    This is so cool! Great idea! My favorite part is walking mechanism

    Great video and a fantastic candidate for the contest, good luck!

    Thanks! You're right, there is no dif. just direct drive to rear wheels - simplest possible solution. Thank you very much!

    17. Daydream Hello everyone, my C-model for the contest was made out of a Quad Bike (9392) and a Black Champion Racer (42026) parts. I called it "Daydream" Functions: - Suspension: Independent front, dragged rear axle - Steering: Working steering wheel - Pull back motor (RWD) with a locking mechanism - Openable scissor doors - Extendable/retractable front part of the car - Adjustable rear wings Dimensions: Length: 22-24cm/ Width: 15cm/ Height: 9cm. 329 pieces used out of 343 (spare parts included). Weight: 332g. 14 leftover parts: Functions are presented in the video: Please note that the video was made before final changes to the model, more details can be found in the discussion thread: http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=102480

    Hahahahahaha Sure, if the prize of knowledge that you were right wasn't enough, just tell me which song do you want me to play for you:

    Thanks, I'm really glad you like it! erelender, my inspiration for the front part was actually the KTM X-Bow (because of color combination and panels that i had).

    Got it. In my case, difference in caster angle (between those two version) is relatively small so i didn't really notice greater improvement in performance. I'm sure that The Dawnbreaker has better performance with that superpositive caster and automatic return-to-centre steering - very cool feature btw. Regarding the photos, I agree with you. These red tones are actually reflection of a red wall next to which I took the photos (beginner's mistake - won't happen again ). I wasn't sure how black/orange combination will look on black background but I'm satisfied how it turned out.

    Thanks! I'm not sure how much did this change improve performance, unfortunately I didn't measure the reach of the previous version, I don't think there is a big difference. But I'm pleasantly surprised with how the pull back motor copes with 332g heavy vehicle
  11. sm 01
    I made some changes to improve caster angle - basically, I made it little bit longer and set the cabin little bit lower. Here are some photos of the new version: I used three more parts, so here are the 14 remaining parts: "Daydream" in numbers: 329 pieces. Length: 22-24cm/ Width: 15cm/ Height: 9cm. Weight: 332g. I hope you'll like it...

    Thanks a lot Zblj! Thank you Miha! We have chosen the same models - The Dawnbreaker looks so cool! Thanks Jeron! I'm glad you like the front - inspiration was the KTM X-Bow, although the end result is far from the original. I am aware that I may have gone too far with the chains... Thank you Rishab N, I'm glad you like it! Thank you very much Horace!

    Great work Paul! I like your idea to make it light-weight and can't wait to see performance of the motorized version. Would you be so kind to share more details, what can we expect? SBrick, Buggy motor/s perhaps... My imagination is going all over the place now.
  15. sm 01
    Wow! What a great idea! :thumbup: Possibility of body swapping (btw. they both look awesome) for those two models is beyond cool! But, as if that were not enough, you've made two versions of chassis (manual and rc) for those two beautiful bodys... I've never seen anything like it and I really love it!

    Great work Madoca! It looks so cool and it works great.
  17. sm 01
    Great overall appearance and fantastic functionality, especially for that scale (very cool steering). Can't wait to see the video.
  18. sm 01
    Great model! Powerful and lightweight (just as I like it) and very accurate aesthetically. I like the video too, nice surface to film it.
  19. sm 01
    Very cool buggy! Color, suspension, engines... I love everything about it! Btw. Very nice video demonstration.
  20. sm 01
    Great work. I really like how it looks - very nice color combination and cool rool cage. 2 RC motors/central diff lock sounds promising, can't wait to see it in action!
  21. sm 01
    Thanks! I agree with you guys about wheelbase, it should've been shorter.
  22. sm 01
    Thanks guys! I was thinking about putting the receiver at the back, above RC motor - It would shorten the wheelbase for three studs, but then I decided to hide it down there... I tried to shorten it with relatively large angle of RC motor, but I guess that the angle could've been larger
  23. sm 01
    Thanks! That's a great idea - almost everyone would have a "horse" for that race!
  24. sm 01
    Thanks for suggestion aol000xw! I managed to buy them before they were sold out.

    Hello everyone, I’ve just bought RC motor and I wanted to make a relatively simple and fun to drive off-road vehicle. Here is my first off-road MOC: Video of driving outdoors with basic info: Short review and indoor action (jumps and drift): Basically, I tried to make it as light as possible – it weighs 502g. It is 35 studs long, 19 studs wide and 16 studs high. Drive: 1 RC motor (outer output) directly connected to the rear wheels - RWD only. Relatively long travel suspension (front independent, rear dragged axle), and decent ground clearance. 8878 battery is in the middle, set lowest possible, for better weight distribution. Also there are few details in the interior. The IR receiver is hidden between battery and the servo (to save space, it partly goes under the servo motor). Servo motor for steering (with 4 round plates at each side also acts as a fake V8 engine under the hood). Doors and hood can be open, they come with safety locks to prevent unwanted opening - very often on rough terrain For sense of scale, here it is next to my 9398 Crawler: At the end, I really need to share my impressions about RC motor. It is really impressive, especially after I got used to the characteristics of the PF motors and tried almost every combination (PF motors&batteries) to achive better performance Of course, I knew it is fast, but nevertheless, you should've seen huge smile on my face on the first test drive. I wish I could turn back time and buy it earlier! More photos can be found at: MOCpages - http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/397115 Flickr - https://www.flickr.c...57647629179022/ All in all, this turned out to be very fun to play MOC, hope you'll like it…
