Jumpin Car

3,163 Potkuri  7.1 years ago

I wanted to building a car which can be controlled mid-air. It works alright but it turned out to be quite difficult to make the car withstand harder landings.

Operating instructions:

VTOL - Throttle
Roll - steering
Roll/Pitch - mid-air control

    @Potkuri ok buddy. Well the good thing about car engines is the tourqe on modded engine are still low it only effects total speed.

    Thanks for the offer @landspeedcreator! I'll consider a modded engine when I come up with a vehicle that can benefit from the extra power without breaking up :)

    Do you want me to mod the engine? Let me know what power you want.

    @Potkuri yea suspensions are fun to mess with but they're a bit difficult to use on mobile, especially when modded and i usually just give up when nothing goes into place 😂

    Nice you like it! I already started experimenting with another suspension design for the front end, hoping to make it more robust. @KeX0609

    This one had (concealed) wings at some point in development. Even wings would provide softer landings I thought leaving them would make this car a little less a car. It's the same thing with engine power: if I needed more I would need to use plane engines (or mod but I can't do that). @Oni789

    Good idea! I once had an idea of building a car with wings and without plane engines.
