It sure did, carbon fibre dust. I changed the gearing to fix that.

Hi, I managed to destroy Cada carbon fibre axles, i thought you guys might appreciate the pictures; lesson to be learned, 4 Pro L motors driving the same axle without gear reduction is not a good idea.

Hi, I made a couple of alterations/improvments that i would like to share. The Stud.io files are in my Bricksafe - original Buwizz modification - two buwizz3 and 4 L-motors (Cada in my case) - two buwizz3, 4 L-motors and a wider body to have a lower center of gravity and less friction in the drive train. (WIP) I also cleaned up some of the body work to accomodate bigger wheels.

Fun it is for sure, any faster and it would be very hard to control.

I made an offroad video, what do you think @Didumos69 ?

Thanks

Hi, I downloaded the app and the buwizz extension. However the motors take about a second to react to input from the control or controller, also the motors do not run at the same time, it looks like they all go in series. Is this a known issue? could not find anything about it. I have 2 buwizz3 with 4 PF-L-motor and a PU servo connected. Thanks in advance!

Even with grease they do not rotate all that well, and no the PU servo is not really better, controlling this with a smartphone while trying to film at the same time is also not very easy. But if you have only buwizz3 with 4 PF outlets you kinda have to use a PU servo. That mounting on the turntable does not work for Porsche rims, which was my ultimate goal.

The turntables give a lot of friction, i gathered that removing them would increase the speed and save some weight. But having no way of measuring it i do not know if it actually did, the CADA motors in theory output ~2 times the power of the regular motors, so the best way to test if it really helps would be to install the turntable hubs. The motors and buwizz 3 and PU servo alone would be an upgrade, don't you think? I actually came up with this idea because of another car i am working on with porsche rims, the turntables are not very wel mountable with those. That works good, so i decided to test it with the greyhound, since i had all the parts laying around.

I used carbon fibre axles at the end, superglued to a metal universal joint in front and an axle connector in the back. They grip well on plastic, i just added some superglue to the axles that did not grip well, let it dry and it grips fantasticly.

I did an upgrade of the Greyhound, it appears to be faster than the original one, i have no way of measuring it though. 2 x Buwizz 3.0 PU Servo 4 x Cada Pro L motor Redesigned wheel hubs without turntables (some) Superglue Would you like to know more?

I found something under the dust and decided to give it another go. Made some changes and improvements and it drives quite well, i have added pictures and the design to my Bricksafe I can make a video if anyone is interested.

Please derail, i consider this more of the same interesting stuff.

Thanks for the help!

I see, i was thinking about it the wrong way. Power takeoff can be off any axle or gear? Thanks for the response.
