Zerobricks Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 After much time spent I managed to redesign my mecanum wheels with bigger and slighty smoother wheels. Having bigger wheels I decided to build a massive 4 XL motor strong all direction drivable monster. Here is the result: The doors and the steering wheel can open to show the interrior. Double V12 engines for maximum POWUH! The car also has suspension to smooth out the not-so-smooth wheels. Video of the car in action: Even though the car is quite heavy, the 4 XL motors power up the wheels with 1:1 gear ratio with ease. Thanks to the whels and independent 4x4 drive, the car is fenomenally agile and really fun to play, drive arround and trying different kind of tricks. Quote

DLuders Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 Whoa -- twin V12 mills for power! Are you planning on making LDD Building Instructions for the Sidewinder? Quote

Zerobricks Posted May 20, 2012 Author Posted May 20, 2012 Thanks for the thumbs up guys As you requested, here's a picture of the underise: Notice the suspension arms used to hold the steering in place, total of 4 arms per wheel. Quote
tibivi Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 That is really fun! Also your suspension is very clever, how is it atached to the weels? Tibivi Quote

Ecclesiastes Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 Well that's defenitely something different! But very wel executed, as are the brick build chairs! Quote
Saberwing40k Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Oh Yeah, MAX POWER!!!!! I'm in love with this model, and it looks really good. my one and only knock is that you should have removed some of the stickers. I so wish my car had power like that. Quote
Burf2000 Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 A really cool idea, I never thought of making the wheels like that. Inspiring! Quote
