Sweet looking car Bjorn. And knowing what you built just adds to the WOW factor. Now I want to see the video of the look on peoples faces as you drive around town sitting in the passenger seat.... :Biggrin:
 
I have that same drive in a straight line problem with every remote control car I've ever tried to drive.... :boomcar::boomcar:
 
very kewl Bjorn and very impressed.... I can definitely see why you have bystanders saying.... WTF......
 
O.K guys, had my first TV program today for a interview and 'action' shots of the car. Hopefully they will make a nice showcase clip!

Will be aired in 1 or 2 weeks. SORRY....no clips yet!


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> TECH QUESTION!<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

During the demonstration, (got a bit overboard) many drift / slidings. When I wanted to drive home, I noticed that the brakes where 'stuck'
Clearly felt the car braking during release throttle. Stopt the car / Pumped the brakes couple time > Was pretty hard!
Let it alone for about 5 to 10 minutes. After that the brake was clear and didnt returned after a 'sporty' trip home.

NOW.....is this because of the heat expension of the discs + Pads???
 
Interesting question B21. The servo activating the brakes wasn't sticking? I would imagine the vettes brakes would be soft as opposed to sticking if too hot.

nope. I am proud to say, the remote system works great. I can precisely adjust the servo to the brake. I am now working on a double receiver system.
Incase receiver one malfunction, then you can still activate the brakes with another receiver
 
Next Level Upgrades!

Customized my controller with some extra buttons and something special in the bodem.

What it is? Another Transmitter! It controls the 2nd failsafe, of the 2nd servo for the brake / incase transmitter failure / servo failure
or receiver failure. This was not a easy design.

Whell...I believe I got everything corvered!

That is great B21! I didn't think it would be the servo, but I can't think of what would cause the brakes to stick so I had to ask. The only other thing I can think of is asking when the last time was the brake fluid's been changed?
