I fear bright green, since the Porsche is also bright green..

Yeah, recolors are always good for parts. Recolored cars should not be counted as one more set, in the sense it's just a bonus item. It's not taking the spot from anything else.

Thanks, sounds interesting. I see that most components are just standard RC electronics without any lego compatible housing, the main thing is the in-wheel motors and custom rims, but that can result in good play experience and easy installation.

What is this Add Power? I could not find any info about them online. 3rd party electronics company? Do you have more info?

That runs pretty smooth even on the dense grass! And indeed, the cost sounds good too! What are those motors exactly? They seem pretty flat! And how did you fix the U-joint to the output shaft? With a thin plate inserted?

You need to learn to read these properly and take then with a grain of salt. It was clearly some AI generated piece of text copy-pasted from somewhere (maybe based on people's wishes expressed somewhere). Also, motorizing a 1:8 supercar with lego electronics would be clearly a pointless thing, even 1:10 cars can only move quite slowly with weak lego electronics; all playability would be lost.

Congrats on the model! Can you please give more insight into what this exactly means, how it is achieved? I don't know how a proper boxer engine should work, but some people say this cannot be true with the lego cam/piston pieces. For example, there are 3 cams and 6 pistons, so they are paiwise connected/dependent. Is that true for the real engine? Furthermore, the cams can only be rotated 90 degrees, no 60 or 120 degree difference can be made (as would be realistic to achieve uniform spacing). That means that two cams will be 180 degree opposite each other, which means that 2 pistons out of the 6 are going to fire at the same time (on opposing sides). Is that realistic for this car? Or do we misunderstand something?

Thanks, nothing specific, just the overall constructions is what I was curious about!

Looks cool on pictures, do you have a video of it floating? :) Though may be hard to capture.. Can you show details of the new parts you developed?

Merry Christmas! That sounds like a good adventure! :)

Merry Christmas to You All!

I like the chassis construction a lot, everything is neatly packed in, and seems to drive well even with standard PF electronics! And looks cool too!

Indeed, deserves to be seen here! A 7 stud wide build with 3 RC functions is another testament on how much potential is left on the table by official Lego electronics!

Anyone else having invisible white text on white background on the Technic subforum? Happens only here, other themes render well. Checked on multiple devices and multiple browsers, same everywhere for me. @Jim what's happening?

If there's only weight limit, then what's the contest really about? I think the B model requirement makes it more interesting, that's where we started from, no? I don't think there's a need for requiring a part list. For such small builds, it should mostly be possible to see on the photos that parts of the B model are also in the A model. If something is not visible, it's possible to ask where it is, or even request more photos that make certain parts visible.
