efferman Posted March 8 Posted March 8 iam working on a RC version. The speed is good for a short time but after 2 or 3 minutes of braking and accelerating the white CaDA battery Box is shutting off. The actual setup contains 2 CaDA buggies, slow output and a 5.5:1 reduction. I should switch back to 9.25:1 to reduce the strain of the box, or do you think a buggy less would do it better? Quote

I think keep the speed the same for indoor play, slower would be boring IMO. Maybe use an rc lipo instead, or a buwizz with current limits. Quote

Nice, I agree with @Aurorasaurus the speed is perfect for indoor use. Just curious, who is the woman who walks in at the end of the video? Quote

msiminski Posted April 12 Posted April 12 Hey, brilliant mods, thanks! I have a solution for the axles and u-joints fitting together properly under the gearbox, if anyone's interested. Quote

I have a solution for the axles and u-joints fitting together properly under the gearbox, if anyone's interested. Sure, go for it! My solution was to use this, this or this. The minifig utensil ring felt a bit tight when rotating the axle so it may be a hair too wide. Unfortunately the shock absorbers are not fitting on the real wishnones (damn) but they fitted fone on the replica wishbones, so now I have to do a complete redesign of the ride height aduster, suspens, steering and diff assembly 😡. But, we got an improved stepper mechanism in a B model moc of this set so maybe we can add that to the P1. Not sure if the gearbox in the MOC is better too. Edited April 14 by SNIPE Quote
msiminski Posted April 14 Posted April 14 Actually I was referring to the drive axles with the torque limiter that's at an angle. Quote

Also, for some crazy unknown reason, the flappy paddle shifter was not shifting but I tested the gearbox before building any further and it shifted fine then, so now I had to take the engine, gearbox, paddle shifter, and a bunch of small structural assemblies out of the chassis :( and I still don't know where I went wrong... nor am I particularly enthusiastic about having to reassemble it all and then continuing with the front axle and dashboard... Yes, I have the same problem. I got to the point of starting to build the seats, but the paddle shifter doesn't work at all. It doesn't even come close to working. I'm going to have to start disassembling and troubleshooting. I'm pretty sure I've followed the "pimped" instructions correctly. Quote

The paddle shifting assembly works perfectly on its own (disconnected from anything else) and I successfully tested the gearbox on its own before. So the problem must be with the chunky CV joints.
