Very nice trucks... Is there any space for making an RC versions of them? And what is the total weight of each truck? Hope to see more content like this one from you ;-) Also, are you going to make more types of trailers?

Hello everyone! Im very glad to show my RC Porsche 911 RSR. As always, story begins far far in the past... My childhood dream was to get an RC car... Some time ago I shared with you a Corvette RC mod, and that was the "first step" in my dream coming true! In that project I understood, that a lego car can go a decent speed especially with the Buwizz 2.0. BUT... But the speed uncovered a another problem, that is the lack of control! Lego bricks have too much wobbling... Searching for the solution of this problem in the internet I found several buggy projects with technic bricks that has a positive caster... Ant I instantly understood that the positive caster is the thing I need in my car. Also, I was struggling a lot with gigantic scrab-radius. But in that time all rims produced by lego was symmetric. Finally, the Land-rover set has arrived... And the new rims give me some hope... Now I was going to build a 1:10 scale car. But the Land-rover set itself was a bad candidate for motorization due to it`s mass and a wobbly chassis. Due to the lack of skills in bodywork I decided to modify the lego set. I choose a Porsche 911 RSR set for my needs. One would ask me: why you call this RC mod a MOC? Well, the cassis of lego sets are totally inappropriate for making RC cars - most of them are too wobbly and weak. Moreover I wanted to build a positive caster. So I decided to build a custom RC chassis that will for to the bodywork of the initial lego set. Here is a front suspension. Yeah, that is my first "finished" chassis with suspension. Do you see some unusual ideas? I managed to build a double steering arms in order to make the steering system stronger. Moreover, I made a double steering rack steered with a single gear... On the back I decoded to build a live axle with motors connected directly to wheels: no friction on gears, no weak universal joins... I used the original instructions to check the dimensions! Here you can see the finished chassis - nothing special! I placed several smaller wheels for comparison. I would like to mention, that my first RC car was build with the smallest wheels (the very right wheel on the photo). The main reason why I build a car with small wheels was the lack of power the lego motors have (as I thought back then I was at the very beginning of my lego technic build experience). The main question for now: will the motors have enough power to move this big chassis? I made the first drive, and the car really goes well! Unfortunately I did not make a video, but it was going about 7-8 km/h - that was not a bad speed comparing to the 9398. After finishing the chassis I started the bodywork. Then I build front and back parts of the body (with a lot of changes from the original) I decided that it would be great to have a single body-unit that sits on the chassis on several attachment points. And this is the result: The main reason why I build a detachable body is because I was going to make modifications of chassis! Hope you like my post and the car ;-) Feel free to comment on technical aspects. P.S. one fan fact about this car: this RC car has only one gear! - sounds crazy, isn`t it,

Very nice! I haven't seen any 4WD drift cars on such small wheel! And what is the total weight of a finished model?

Very nice project. Lowered car is 10 times better that the original one! The next step will be the roof height improvement - it is too high in the original build (copper it with your picture of a real car). Since the lego set is not a licensed set (ford or Chevrolet etc.) I hope there will be more projects of this kind by changing the original set to the real cars... But there will be a problem with finding parts in this color... (I do not know a lot about it since im building technic myself)

Very nice build! The new wheel arches helps a lot I suppose. And why did you made the wheels with old rims? The new rims will improve the scrap radius, and this really means a lot since you have an RC car?

This steering system fixes the wheel axle in the hub for the length of 2 studs. That helps a lot with stability, but... the scrap radios is too big, since I did not figured out how to make the steering point next to the wheel. The improved version of this idea you can find in my other build (RC mod of Chevrolet Corvette). This car has no differential, since I had non of those at that time... But if there was one available, it would not fit to the rear axle since its bigger diameter is as big as the diameter of wheels! Gear ratio solves the problem of big wheels only by half. If I lower the motor with gear combination I will loose a lot of power with friction! And even if I lower the speed, all plastic axes and gears will struggle with big torque!...

Sorry, video Is impossible now, since I finished this project on the past and did not film in back when. The axles are sticking out since these are 6.5-long axes and these are the only one that have stops at the "middle" of an axle. I made the wheel hubs in such a way, that the wheel axle is fixed in it.

Here is the smallest fake-engines I was able to build! Of course one can build a smaller motors, but they would not look that solid!

Hello everyone, today I will tell you a sad story about my first attempts in lego technic RC. Lego technic set 9398 was my dream since I like really like both RC cars and lego. And then I get one I was totally disappointed! 9398 set was a slow turtle that stops in front of any "decent" obstacle. At first, I tried to deal this problem by changing gears and it gives a result, but the car became a super-slow turtle... After that I decided to motorize a 42029 Pick up set with motors from 9398 set, but the car had not enough power as well... The wheel were too big and heavy for two motors... (at least I thought that in my early days). Finally I understood that the smaller wheels car has, the easier it will be for motors to move the car... And I decided to build a car with the smallest wheels possible! The car is assembled form the 3 sections: front wheels with steering rack, rear axle and the middle part with all the motors emplaced. Technical specs: 1 steering with servo-motor 2 propulsion with L-motor 3 PF battery box and receiver Here you likes it... This is my first "finished" motorized technic MOC !

Hello everyone, in this post I want to tell you about my motorization project I completed about 2 years ago. The set 42093 brings the wheels to the technic community. I always wanted to build an RC car with lego bricks but I had no experience neither in bodywork nor in building RC chassis, so this project was my second "successful" attempt. Technical specs: 1 steering with Servo-motor 2 propulsion with 2 L-motors 3 powered by Buwizz 2.0 I also made some improvements in bodywork. Enjoy the build! As you can see, I improved the roof by making a higher A-pillars and adding grey arches on the sides.

Hello everyone, my name is Daniel and im a Lego fan from Saint-Petersburg! I'm actually a technic-builder and more specifically I build RC technic cars.. Here is an example!
