A revision was made on Jan 9th, 2022. The front lights were covered by the nose flaps. This mistake was corrected. Everyone who had downloaded the file before this date may choose to replace it. :)

I noticed that the leeway of the front tires might be a bit limited, so that should be addressed. You'll have to cut big portions out of the fuselage in order to add the electronics. I'd recommend a larger scale, too, of course. If you need modified parts, call me. ;) :D

I'm going to build the card model as-is at first and then see what modifications I have to make. Zathros recommended I build a wood or plastic frame to hold the electronics and other components so I'm keeping that in mind. The size of the components are going to dictate whether or not I go up in scale, but from what I've seen from you pattern, that won't be much of an issue. I'll let you know if a need any modified parts. Thank you for your nice offer!

You are welcome! Your plan is sound. The tolerances of getting the both halves of the fuselage together may be a bit tight on the small one but things will get easier on any bigger one. The nose however might require some formers then. :)

Thank you! It's just a very basic version, not as wide as mine but it should do for a nice display. You may stretch it if you like, everything you need is there. ;)

HOWEVER, technically this model does not belong into the Science Fiction section but in the Vehicles section because it presents a real car. Ah well. I'll leave it up to you to decide where you put it! :) :drinksmile:
