Lixander Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) After seeing my first Lego RC off-roader finished, I stumbled across the retro RC buggys and truggys design; I just fell right away for their looks and color-schemes, so I it was a must to recreate at least one. I started with a 4x4 version, which is still in the testing phase, then I went for a more robust and simple variant, so to say. The mk1, completely different from the inspiration I had, was a test-bed; I tried to put all my knowledge into the smallest chassis I could, but keeping everything simple (you can read and see more of the mk. 1 here). Moving to the mk.2, the main subject, I switched to 2 batteries and fully independent suspension and dropped the positive caster angle. The mk.2 has: 4x 6.5L hard shock absorbers for the fully independent suspension removable body-work and rear wing 1x servo-motor for the steering and 2x buggy motors for traction (geared at 1.67:1) it can hold 2x BuWizz 2 hubs or similar batteries it has about the same pieces as my first RC Lego off-roader, so it should go at least as fast as it - that is about 11km/h or 6-7mph 3D files are on my Rebrickable Edited January 10, 2023 by Lixander Quote
