Welcome to Eurobricks Imurval.

You made a good job on motorizing the F1 car,while keeping it tidy and looking like the original version.

Welcome to EB!

I like how you used the empty sides, very compact and hidden!

Nice. I love to mod this set myself, as an F1 fan I just had to buy this set. I'm still trying to get used to electric motors with Lego as my other hobby is petrol RC racers which have terrific power/weight ratios by comparison.

You did an awesome job! Way beyond my expectations.

Hi,

I like this model very much and decided to motorize it again but this time with hiding the battery box and the IR receiver in the body. Only the driving and the steering are motorized now. Here is the result:

That's a fantastic mod! Great job getting all those functions in neat and tidy.

Good performance to zipping around.
