Another Drift Car (WIP)

[FriedlS]

I started a new project: 4WD Drift Car 😊

steering design is a idea from @NoEXIST:

 

[MajklSpajkl]

Start is very promising, but are you sure about 4WD? Seems RWD at the moment.

[FriedlS]

Yes i am sure about 4WD! 😊 

[Gray Gear]

It looked rwd to me too! Can you show how the front wheels are driven? Must be a very compact system!

[FriedlS]

It is almost the same front axle like @NoEXIST shared on rebrickable:

 Affirmative  Very compact indeed.

It is very compact. But the steering angle is very limited.

Btw, the mould king 2.4GHz rc components work pretty good 😊

I like it! Nothing unwanted here

[FriedlS]

Thanks @NoEXIST!! 
Now i have to build a body, this will be the most difficult part for me 🙈

Good luck! Which car it would be?

[FriedlS]

Not really. A kind of a sedan like subaru… 

[FriedlS]

After a long time, i made a little progress in building the body:

If - like me - you find bodywork a pain, you could always take your internals and wrap them in an existing model's body. Maybe Piterx' Lancia Stratos?

How does that battery work for you? I'm kind of intrigued by it--especially why it has six leads per plug! Could some sort of sensor be coming to this PF-based platform?

[FriedlS]

It works very well, of course it hasen‘t got the power like BuWizz. But i love the proportional controller without using a cellphone!
for this model i don‘t need 6 ports of course, but for my wheel loader (you can see it in my second trophy truck clip a few month ago) it is very helpful! 😊

[FriedlS]

Now i finished my drift car: 

 

and i made a new clip:

hope you like it 😊

Definitely gives me AE86 Trueno Sprinter vibes, and looks great!

Why Trueno? it has fixed headlights, so I's say Levin vibes 

[FriedlS]

Thank you very much! 😊 

Levin vibes?? What is it? 🤔

[Gray Gear]

@FriedlS

Left: AE86 Trueno        Right: AE86 Levin

Basically the same car with a bit different design. Both were offered not only as a Hatchback but also like this:

[FriedlS]

I see, thank you very much!😊👍

Ah I see. Thanks for showing. I definitely like the Trueno more, the pop ups just add character and style to the whole car.

Very nice! I haven't seen any 4WD drift cars on such small wheel!

And what is the total weight of a finished model? 

 

[FriedlS]

The weight is about 500g 😕 less weight would be better

But it is a very good proportion still! Half a kilo per 1 Buggy motor!
