Popular Post loxlego Posted December 28, 2016 Popular Post Posted December 28, 2016 For my final post of this year, I am proud to introduce the Range Rover Evoque with air ride. The car was too black so I added white, it was too low so I raised it a stud and the hood wasn't slanted enough so I re-created the front of the vehicle. I reduced the weight to 6.3 pounds (2850g) The car functions really well, I highly suggest using an S-brick for this car as the receivers are hidden behind the seats. This car has 4wd, air ride, torsion bar suspension, 2 XL motors for drive, 2 m motors for lift, V8, servo for steering, gear shifter turns on the lights. The car is finally to a perfect scale. The hard parts of this build was the air ride, torsion bar and having the doors start low at the front and higher at the back. I bought a pair of custom chrome exhaust pipes for this built. flickr: https://flickr.com/photos/139930963@N04/sets/72157676733470861 MOC-Pages: http://moc-pages.com/moc.php/435565 Below is the car in comparison to the 42052 helicopter set Air ride Range Rover Evoque by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Back end was super difficult: Air ride Range Rover Evoque by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Everything opens: Air ride Range Rover Evoque by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Interior: Air ride Range Rover Evoque by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Top view: Air ride Range Rover Evoque by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Air ride Range Rover Evoque by lachlan cameron, on Flickr I'm ready to take my helicopter to work...

loxlego Posted January 3, 2017 Author Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) So I blew up my IR receiver trying to film this edit. I knew it was toast when it started to smell like burning. I had to get my Bro's Sbrick to make this a proper edit! I HAVE to purchase an S-brick. Anyway, I tried to show a variety of driving tests with this 4wd air ride SUV. Enjoy!
