Posted October 22, 20195 yr This is a 1:8.3 scale Technic MOC car I am making powered by EV3. Things have been going well until I ran into some space issues with some Large Motors. I wanted them to be vertical, but they were too big, so I'm trying ways to get more space so the motors won't be very visible when I build the exterior. In the right picture, I positioned the motors at an angle to save space, however it may make the rear too long. The maximum room I have (according to blueprints) for the motors is 2.5 inches away from the rear wheels, so I need to save a lot of space or I have to expand the rear. All in all, I have to position the motors where they are not too high or not too far from the rear wheels. I'd thought I post this issue I have because I wonder if there is any other better way to do this. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice.
October 23, 20195 yr Author Finished. The motors are placed exactly where I wanted them, fitting the measurements of 4.7 inches tall and 2.6 inches long. Now I got to test the drivetrain, reinforce it, and get started on the aesthetics building, which make me kind of nervous. Wish me luck to get this done before 2020.
