  1. I dont think I understand what you mean. tim
  2. Sorry for the double post but I have built one of Pitterx's Gearboxes. It is a 3 + R gearbox that is relatively small yet strong. Here you can see the rough placement. Now I need a sequential control for the gearbox. The positions of the gearbox are shown below: -------front of car------- first third reverse second Please leave any ideas below! tim
  3. Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately that gearbox doesnt have a reverse so it is unusable. tim
  4. I guess a linear/sequential gearbox would be the most effective in this situation, are there any other options? tim
  5. I have worked some more on the transmission placement as you can see below. Now I am searching for a 4 speed gearbox with reverse that can be easily remote controlled. My search has proved fruitless so far, so please leave any suggestions below. Here you can see the space i am working with (between the two extended axles). tim
  6. Progress looks good, still waiting for the mustang though . tim
  7. Wow all those cars look nice together, wish I could see them in person! tim
  8. The second one is awesome! Great little mechanism there. tim
  9. Okay thank you for the tip about the length. Ball joints is one possibility, though it would be different than the suspension in the real car. tim
  10. @Alasdair - Those might work, although the top part might hit on the bodywork/frame. @VK-318 - Unfortunately I think those pieces would fall apart under load. @Technyk32231 - 4L maximized the suspension travel and is also closer to the length of the link in real life. tim
  11. Looks like you get some nice performance out of it, nice work! tim
  12. I have more progress on the back axle! It seems as soon as I settle for one idea I think of another that is better! I will at least attempt to move on to the front axles. I do have one problem, there are no 4L beams with open holes at the ends. For now I am using 5L beams that over hang the end. If you have any ideas to solve this please let me know below! tim
  13. I agree, all the lines look great! How well does it drive with the L motor? tim
  14. Can you please become a movie man?! I would love to see this beauty in action. tim
  15. More progress on the frame. Since I changed wheels I have been reworking the rear axles yet again. Is it okay that they are not exactly identical to the real thing? tim
  16. Thank you for all of the kind comments! I realized that my scale was off (new scale is 1/9) so I have changed what wheels I am using and also gave the chassis a massive overhaul. I am thinking a composite studdless and studded frame will give enough support. As always, let me know what you think below! tim
  17. Love the blue, really sets it apart. I also really like how you filled in all the holes in the cab, well done. tim
  18. Okay thanks for the info, thats what I was thinking as well. tim
  19. I will once I get it out of the garage (in for the winter). This will definitely be a long project, which is why I posted here for the help. The only concern I have is that the buggy motor will stop and the power of the m motor will cause the buggy motor to spin the opposite way, making the differential useless. the workaround could be using a lockable diff like you said. tim
  20. I was really hoping to see that you would model the original suspension, glad to see that you did! I would love instructions for just the gearbox, are they available? tim
  21. Great looking car, it really follows the lines of the original well. Looks like it drives fast too! tim
  22. Such an amazing level of detail, too bad it doesnt have pf . tim
  23. Wow looks pretty cool, I would love to see a video. tim
  24. Great looking car, I love the color scheme as well. tim
