Nice, looking forward to seeing it!

Does anyone know if it's possible to replace the white panels with black ones? I feel it would be a good color combination with 8285 vibes!

Ok thank you Oh right, why didn't I think of that. Thanks anyway!

Does anyone know if the 8288 has any stickers? I'm looking for a used set and noticed certain listings on bricklink mentioned stickers, but there are no sticker sheets according to the inventory? Thanks.

Hi everyone, thank you for your kind help. I've managed to solve the issue by using extra strong batteries!

@Jundiskk got it, thanks so much for your help! 🙂

@amortialright, I will give that a try. Thanks! @Jundisok I will try this out, do you know what's the name/part number of the red gear and grey casing? Thank you!

@Jundis@amorti Thanks for the welcome and prompt replies! Hmmm, I did think of gearing down, but I was hoping to achieve the same speed as the videos I referred to. How is it that it worked fine for them and not for me? I'm pretty sure we all used the same steps... I guess it could really be down to the construction of the rear differential and axles?

Hi everyone, I've finished trying to RC my 42043 and it seems that the PF L motor has issues providing sufficient power to drive the set? I obtained instructions from the creator of this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpP_05uxKqs&t=22s&ab_channel=PawełWojnarowski) and also checked PPUNG DADDY's 42043 RC video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8easq7ueIo&ab_channel=PPUNGDADDY(뿡대디)-LEGOTECHNICRC), both used an L motor with no problems. Here's a video of the issue: https://youtu.be/J8P13WLPzN8. As you can see in the video, the motor loses power after driving for some time, eventually being unable to drive at all. The problem is worsened when I try to drive and steer at the same time, it's almost impossible to drive and turn. I have tried swapping the tyres around, changing batteries, trying a V1 and V2 IR receiver, switching positions of the motor and servo cables, and using a new L motor. But the problem still persists. Here's a photo of the L motor: Could it be because of excess friction introduced in the rear axles during construction? Because I noticed when I lifted up the rear axles, the motor spins the wheels at its standard rpm, BUT only 1 wheel on each axle spins, the other is stationary. Then when the wheels contact the floor, the motor suddenly seems to struggle with driving the thing. Hence I was thinking could it be that I built the differential too "tightly"? Appreciate any help from the technic experts in this forum, thanks in advance!
