dls7223685 Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone, this is the latest work of MTC lego studio:AZURA LMP2 Racing Car Designed by CrMo2001 Here are detailed introductions to this work: -Long 47,Wide 21 (Lego unit) -2 × “control+ L motors” for propulsion -1 × “control+ L motors” for steering -LEGO Bluetooth control module -Front and rear independent suspension -Technic parts build chassis, Brick parts build appearance When designing this car, there are two main points, one is the suspension, the other is the appearance. The size of CONTROL+ components is very large, while LMP racing car is very low, so the Bluetooth hub is put in the middle, the front bridge module is on the front side, the drive motor is placed on both sides, and the layout of the rear bridge module is on the rear side. Otherwise, the height will exceed the limit and the appearance production will be affected. In a real LMP car, the driver's seat is not centered but, by habit, left or right. So I put the driver's seat on the left and the steering motor on the right in a symmetrical position. The CONTROL motor has a built-in code disk, so the L motor can be used as a servo motor and can be customized with Powered UP. The motors on both sides drive the wheels on both sides respectively, and the transmission systems on both sides are independent. This also eliminates the differential. The power of the motor is first transmitted to the middle shaft through four 16-tooth gears, and then to the wheels. To prevent transmission interference, 16 teeth on both sides are staggered by 1 unit. For the design of the exterior, I pay more attention to the continuity of the lines of the vehicle. In some places, in order to better shape the curved surface, the Technic parts are used. Brick parts are not dominant in the construction of some complex curved surfaces, but cylindrical and flat surfaces are basically preferred.I made my first attempt to add a clear windshield to the MOC. The windshield comes from 76139 (1989 Bat Mobile), and a black printed vertical line in the middle is worn away. In practice, the windshield is slightly lower in height and the front is too steep. But I couldn't find a better one than to 3D print one. Here is a more detailed picture, hope you can enjoy it. The LMP race car has a drop-shaped cab, which I tried to recreate with Lego. Some airflow channels are left on the side. Front and rear The Building Insitructions will be released in the near future, so stay tuned! Thanks for browsing！Thank you！ Edited July 15, 2020 by dls7223685 Quote
mpj Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 it looks like a scale model, very difficult to recognize it is Lego! It is more a "model team" bodiwork, but I like the use of some technic panels. I like it very much! Quote
deraven Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Model Team look with some great functionality under the attractive shell - what's not to like? Very nice! Quote
TechnicRCRacer Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 You absolutely NAILED the shaping! Great use of the Batmobile windshield! So excited to see more Control+ MOCs. Quote
Qukie Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Wonderful LMP racer, simply stunning. and it's RC. Quote
Go-Kart Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) I love the Acura/Azura word play! (And the car) Edited July 16, 2020 by Go-Kart Quote
Vectormatic Posted July 17, 2020 Posted July 17, 2020 Amazing MOC, Creator Expert levels of body work (or even better considering some recent expert sets), with a fully capable technic chassis underneath Quote

Verodin Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 While I have nothing with racing cars in general, I have to admit I very much like this one and would like to build it someday. Do you have any video of it driving? I'd be very interested to see how it performs with the PU motors. Quote
1gor Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Great MOC with perfect shaping (and functionality is as it is supposed for a car) Quote
