Bump because the platform doesn't seem to like my images

Hello again everyone,

This is literally a bump because right now I noticed that for roughly around a week the platform is not displaying images in my submission description, making them feel incomplete and out of context walls of text, and I believe this is unfair that time is running out for my submissions while the platform experiences this kind of issue just for my account (or maybe other accounts).

I definitely did not remove the photos, nor did I use photos that are not in gallery in my description. Also the moderation team will usually prevent you from submitting description that feels incomplete like this and try to make you fix such issues before the submission goes live.

I hope you will get to read this update. Please check out the free instructions for this build on Rebrickable when you have time. Also comment if you have any ideas on what's happening with this whole situation or you are experiencing the same thing with your submission.

The fun never ends with Cyber Cruiser!

Hello again everyone!

Thank you all for your support.

First of all, I'd like to address what you have been often asking for, which is how is the rear axle connection with engine constructed and how does the bottom look like. Here are the photos you need to get the gist of it:

 

Secondly, since I have two units with Red Devil keeping intact the original construction of the model, I have started experimenting with the black unit. Take a look at what can be done with some mods:

And the the connection with engine still works with this kind of suspension. Maybe this could be an expert level B-model configuration? Who knows :)

This is done with some small rubber bands and this configuration forced removal of the steering wheel rotation, so there's a trade off. If you want to learn more about this kind of suspension, take a look at my channel.

The Red Devil enters the scene!

Hello again everyone!

Thank you all for your support.

As promised before, I made the red variant of the model - I call it The Red Devil - it's mostly red with some black accents fitting its name.

Here's a 360 degree video of both variants side by side:

Can you spot the differences in construction between both variants? Thinking about different variant or some tweaks to the model? Let me know in the comments!

Engine sound captured!

Hello everyone!

Thank you all for your support. I couldn't figure out how to capture the sound of the mini piston engine before submitting the idea, due to my phone capturing audio with some Doppler effect when the car was moving, which made it sound like gears skipping, but after popping up the engine cover it captures okay.

Also for those who didn't comment and who didn't look at the comments, I'm planning a red variant build - the chassis for it is already built and the red bricks and panels are on the way, should be here this week, so stay tuned to see that!
