Hello guys, I want u to show a new W.I.P. from me.

It is a Volkwagen Golf V, it's driven by a buggy motor and steered by a M motor and a return to the center block.

thx for the compliment.

Your spring design is realy good . Sadly my springs were not stiff enough so i took a rubber band to make the suspension stiff.

Which receiver do you use? V1 ? Why it stucks?

It will be very detailed but heavy in the finish...no drift, no life:))) if dont plan drift - its OK;)

Yes sadly i only have a V1, the buggy usses so much power that the power supplie stop) i dont know it exactly)

mainly the car wont drift because it has a diff, and there isnt much room (hope u can see that there isnt much room)

I will try too upload 2 vids tomorow, 1 for outside driving and 1 for drifting( actually a VW golf cant realy drift because it is frontwheel driven XD )

[piterx]

no mate the car won't drift due to its weight and weight distribution too

you should have more weight in the front and less on the rear axle so it can lose grip easier

[olaf9198]

guys, the video is almost ready to upload but sadly i do not have any time to upload it to youtube, I will post it tomorrow

The m motor is stalling when you turn and causing the circuit to break, especially with the current draw of the buggy motor. Try using a clutch gear, so when maximum lock is achieved the motor can still turn.

Great model btw, hope you get it finished and working well.!
