After a half year of work I present you this bus.
The goal was to make as functional bus as possible with least amount of motors.
The result is fully RC bus with openable doors, propulsions and steering using only 3 motors. 

The steering angle is really good. Steered by Large angular motor
Propulsion uses XL-motor
Doors work smoothly & flawlessly. They are powered by L-motor
Powered by C+ hub.
Lots of interion & exerior details.

Steering angle is really good.

Doesn't look as 2000 parts, looks like less. And good placement of battery.

Well done, all the functions work flawlessly! Thanks for sharing!

Is this modelled after a specific type of bus?

And the PU cables are visible/distracting, is it possible to make this more clean? If they are long enough...

Very nice, I love how smooth and realistic the door operation is. Though I agree with the above, it would be good to have the cables hidden better.

The bulge of the battery box reminds me of the natural gas-driven buses around where I live.

Thanks. 1964 parts according to the 3d model.

Low-entry urban 9m bus.

They're just too short. I even had to adjust the position of the hub to meke them reach all motors.

That was actually the goal.
