Leonardo da Bricki Posted October 30, 2017 1. Welcome to EuroBricks! 2. What kind of help do you need? Design advice? Where to start? Scaling? Please be more specific, it will be easier to help you that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aminnich Posted October 31, 2017 First question, which tires are you going to be using? We can all help you better after that. The MOC revolves around the tires, as you can not change those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mocbuild101 Posted October 31, 2017 Welcome to Eurobricks @Krisha! I agree with @aminnich, you should pick the tires first, but also, you should pick the scale - as that will affect what tires you have to choose from. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1gor Posted October 31, 2017 @Krisha first of all welcome to Eurobricks. Golden rule when building your creations is as @aminnich said to start with tires. Tell us which tires you have available so we could help you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krisha Posted October 31, 2017 First of all let me thank you all for your welcom @Leonardo da Bricki @aminnich@mocbuild101 and @I_Igor I have Tumbler Tire 81.6 x 44 R. I know they are wider then original on X3 but I think i will give more agresive look to ATV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aminnich Posted October 31, 2017 Ok so not taking the width into account. Figure out the ratio of the diameter of the real tire to the tumbler tire. If you do not know how, post the diameter (or radius) of the real tire and we can help you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krisha Posted October 31, 2017 @aminnich I will use @Sariel scaling tool to do all mesurments. And hopefully I will have some progress done this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boulderer Posted October 31, 2017 Have you managed to get a drawing / blue print of the maverick x3, to use with Sariel's scaling tool? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krisha Posted October 31, 2017 @Boulderer ther is some pictures on google, and some framework pictures. Puting all that together you are able to get some where Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jurss Posted October 31, 2017 this and this should be enough without blueprint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boulderer Posted October 31, 2017 Many thanks @Jurss. I also found those two images. The challenge seems to be locating images that allow you to identify key features, such as pivot points and structural mounts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aaybes Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) Hi there! Krisha, did you get anywhere with this project? I just started researching this very thing – Westworld inspiration. ;) Cheers, Alex PS: these are the wheels I'm thinking of: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=45982#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} Edited July 9, 2018 by aaybes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
