    It is ugly, but not bad as your eyes can see. That's good base set for motorization and modification. I like it. And who is Lars Thygesen? Is he a new member of Lego Technic team? No info about him at lego.com

    The problem of this steering system is visible to me: servo rotates 90 degrees. Your steering axle will rotate only 45 degrees each direction. Servo will be stalled in the 45 degrees position, and after that motor will try to rotate axle till 90 deg increasing rotating power and eating larger amount of electricity. At the end servo will eat so much current in cooperation with buggy motor at the second channel, so receiver turn the protection on. Another problem I met in the same configuration - servo can deform front suspension while increasing strength of rotation, so it suspension arms cant work free with turned wheels.

    They checked 24 tooth 2m diff in white flexible POLISHED, and it is in production now. Very interesting: why 20t was rejected and z24 was approved?!:)

    Too much PFs for such small size. You can save some space and weight if you can use 1 motor for clearance and winch with help of gearbox:)

    Hi Effe I ordered many parts, including differenet types of differentials, but shapeways canceled my most wanted diff 20Z 2L diff: "After taking a closer look, we cannot print part of your order 456618, placed on 06/20/2014. We’ve credited €17.49 to your Shapeways account for the following: 4 X Diff 2m 20z in White Strong & Flexible Polished designed by efferman - $5.00 Given the nature of 3D printing, converting digital files into physical products, every now and then we catch designs that would be too fragile to create in certain materials. Though we do our best to identify these issues as early as possible, some are only found during the manufacturing process. What you can do is: Contact the product designer -- they can help resolve the issues found during the manufacturing process. Shop for other designs from these these trending products! Email us at: service@shapeways.com for a full refund. Your continued satisfaction is our top priority. If you have questions, or if we can improve your Shapeways experience in any way possible, please email us at..." Do you know whats the problem? May be I can order it only at my own risk (i mean they cant give any guarantees on this part) Thanks

    It will be too heavy for 9398 chassis, since it is too detailed;) So build you own chassis. Or use existing one (with minor modifications) form Natanael's Pony car, for example. Awesome muscle! P.s.Moderators, give em LDD-builder tag:)

    Good performance and stability How did you stabilized axles (i see no pan-hard rods) And what is the advantages of using supsension arms instead 6L links?

    May be they fixed v2 to something like v2.5 that dont have any troubles with 2x M motors at 1 output? So there is no need now to mark it. Could you test it with buggy motor?

    Thanks Jim! Great surprise you have done!:) Am I right that distance between pivot point and axles is the same for front and rear axle?

    since we touched battry blocks here, I can say that i also have one big battrey box for AAA batteries with visible poor performance comparing to other BBs. This BB was bad from new opened set.

    Nico, I have the same issue with one of my LiPo's comparing to other with the same age. It not a very big problem, cause it only happens on heavy load: buggy motor with servo/stalled M motor while drifiting donuts. . Level of charging doesnot play a role. I will be glad if some could help to solve it.
