T Lego

It is definitely possible, as the original design was made with official lego parts, see my original post. Afterwards many people have succeeded in building it with original parts as well. It should be fairly straight forward, because the CaDa set was essentially retrofitted with their panel versions.

Just to confirm and avoid any misinformation, the Audi RS6 is my next design for the CaDa Master series. Unfortunately I cannot share more information about it at this stage and I was surpised to see this seemingly leaked image. The licencing has caused many delays, as with Bruno's AMG ONE back in the day, but hopefully I can share more details about the set later this year. Could very well be possible, emphasizing the 'eventually' though.

@Tup4n Thank you for sharing the final work! The result is impressive, to say the least, and I am glad you could keep some of the original features. Not to mention the looks have not been affected much, as well as the interior - bravo! I hope the dynamic suspsension assists in stablizing the car through turns. In fact that was the main idea behind the mechanism, although I never imagined someone driving it around at speeds where it could ever make a difference. Cheers!

@Tup4n Wow, awesome work man! Keep me posted for the final result. Did you manage to keep the dynamic suspension? Its hard too see on the footage

@Tup4n Thank you for sharing! I am curous to see how it will end up perfoming, keep me updated!

It is neither Bruno's creation, nor mine. My upcoming model will be from a different German Brand. It is designed by a young Chinese guy working at CaDa. Bruno and I had the opportunity to see it in person during our trip to Shenzhen last year and it is really something to look forward too!

I wouldn't worry too much about the catalogue. The are some other bigger releases lined up for 2025, including my next entry in the Master series. Absolutely! To give a bit more context: a brand new line up of concave panels has been developed. Sizes and profiles are similar to the ones in the convex panel set we've known for many years. In fact, many are concave counterparts to the original panels, e.g. the large panels resembling the front wing elemens on the new Sauber are the concave version of Lego's #5/6 panels. One can also spot a 2x2 transistion panel next to the headrest which can line up with both the convex and concave panels and is super versatile IMO. It will allow even better bodywork replication, particularly in exotic cars where convex surfaces appear frequently. Not all concave panels that have been developed so far appear in this set, but it should give a good idea about the system.

@Tup4n Sounds cool! Surely you will have to redesign huge parts of the chassis and some parts of the bodywork. - Yes the weight is arround 3KGs, I am unable to give you an exact measurement at the moment. Parts count doesn't always scale proportionally with weight. I used quite a lot of small parts and don't forget that CaDa's panels and frames are composed of several sub-parts. - Yes, you can use Sian or bugatti rims Make sure to share the video here once the projected is completed!

Very nice model and presentation, thank you for sharing! Creative approach to the concave door and I like how you used the wrench for the taillights. I think it would look better in yellow though

Great build Lox! I like the new direction in which your latest builds are going. I see greater panel density whilst ommiting the usage of small liftarms and connectors to replicate shapes. I must agree with the critics of some others here regarding the doors. I personally would have kept the door itself rectangular / 'legal', and rather inclined the whole door with respect to the chassis. This does impose a new challenge on the door hinge, but there are many ways to deal with that.

Correct. I see no logic/patern in why some parts have active patents and some haven't. The vast majority of the parts is not protected. As far as I'm aware of, in the technic catagory only a list of panels, some frames, rotary catch and these parts: , , , , , . Yes, that is the plan.

Thanks for the heads up Differences compared to the previous version: 1: Replacement of old curved panels by the new ones to comply with TLG's copyright. (notice the rounder panel edges on types #1/2, #3/4, #5/6, #13/14, #17/18, #21/22) 2: Replacement of several other pieces to comply with TLG's copyright, most notably: , 3: Minor structural improvements, only in areas where where it could be realised with minimal changes/extra parts. E.g. the rear pinhole in the mudguard panel is now connected to the subframe of the engine cover and the taillights are much better secured now. 4: Potentially improved parts quality. I cannot confirm this, but improving part quality is a continuous on-going process, not specifically for this set of course. Now that the CaDa's parts catalogue is fully compliant with TLG's copyright, us designers can safely work with all parts in their current catalogue (and help innovate new parts!) without unwanted surprises like was the case during development of this set. Hence, the quality of the sets will only continue to go up, exciting stuff to come!

@BrickMonkeyMOCs Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts and modifications - It is greatly appreciated! I fully agree with you and, of course, I am well aware of the mentioned flaws. I do want to elaborate on the sagging engine cover: In many cases, this occurs because of incorrect orientation of the tri-connector as illustrated here: I do recommend trying to re-establish the encircled connection below, which the R&D department removed. The red pin connector would clash with their new panels, which don't have the half-stud gap below the #13/14 panel. This will add some needed rigidity in the engine cover. A fix for this is included in my V3 as well, but I currently cannot provide a better illustration unfortunately.

@head1004 The model was designed with the older shocks, because the new ones were not in production yet during the design phase. Moreover they are much harder to integrate properly due to their size, particularly in a model like this with complex suspension features. I haven't seen any mods yet with updated shock absorbers and will personally not invest anymore time on this finished project. @amorti You are aware the car in the link you sent is a totally different build of mine, in much smaller scale?

Sorrry, but I don't have any updates on this at the moment. Considering the large amount of sets which are about to be released, I can imagine the release of the updated version will not be prioritised. I'd say keep an eye out on the CaDa webstore. Logically, the box design will be updated for the v3 because the updated panels - that is how you can identify which version is being sold. I would advise you to consider getting the V2. There are plenty of forums/videos with people illustrating adjustments you can make. Besides, most of the updates are to avoid usage of copyrighted parts. In the meantime I am investing all my free time in my next big licenced release.
