[MOC] Ferrari Testarossa

[Lukes_Brick_Studio]

Hello everyone,

I am really glad to present you my second MOC, a replica of the Ferrari Testarossa. This model is RC and has the following features:

• Rear wheel drive powered by a buggy-motor (this makes the car really fast (top speed around 11 - 12 kph (in ludicrous Mode)))
• Steering powered by a Servomotor
• Manual pop-up headlights
• Open able doors and detailed interior and exterior

The car is powered by a Buwizz (I choose it, because Buwizz gives the buggy-motor enough power).

Dimensions: length: 39 cm / width:15,5 cm / height: 10 cm / weight: 1,1 kg

The door was one of the hardest parts to create, but then I saw Jeroen Ottens version of the Testarossa and how he created the doors. His version of the doors inspired me, when I decided to choose the Ninjago blades for the doors. So a really recommend you to take a look at his beautiful Testarossa version too https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/163130-moc-ferrari-testarossa/

Impressive, especially for its scale.

That looks great. Very authentic. My only complaint is the headlights, they looks kind of weird when they’re popped up.

Impressive build! I think the only thing that needs to be done is covering up the studs.

Very nice creation. The front wheel arches are done in a way I haven't seen on a car before...Intresting.

Only thing I really dislike is that the pop-up headlights are looking up into the sky instead of lighting up the road ahead 

I know firsthand how hard it is to make working pop-ups, but this just looks weird.

 

PS: There are so very few blue pins peeking out in this model, I would recomment replcing those few with black ones as well. Very clean look!

Yes you are right the headlights look a little bit weird when they are popped up. But I did not find any better solution for them, because the room in the front is very limited caused by the small scale of the Model, so I was OK with the result. The idea to replace all the blue pins with black ones is very good. I will buy some of them to replace the blue ones.

Thank you for all the comments it helped me a lot, so I can improve my next creations in the future.

See You :)
