I have added pictures of the locations of motors and battery. I think this is on the edge of what is possible to motorize with Lego motors(if you not count the very rare micro motors) I have added more pictures in another reply. There is one M motor for drive and one M motor for steering. There is a simple return to center mechanism for the steering that works fairly good, but are not perfect. There is just not much space to make it any better.

I have now motorized another Icons/Creator Expert Veichles.(i have done 16 of them now) I always try to make the motorization as invisible as possible, you should not be able to see any electronics without looking very carefully. As an F1 is so small and compact, I had to make some smaller visible changes to be able to fit Buwizz and motors Steering wheel is still working, but the fake engine had to be removed. I have also motorized the McLaren, so now I can run a F1 Gran Prix in the living room:) Motorized with Buwizz and 2 PF M-motors. Instructions available at Rebrickable. Youtube video

Between the seats and the trunk, there is a big empty space there.

I think this set lacks a lot of functionality, but I have at least added motors and made it remote controlled It uses a Technic Powered Up Hub and 3 L motors(2 for drive & 1 for steering) Working steering wheel have been added I have hidden all electronics(very easy in this big set), very small visible changes have been made Is there any more functions I should add? There is still one output left on the hub. Youtube video Instructions available at Rebrickable

I have added photos from bottom and top(with some bricks removed), so that you can see where all the electronic pieces are placed.

I have now built the Corvette and as usual I have also made it remote controlled. Steering have a much better steering angle than stock and a rear differential, which makes it possible for very tight corners. Using the AAA(train) Hub and 2 Large Powered Up motors. I have made what I can to make the modification as invisible and clean as possible. The only real difference is that the trunk space are slightly smaller. Can you spot anything of the electronic parts? Video available at Youtube Instructions available at Rebrickable

I got some requests to add a Buwizz version with Power Functions motors to Land Rover RC instructions. It is now available at Rebrickable: Rebrickable Link
-
Yes the top can be lifted off. I have only made changes to the chassi.
-
I can fix that next week. I am not at home for a few days. I would love to build a 4WD version, but that will have to be with Buwizz or other smaller battery box. Or you have to sacrifice something. I wanted to build it with modern Lego battery and motors. I have at least kept the suspension working as it should.
-
How do you like my motorized Land Rover? I have tried to hide all electronics completely and keep all original functions. I would really have liked to make it 4WD with diffs, but there is not that much space to hide motors and other stuff in this model even if it is quite big. So for now it is only rear Wheel drive with a straight axle without diff. I might try with a Buwizz instead of Powered Up and add some more functions. Maybe a working winch and some lights?

I finally added a driver and it turned out great. Had to modify the arms to have freely moving joints. Instructions are updated with how to add a ”Starwars Buildable Figure”: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-95728

If using a Buwizz and a genuine Lego Servo it will be possible to have proportional steering. I used CaDa battery and Servo which do not have any steps.
-
Thanks! Your bikes are really, I actually tried to make it self balanceing, but it was not possible to make it slow enough to drive indoor and would also very hard to hide the electronics.
-
It as lot of steps to get a picture from the phone into this forum, but here it is.
-
I think it is under 1kg, but it is still much heavier than a Technic set. I had no intention to build a fast bike when I constructed it. But with Buwizz; CaDa pro motor and slightly higher gearing ratio, it will probably double the speed, but not enough for drifting. Tried to fit a large motor but was not able to hide it well enough.
-
It is so hard to attach photos in this forum... Battery sits between rear wheel and M motor, you can see the charge cable connected at on picture. In the video I used a CaDa battery and a Lego M motor. You could use a Buwizz in Ludicrous mode and maybe some clone motor with more power and it will be a lot faster. It is easy to change the gearing ratio also if needed.

As already said, the training wheels are tilting while the handlebar steers.

Full RC Conversion of 10269 Harley Davidson Fatboy After many hours of trial and error, broken bits and gray hair I have finally a working Remote Controlled Harley. And it actually works wery well and are not more fragile than the orginal set. My goal was to create a slower motorbike that you can play with in your living room, so self balancing was not an option as this requires high speed to work. My bike runs on "training wheels" all the time that leans at the same time as the handlebar stears. Have tried my best to hide the electronics an keep it as close looking as possible to the orginal set. Motorized wtih Buwizz/CaDa battery to save space and Power Functions motors.

VW T2 RC edition is now possible to build with almost any type of electronic parts(Powered Up, Power Functions, Buwizz etc). Think I found a good place to hide the IR Reciver. Altough Propane storage is permanently locked in PF version. What model do you like me motorize next?
-
Lego released a new Creator veichle and as a tradition I have motorized it with remote control. A bit easier to hide all electric parts this time as the car is really big. But it is also heavy and slow with only one L motor for drive. There are some small changes to the interior, but all details are still there. I have created instructions to build it with Powered Up parts, but if there are any interest I might add instructions for other power systems later. Rebrickable Instructions Youtube Video

Have now done a Powered Up version also. Buwizz 3.0 can also be used if you prefer that. Instructions are updated! All electronics are completly hidden, except the steering motor that is slightly visible.
-
I have also made a Power Functions version now. Pretty happy with how well i was able to hide IR reciever Instructions are also updated with Power Functions version Will start to work on a Powered Up version now.

I have tried to make a better presentation now and actually found the button to add pictures:) For the youtube video, I used a Buwizz battery. It will be a bit slower with CaDa but it have a geared up Large motor, so it is till moving at some speed. Can PU 45303 really be used as a servo? I believed that you need PU 88013 to get a motor with angle sensor.
