Lox Lego Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) Another MOC built with my bro :) I had some difficulty in creating a working scissor door for my car and wanted to share the design. With this design it seems you could motorize the doors as well. custom scissor doors! ;) Edited February 26, 2016 by Lox Lego Quote
Leonardo da Bricki Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Looks pretty good! Can we see a shot of the underside, and maybe some specifics about the power functions? Quote

Hi, see below for the underside. The power functions are 1 servo for steering, 1 L-motor for the drive, 1 m-motor for the transmission, 2 sets of power function lights (front and rear), 2 IR receivers.

THERIZE Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 nice. I really like how low the car is and the 4 speed transmission is cool! Quote
Meatman Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 I think the hinges that your doors opens on need relocated. The door is moving, but it doesn't appear that it is realistically moving out of the way enough for a passenger or driver to actually get inside. I would also scrap the engine in the back. You said that it is only there for appearance, but unfortunately that appearance looks very strange with it sticking out like that. Also with the gearbox, how do you get it to stop on the exact gear that you want without it moving too far? I think I've seen that before, but not sure where. Other than those few things, it's not too bad at all. Quote
agrof Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) I agree with the door issue, but the mechanics behind is interesting. Also I see a lot improvement here compared to Your Porsche! Actually I like the design. Great work! Edited February 26, 2016 by agrof Quote

Regarding the Gearbox, you simply wait for 2 clicks and the engine is in gear again. The first click releases the gear, the second engages. Edited February 26, 2016 by Lox Lego Quote
