I’ve made your Jeep Wrangler, Remote Co...Hi Sheepo,<br />I’ve made your Jeep Wrangler, Remote Control version.<br />Waouhh !! What a fantastic model ! The black & red body is so well designed and executed ! The Jeep Wrangler style & spirit are immediately identified, as well as the interior design of the car.<br />The entire assembly is rigid enough even though the body is just connected to its frame with 4 connecting pins; by the way these 4 pins make the body so easy to remove from its frame, this is so smart !<br />Functionalities as the doors, the bonnet, the trunk and the rear spare wheel switch work perfectly, as well as the suspensions and the V6 engine.<br />The 5+R gearbox is associated with so many realistic and complex modes: 2/4WD, low/high speed range, front and rear lockable differentials ! So far there is no official Lego model that gathers so many features in a single model.<br />I confirm that the model is very reliable. Each function is individually well controlled by its motor: the steering wheel works good as well as the gear sequential gearbox and the different modes. I added some indicators on the remote control to help understand the different driving modes.<br />However the main improvement I should mention is the way the car runs.<br />Out of the ground, the model in ones hands, it works as in your video: the wheels speed increases or decreases as changing the different speeds and driving modes.<br />But as soon as the car is on the ground, the torque is insufficient to move the car properly: the car doesn’t move on the low speed mode. It runs on the 4WD / High speed mode, with good results on the 3rd speed. I re-checked many times the gear assembly to make sure all gears run smoothly between each others and actually they do. I also made minor improvements to make mechanisms run even smoother.<br />But I think the ratio torque / weight is quite complex to manage => what do you think ?<br />Anyway I really appreciate the model ! A good point that each function is easy to disconnect from its power function. Therefore we can manually play with the model.<br />For information, I bought all parts on Bricklink, downloaded from the Rebrickable inventory, and power functions from the Lego shop.<br />In a few words, Thank you again Sheepo for your masterpiece and to share it ! Your model is now in my home :-)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588924350008419204.post-6749847102683652122018-08-13T22:52:30.454+02:002018-08-13T22:52:30.454+02:00Do I have to get the instructions for this or can ...Do I have to get the instructions for this or can I know how you lock your differentials?Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07951751963874105286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588924350008419204.post-88772167909079872572017-06-28T20:59:33.242+02:002017-06-28T20:59:33.242+02:00Hi, This Jeep as you think is much more slower tha...Hi, This Jeep as you think is much more slower than the Mercedes, the efficiency is a big problem with big cars. <br /><br />About new cars, I will not publish any new car soon. I have build many new MOCs(not big ones) in the last months but I don't know if I will publish them. I built them for me.Sheepohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08742524000822548224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588924350008419204.post-32907609519823469532017-06-27T18:05:45.458+02:002017-06-27T18:05:45.458+02:00Hi sheepo!

I was wondering beceause I have built it and it was surprisingly fast, but maybe this car isnt, beceause it weighs more and has more friction beceasuse of the many gears. second question: Is there any moc comming out soon? Im always very excited for a new car ;) Hoping for a response :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588924350008419204.post-88368204979891251302017-02-24T22:33:48.160+01:002017-02-24T22:33:48.160+01:00Will you update the "Sequential gearboxes fam...Will you update the "Sequential gearboxes family" page with this gearbox or will you not update the page at all?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588924350008419204.post-9517297491731908602017-01-14T00:40:34.628+01:002017-01-14T00:40:34.628+01:00Sadly hear that.
