One of the icons of USA cars the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon (JK), a real leyend still alive.
Complete instructions available HERE
It is built in scale 1/10. With an overall size of 23x52x25 studs(18x42x20 cm).
It weights 2.7Kgs, and has around 2700 parts
It is powered by 5 PF motors, 2 IR receivers and one PF AA battery.
- 2XL motors for drive
- M motor for steering
- M motor for sequential gearbox
- M motor for drive mode and range gearbox
Fully openable doors with bonnet and trunk.
The rear spare wheel is connected to the battery, so to turn ON/OFF the battery you only need to turn slightly the wheel one or other side.
V6 fake engine and complete interior with working stering wheel.
As usual 5+R speeds sequential gearbox (4th GEN).
2-speeds range gearbox and 2WD/4WD modes. Also its has an important feature of the Rubicons versions: lockeable front and rear differenfials.
Realistic drive modes, you can select sequentialy between 4 drive modes: 2H, 4H, 4L and 4L with lock diff.
I know many people like the Wrangler looks more extreme, for them I have built a second pair of axles. They include portal hubs and an extra 3:1 gear reduction.
They also add 2 studs high and 2 studs wide of each side
Important note: even with trial axles this car is not a Trial Truck, you can not expect Trial Truck off-road capabilities...
Also this time I release at the same time the Manual version. It has the same functions of the RC version, including 5+R speeds manual gearbox(instead of sequential), 2 speeds range gearbox, 2WD/4WD modes and lockeable differentials.
As always finally complete video:
