powerful rally car chassis
piterx replied to piterx's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
hmmm im using the v2 reciever...should i be aware of it? anyway as i added the body it started loosing performances....so to avoid stressing the rc motor too much im gonna use the second output...it will have the same performances that the Fiesta had -

oh nice! id like to have that piece too! personally i don't really like the servo...it's heavy and slow...even if i have to admit that is way more precise than the M motor :) ah...does it drift :P? -

ahah yeah i know...but i wanted to add something that the fiesta didn't have :P i'll add probably also openable doors ^^ -
Hey guys! Just wanted to show you the chassis of my next rally car The shock absorbers design i made for the Fiesta, worked greatly for this model.. thanks to that, I've reduced of one stud the front axle to have better proportions It has RTC steering and differential, and it has also rear suspensions As you can see, except for the front axle, the rest of the chassis is still rough....it's just a test ^^ as rm8 told me some weeks ago small models are way funnier than middle ones :D rm8 you was completely right

omg....dude, you made an excelent job and lego added that extra with those colors...i want that set so badly congratulations man! your review really caused hype in me

Ford Fiesta WRC
piterx replied to piterx's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
oh i apologize! i didn't introduce you Steve "The Victim" I would have done that too! but it was made mainly for performances so i had to cut away lot of things -
Hi there guys! I'm glad to introduce you my ford fiesta wrc wich has the following features: - New shock absorbers design - Macpherson suspensions strut - Lockable differential - Personalized vinyls - 2 RC motors - Motors saving differential My goal for this car was only one: DRIFT then i started thinking: "what car is known for drifts?" and the answer was only one THE KEN BLOCK'S CAR !!! So i started building this one trying to replicate those colors...then i wasn't so satisfied so i decided to print my own stickers.... I created a template (wich im gonna share soon) to paint vinyls on new panels and i'd say that im pretty happy now :) Let's talk about performances now: even if it weighs 860g it's still fast....doesn't have an amazing acceleration anymore but it still drifts on smooth surfaces expecially when the wheels lose some grip by collecting dust and it's pretty funny to drive! About the chassis: it's very simple and the weight is well distributed, to cause the most loss of grip to the rear wheels, by placing a battery in the front of the car... As every motor has its own battery and reciver i added a differential inbetween the two motors...you know, sometimes recivers can lose signal and i didn't want to get my motors damaged There's another differential that connects the wheels wich can be locked to cause narrower drifts... The new shock absorbers design (for those who didn't see one of my last posts where i was talking about that) is really simple....and even if i didn't use the spring taken from the lego one the dimensions are the same, so 100% purists can use it as well I hope you like it! stickers aviable here http://p-lego.blogsp...roduce-you.html they're in the A4 format so you just need to print the file above as it is (obviusly download the full res one by clicking to enlarge the picture ^^)

Stickers template?
piterx replied to piterx's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
yes i've already downloaded scans...the problem is that i'd like to have something precise...if it exists obviusly :D i need stickers for the new panels....like those that are in the 9398 :) -
Stickers template?
piterx replied to piterx's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
oh yeah you're right.... i need stickers for panels that are the only parts hard to measure :) -
Does someone of you have a template for stickers? I mean, im making my own stickers and it would be so nice having something with the right dimensions ready :D
