have had to tear apart the rear assembly to fit it in. I'm guessing you used Studio.io to build the instructions? Quote

Just noticed that steps around 192 have some rendering issue, at least the battery is missing there. I guess that there is some bugs in Studio.io. I am currently trying to improve the instructions, will post them when I'm done. BTW, thank you for following the instructions and please share a photo of your build when you finish. (You are not very far to the end!) Quote
Isamudyson Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 I'm just making it digitally in LDD as haven't had time to actually sit down and do a physical build. Quicker and easier to learn lol Quote
mihao Posted October 19, 2018 Author Posted October 19, 2018 Does anyone know a best tool to upload images to google photo? It is very hard for me to control the order uploading initially, and when moving photos around in the album, photos nearby randomly move by themselves, which drives me crazy. Quote
Isamudyson Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 you can export the studio io instructions as a pdf so you just have one file. Thats what i did. Quote

Thats what i did. yes, I can do it, but then I need to find a way ingest those cord pictures into the pdf, another hassle to deal with. Quote
AFOLegofan66 Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 Nice moc and pretty good instructions. I’m building it now and some steps are confusing but getting through it! Gonna look great when finished! Quote
mihao Posted October 19, 2018 Author Posted October 19, 2018 Just improved the instructions by: 1) fixed some part issues, including the universal joint and shock absorber. Studio.io seems breaking them apart when importing from LDD, so I have to manually replace them with the built-in parts in studio.io. 2) use a different color as the part outline, so it is easier to know where the new parts go in each step. 3) break down steps which seem to be over complicated. I manually verified each step to make sure all new part are visible one way or the other. Honestly, sometimes it is really tricky to find a good angle for a certain step. Let me know if you find any other issue. Below is the link of the instructions https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOgNjFTYIbAkVcHX9Iw0sE9J_GxHUxzYmq5Utr7mfdn9KHw4ZeHCMTsCR9yBaSXmw?key=RnVjcXc0X09qMGVmZ3pqWkNaSEg4Uzhxc1k4SkpB 8 hours ago, Isamudyson said: I'm just making it digitally in LDD as haven't had time to actually sit down and do a physical build. Quicker and easier to learn lol Yes, I used LDD before, and the main issue is sometimes part can't be put in the desired location even though there is enough space. Must a bug in LDD. While studio.io doesn't have this issue, and I have to give a thumb-up to the render function of studio.io. Quote
brickless_kiwi Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 An amazing build / design. One certainly can learn a lot from this MOC. Some very clever ideas executed very well, ( I'm going to have to steal that front end ) Hopefully you inspire a lot more car's in this scale ... Quote
Isamudyson Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 i went over the updated instructions and there are still one some areas that is hard to see. I'm still now sure how the seats fit in as where i assume where it fits is occupied by 2 more pieces, that i wasn't sure where they fit either, are currently located. Do you mind if i make some edits to the instructions and send it over to you via pm? might take a bit of time but may help? Quote

cizzyisabella Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 Can you add the parts name and # to the part list so we can order it online easier?
