Is it done? Where are the guns which would make this the Dualshot?

Ahh, forgot to attach them!

Looks good, but I think the front/back and back/front could do with some more panels... (but I guess it's a bit hard with the steering moving so much)

I tried adding more panels, but the shifting bumpers have taken their toll. The one way to cover would sacrifice moving bumpers. I will maybe extend the bumpers through.

Some more pics!

Dual-Shot mk2

Are you tired of spinning your vehicle, and having to turning around? Are you wanting twin Ion cannons, one each end? Than the Dual-shot is the car for you! 

This vehicle's backstory is easy, i have a racing wheel, as a extra hobby. When i use it, the Ai characters try and spin me out, and i have to turn the car back around. With Dual-shot, that isn't a problem, and i have cannons to blast them out of my way!

  • Hog (one each end)
  • Dual Ion cannons (hence the name)
  • Electric power (theoretical)
  • Active bumpers (symmetrical)
  • Strong chassis
  • Pop up lights (on steering column)

Thanks for reading, now enjoy the pictures and video!

(^^ for entry topic)

Sorry for another double post, but I want to add. I took apart the chassis a bit, to change a few pins, and I modded the car, and will be changing the colors. Are there any mods I should make?

Well, it is a dualshot, so why no double post :wink:. I even think it would be wacky if you would enter the contest twice with this model :laugh:.

Ok, I think final design is ready. I even made a few arrow on the pictures for in the entry topic.

Still same functions, but I tore apart middle structure for color change.

It turns in 28 inches circle.

Do you like the arrows?

Isn't this to be illustrated by a video?

I don't have a video editor, so I put them in pictures, like lego box art pictures

Aha. But you can make a video, or a few snippets, right? You can concatenate them here. And you can convert images to video snippets here. I thought a video was mandatory.

And there are online video editors. I used a trial account with Magisto (which I need to cancel within one week to avoid costs :grin:).

I prefer to make good pictures, and short videos, Just enough to show what moves. And my YouTube account is problematic, with very little storage.

How? You can have a video with up to 15 minutes, and as many under-15 minute videos you want, not verified.

Not sure, I can check sometime. I don't need much longer vids for now.

The videos get limited anyway, and It is not doing HD either, even on wifi.I

BTW, this build is in the entry topic, and complete.

That depends on your camera, not youtube itself.

An iphone, with no HD? No, YouTube itself limits it.

No it doesn't, my Banana Scorpion video was uploaded in HD just fine (also on wifi), maybe it's just because your using a phone to upload it - you should try using a computer...

This may sound crazy, but make the whole upper body of the car spin (the seating compartment, hood and rear) whilst the wheels and bumpers stay the same.

That would be really really cool

That would be cool... especially if you powered the spinning with a spring or rubber band...

I see 3 problems, even if I could.

1. a lot of my parts are building a supercar.

2. I would only have one day to: build, test, do my daily activities, video, take pictures, and repost.

3. The seating compartment is fully structural.

The whole this would have to be redesigned for that to happen. But it definitely would have made it more wacky

Sorry I couldn't get it to work now I was hoping, I was at a loss of time.
