Hi, Here is my latest MOC (still WIP). It is the Alfa Romeo 4C spider and is the first supercar that I built since I came back from my dark ages. It has the following features: Motorized (using a large BB): - drive (L-motor) + V4 fake engine - steer (servo) - select gear (M-motor) - seats (L-motor) With the gear selector you can select between 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear. At the same time you also select one of the four seat functions (seat forward/backward and tilt of the back of the seat). These functions are driven by the second L-motor and all have a clutch to prevent motor stalling. It features full indepedent suspension (double wishbone at the front and McPherson at the back) The steering has Ackermann, kingpin inclination and caster angle. All doors are openable, hood & trunk as well. The model is quite stiff, you can lift it by the handlebar without any issue. In fact the center of gravity is right below the handlebar, so it is even very convenient to lift the model that way. I was building this already for some time when the TC6 came along and since this model fits all the requirements I may decide to enter. However it is not working perfect yet The gear selector has a 10% succesrate, so that will require some tinkering. Furthermore the red wheelhubs should be white, but I am not prepared to pay 10$ a piece for them. Especially since they will become available in white within a few months. All the other white soft axles are 12L. And for the ones with attention with detail: the right headlight is at a wrong angle, that is because the piece was bent. I am hoping LEGO can provide a replacement for that one. Since this is the first MOC in a long time where styling is actually a big part of the package I would like to invite you to give feedback on that aspect in particular. Enough talking for now, here is a photo (more will follow later, but I'd first like to sort out my gearselector issue): And the best wishes for the new year of course
