  1. Edited, I missunderstand that having a chassis photo in the WIP topic was enough.
  2. Locking differential woould just damage the CV joints. I highly doubt we will ever see a 4kg heavy model from lego with locking diffs.
  3. I noticed the same behaviour. I think it's safer for gears to be chewed up than to fragment and fly away.
  4. Nice idea with transverse engine, but...your axle is too wide.
  5. There is no advantage of using diffs to couple motors. Technically speaking 9398, 41999 and 42099 have hard coupled drive motors too, with each being on their axles, yet coupled via ground and wheels. With such big and heavy projects keep it as simple as possible. Have every motor drive the tracks in front and rear with minimum amount of gears as possible.
  6. Well done! It's interesting that the rims, though less curvy do actually look good on race cars too.
  7. Norhing is stopping you from I dunno... Trying to build something for yourself?
  8. Thanks for all the praise, everyone. Enjoy the video of the muscle car in action:
  9. 6. Miniature Muscle car A blast from the past with the following functions and features: Independent double wishbone suspension in the front Driven solid rear axle Working steering wheel Fake V8 engine 4 speed gearbox Openable doors and hood Foldable roof Detailed engine bay
  10. The reason for the notch is for moulding. The notch allows the pin's ridges to click in...
  11. Claas Xerions uses an M motor, not a servo?
  12. My suggestion. Take it apart, wash the parts and put it back together.
  13. Agreed in all points. Well done, now hope to see it IRL!
  14. Incredible! The bodywork is so detailed, smooth and flowing, a real inspiration! You inspired me to try building more scale models and to improve my (severely) lacking aestethic skills. EDIT: Featured the topic
  15. That 7L grey beam looks misplaced, I'm 99% sure it should be a stud higher, holding the engine.
  16. What I noticed: Two rubberbands used in the gearbox - one for the 90°selector and the other one to drive the V4 engine from the gearbox output to the crankshaft. The new long shock absorbers have additional mounting holes compared to the old ones. it's also interesting that they are made out of smaller seperate parts. Rear tyre is a new element - I imagine using two rims like in the harley wouldn't look as good, and they couldn't use the Chiron's brake discs We are getting pin joiners in dark metal color.
  17. Please post the deeplinks, we can't see these photos until they are moderated.
  18. Might be off topic, but I find this info very enlightening. Maybe you could make a new topic to talk more in detail?
  19. Found a nice spot to take pictures and video of the finished model: Also made a couple of gifs of the motorized functions: More details in the video: Overall I'm quite pleased with the finished car. Even though it's not perfect it is miles ahead of my last supercar. It has a few aesthetic issues, such as the front end and blocky look at certain spots. Having said but I'm going to keep as it is and use it as a reference for my next supercar. I'm thinking of a large scale muscle car UTE, or an updated version of 8466 - 8466 Neo.
  20. Indeed, I posted a wrong link. Here is the correct link to the .io file: https://bricksafe.com/files/Zblj/tiger-4x4x4/Tiger 4x4x4(1)_Copy.io
  21. Depends on the gear. But it runs smoother than the Chiron in my experience.
  22. That's the idea for the next model
