oh, may be, so differential is possible? -

Rear blue soft axle is 11 or 12. Roof pillar black axle is 14 or 16. Look at the right rear wheel. It is connected with brown axle. All brown axles are with stop. In the model stop end is inside, and you can't insert such axle in differential. So....model is driven only rear left wheel. It is 4x1 ultimate track car without differential. Enjoy the technic, authenticity. Build for real -

I think steering gear is removed on the box for better look. In fact, it is easy removable on the model -
...and my project is more like Sheepo's car. Keep up the good work

little update Whole video is long and in russian Language. Of course you can try read autotranslated subtitiles to know some insides about building such cars, troubles we had "GEAR SIGN"=>SUBTITILES=>RUSSIAN (auto generated) Then again "GEAR SIGN"=>SUBTITILES=>TRNSLATE=>choose langauge If you want just action, watch time 0:47 PAIR RICE RACE next video will be about Nissan SX180 only, including blue drift version with "Black L motors" in case you want more photos of Nissan

You told that body is your design, but from outside it looks similar to Sheepo’s. Whats the difference? I tell it because i have built it some years ago...I did a lot of improvements, including longer body, bonnet...but it is still Sheepo’s, can’t name it “my design”??♂️ So it is fair to call it MOD, btw its a very good mod. https://vk.com/album177639081_232510236

thnak you. This solution was already tested with Greyhound Hello, yes. We live in neigbourg cities (300 km) and decided to try some kind of competition. Well, it was cool, so we will repeat it again, since I have no time for testing my model, so I have problem with self centering (weared steering module) so challenge was not fair. I was inspired by Toyota Ae86 TRD bodykit, but I was short in time, so I build it by my own. In fact, only fenders are similar. Which modified parts do you mean? I have no modified parts in Toyota, but Nissan may be... Levin Ae111 was my first car. Silvia S15 is most beautiful car in my list, but too complex shapes...was close to buy it...but instead I met my wife?. may be one day I can built it, cause there is no stock S15 left on our market, only "racers" and expensive showcars thank you Chinese BM are good for its price, but you need to know something - I know many pepole who burned them, as I know when voltage was little bit higher than 9V. Better let @desert752 say some words about them - he maded compare tests. with RC Brick goal was to improve control of LEGO cars and make possible to use cheaper LiPO power sources and more Amperage power for multi-motor models. All existing touchscreen controllers (buwizz sbrick) are not-good for fast model even with joysticks connected...

Hi, This is my new Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 Time Attack machine that was built out for challenge with my LEGO-mate and his Nissan SX180 with the same config. Performance is high because of custom remote control and power system. Buying parts and building will cost a lot more than buying proper RC Touring/drift car for play needs. - RC-Brick adapter to control LEGO motors with RC proportional RADIO remote. Custom, limited production by russian enthusiast. Can handle up to 4 buggy motors, but usually such consumption melt platic connectors... - 3S LiPo battery with voltage stabilized on 11,4V Motors are original LEGO - 2x LEGO Buggy motors for rear wheel drive - 1x LEGO PF Servo motor for steering RC adapter is prototype, but group of our fans working on better version, that you can purchase later. I will let you know. Model has front independent suspension based on 8475 RC Racers steering and suspension module. That module is self centering with heavy duty suspenison arms and big steering angle. Rear suspension is live axle with drive motors installed on axle. Body is not 1-piece removable, but separate panels connected to cage frame chassis. More photos https://vk.com/album177639081_275561985 In the next episodes I will show you more content with another car - Nissan SX180 as contender (author is not me, https://www.instagram.com/gears_of_doctor/) , and detailed reivew (on russian language, but subtitiles translation possible)

Hello, One of my favourite models from Madoka from 2013. It is simple (not complex as his latest models) - that's what I love most of all. It is fast to build, fun to play and easy to rebuild. Also a very good MOC to build for starters: you will learn how to build simple awd transmission and also advanced body design, not simple "flat box" (every novice pass this stage?) So, my plan was to redesign external body elements, that can be easily removed and attached again: bumpers. bonnet, arches. It was easy, because model is simple and than elements are easy to remove. Again latest complex models are harder to mod. As you can see, I can't handle myself, and choose realsistic RC wheels, because LEGO doesn't fit design... Also there is a video with test drive outdoor and indoor with all comments and review in russian, but as always in browser you can choose russian subtitiles and then turn on auto-tranalstion to any laguage on the fly.

Drift chassis question
rm8 replied to Mechbuilds's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Use 2 pcs 1x2 thin liftarms in rear diff instead 12 bewel gears (yeah it is legal and work ok), or use new 28 tooth gear instead rear diff -
Drift chassis question
rm8 replied to Mechbuilds's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
If you want to do a donuts, listen to guys who tells you about rwd. To control rwd drift car you need quick and accurate thrust and steering control, thats is kind of fairy tale in LEGO, right?? so, you need awd without center differential, with free open front diff and locked rear. Steering angle should be as large, as possible. Suspension is not needed, cause it is extra weight, and practically no pros for lego drift. I am the rare one who tested a lot of drifting machines form lego, check this out there is a lot theory based on lego practice in both videos below. But to understand you need to: 1. Know russian 2. Turn on russian titles and then turn on auto-translation them to any language (in browser only) Also try RC drift wheels instead lego plastic wheels or even tape covered rubber ones. Rc wheels look good, slide well even with low power, and also have good offset to use them on you front cardan-powered steering knuckles with large pivot point offset My friend is crazy on drifting lego https://vk.com/club193057769 We use buggy motors from 1 to 4 pcs. From Buwizz power to 2s/3s lipo and custom made RC adapter for RC remote controls. But drifitng with touch screen using buwizz is also possible. -
Do you have any function work video? Yes, "wow-look", but it's only just a big technic crane sculpture, unless you can show that it work like Technic. btw. Red is you favourite color, as I see, including all your shoes...

42113 Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey
rm8 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
cars kill perdestrian! forklift use to lift ammo crates in military bases! forest harvester is the reason of glaobal heating! Batmobile and James Bond with machineguns, wTF? W12 bugatti, HOW much CO2 it produces? How could they??? ...... I am not racist, and that's not a joke, but according to last trends, will we see more black skinned minifigures in LEGO city next year? Please understand me right, I just wanna tell: I can find reason to CACNEL any set becase of any kind of "tolerance" Rip 42113. You was sacrificed for sins -
[MOC] Trophy Truck

Very nice model, except XL motor))) But that's not your fault))) -
Well, if author will do that final, I sure you will know it first)) good question)))) I am just transferring feedback from those who have real practice with 4x

Hello It is cusom made RC adapter by our russian enthusiast, not a serial product (not sure if he will be able to finish it, because can't guarantee quality of chinese elements). For example, this model is controlled by RC Brick. It work both with 2S and 3S. 3S voltage is high for PF SERVO, so no gurantee it will not burn, but we are risky guys here. RC Brick has only 2 channels, and can handle up to 4x LEGO Buggy motor, BUT, after long runs all LEGO connectors and wires to Buggy motors become HOT, and even can be damaged. So, we found a cheat to distrubite the heat using LONG 50 cm wires, and using doubled or more LEGO extension wires. But it is only for real crazy petrolheads))) Example with 4 motors (14:36) 1x buggy motor overall, it is safe comfort to use up to 2x buggy or other PF motors without overheating It also very useful to control model by one hand with RADIO remote and to hold camera with other like here (BUWIZZ LDCR as power, XL + SERVO, RC-Brick to control)
