Posted May 14, 20231 yr After a lot of people downloaded my 3 wheeler V8 alternate build of doms charger, I thought i'd keep it on three wheels and build a reliant robin. Powered by BuWizz 2.0 and BuWizz motor, although the gearing pictured will change to 1:1 as I keep tripping the overload thermistor. It's amazing fun, and will very likely tip over if you're not careful! Despite putting stabiliser wheels on it, it still flips over... Free instructions coming on Rebrickable, as well as a proper full length youtube video now I have a proper tripod. # Edited May 14, 20231 yr by EvilEnderman
May 16, 20231 yr Author https://bricksafe.com/pages/Ender/reliant-robin-evening-shoot New photos taken in some sunset lighting. Instructions should be online by Sunday. Edited May 16, 20231 yr by EvilEnderman
May 16, 20231 yr I love it so much! After watching the Top Gear video a while back I had the idea too of "BuWizz Reliant Robin Mayhem." Can't wait for instructions so I could build my own!
May 17, 20231 yr Looks so much fun! Few years ago i tried to do this too, chassis was ready but i never finished the body. Now only thing that is missing is Clarkson figure
May 17, 20231 yr Love this although personally I think it'd look better in a different colour. My parents had a Supervan III for 4-5 years and they only got rid of it because it had gotten increasingly difficult for my brother and I to fit in the back . Edited May 17, 20231 yr by grum64

I plan to do a trotter's traders Reliant Regal mod of this at some point, just got to order a bunch more yellow panels. 3 hours ago, vergogneless said: What is the next project? I've been tempted to make a Bedford pickup or a japanese Kei truck for a while...
May 20, 20231 yr Author Instructions out on Rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-149133/EvilEnderman/rc-reliant-robin-buwizz/#details Inventory doesn't include BuWizz. Does anyone know if there's a proper .dat model of a BuWizz somewhere on this forum? I made a very crude version using PartDesigner to illustrate the concept, but it doesn't look quite right.
May 21, 20231 yr Cool and fun car. You could do a Reliant Bond Bug. He doesn't look as cool, but just as clumsy as the Reliant Robin. Edited May 23, 20231 yr by SUPER Max Black
