Arioh Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) Hello to all. I decided to try my weak skills in this small car challenge too. I decided to totally change while direction of my entry, instead of baja-bettle-buggy ill will do Hi-Ace style mini-truck. Old (totally different) idea: Spoiler So here is first version of yet-unnamed car. didnt sure what will be in result of this very strange build... Current features :Flat-4 engine drivien by rear axle via differential. Front axle steering. Full suspension. Suspension in such tight size withou balljoint is is pain in back.. So i managed to come with this very strange scheme - rear suspension is simple tatra-like swing axle. Front one is pendular and suspended in same time. Edited April 11, 2020 by Arioh Quote
Mechbuilds Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 Very interesting front suspension. Well done! Quote
Arioh Posted April 6, 2020 Author Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) Small update. Just quickly threw together crude test body. Body and chassis are both build like tank, feels very solid and robust. Still, body could be very easily removed (in RC style) - just just need to pull out two pins, take off 2 half-bushes and HOG gear. Also its realively easy to pull out engine from chassis. Maybe ill pause here, maybe redesgin body, or made whole new entry, i didnt sure yet... UPD - Added LXF file https://www.dropbox.com/s/tbuasw7g5wy6kv9/Baja Bug.lxf?dl=0 And work on this baja-like buggy is stopped. Working on other model for TC18 Edited April 11, 2020 by Arioh Stopped to work on this vartiant and building different idea from scratch. Added LXF for this basic model. Quote
