Cadillac Fleetwood Lowrider 1/25 Radio Control

[@evileyes2268]

Jevries!!! You just won't be happy until you can turn a key inside of your model cars and they start up, will you? Excellent work, man. Excellent work.

[@jevries]

That would be the ultimate! Thanks for the props!

[@LOWRIDE74]

Jevries you are a genius your works always blow my mind man keep up the good work ElMonte74' from LIL

[@weaponexican]

Hey Jevries any chance you got a DIY on this axle. I was tring to buy an of the shelf 1/24 axle but theyre too wide for the body.

[@jevries]

Whatup? Please check for Orlandoo 1/35 rear axles on Aliexpress. They sell them in different widths.

[@weaponexican]

@@jevries thanks OG. I was actually looking at those. I appreciate the quick response.

[@2low2rl]

@jevries YES! please do! all i want to know is what you use to make the cylinders.

[@jevries]

@utimag Thanx Mike! Did you finish that Caddy?

[@jevries]

@KantongWockstar2 Yes, I made the U-joint using brass parts and a paper clip to hold the two pieces together. I use a 4 channel GWS micro receiver modified to 8 channels. They use the same chip on both the 4 and 8 channel version only that one is way bigger. It's an FM receiver I recently bought 2.4Ghz equipment that offers me more functionality.

[@nicklynch3012]

Love the projects... Any of them for sale?

[@jevries]

Thanks for all your replies, appreciate it!

[@Rookiesteam]

Yup.. Now that´s what I´m talking about.. I saw it in action following your link on the description. just a sweet RC low rider, even with lights !! amazing job my friend!!

[@jevries]

Mainly because I love what I create and don't want to sell something I enjoy so much. I only finish a model every once a year, don't have a lot of time or I'm distracted working on other stuff.

[@Michaellomeli9]

Bad ass thats asome how u made the drive shaft turn the wheels

[@justsomejackassery]

That's really nice work, I dig the slip joint drive line and the universal joint. What gears are in the rear, standard ring and pinion?

[@jevries]

+Michael Raphael Thanks! two micro bevel gears are inside the gear housing. This ride is finished and has full chrome suspension and drivetrain.

[@flaviosantos2034]

Oque é isso!! Irmão ficou muito...fabuloso,nunca vi igual,e o diferencial show!!!

[@youdontsaythatovahea]

Dam that's legit I like the drivetrain how did you do that with the differential and drive shaft

[@jevries]

@DrifterX360 Suspension is scratch build using modified micro servos, allu tubing and brass beams.

[@thaslabdriver84]

Working drive shaft! Wow amazing!

[@bishop10akey]

So wat makes the hydro work so realistic. I notice that you never showed the other side of the frame.

[@utimag]

Na J not yet bro working on the interior for it have a couple other projects im working on at the same time as the caddy but my offer still stands J if you would like your caddy like mine I'll be happy to do it bro. Peace utimag!!!

[@elperuanno]

Did you finish the one ? I love fleetwoods

[@wordreet]

Super job man! That reminds me of the original Tamiya RC model cars like Sand Scorcher wit htheir brass UJs and everything. Excellent! Just the wheels to true up and she's perfect. A hobby lathe could do the job. If the wheel is set into the lathe chuck so it doesn't wobble, the center can be slowly reamed out with a carbide reamer or bored with a lathe boring tool. I don't recommend a drill as this can easily grab into the plastic and pull the wheel out of line. Then you can push or glue in a solid plastic rod and re-drill the original hole size. That should give you true spinning wheels. I would offer to do it for you, but I'm in the UK, so it might be a bit expensive with the shipping.

[@jevries]

+wordreet Thanks!! The 1/25 scale resin cast wheels are a nightmare to get right, wobble free that is. I finished this model last year and the wheels don't wobble as much but still too much for my taste. I will def try the reamer!

[@wordreet]

jevries A standard machining reamer has a slight spiral forwards flute which is perfect as it pushed the cut material forwards into the hole and, obviously, puts a small amount of working pressure against the lathe chuck. Plastic parts notoriously difficult to re-machine as they want to move around, due to not being a perfect shape for the chuck jaws. So, ideally, you would turn some soft jaws to match the diameter and steps in the wheel. (soft jaws just means mild steel)

[@rayshawnveazey326]

jevries how do it cost have one made

[@ArturoM209]

Bro, what axles and drive shaft are you using?

[@Rookiesteam]

Great one !!.. Do you have a video of that car running and moveing with the hidraulics ?

[@magodevofficial]

show, i love lowriders

[@2low2rl]

Please reveal your secrets and post a video of the micro servos. I have an actual 98 town car running 3 pumps and 8 batteries and would still build a model for old times sake just to build one of these.

[@jaystrongwater8029]

Sick!! **For anyone who wants to know he's gonna be putting a tutorial together later this year**

[@sniper368434343]

Hey how are your hydraulics so realistic can you make a tutorial on how to make them........and a better quality vid of the hotwheels hopper

[@bishop10akey]

@ jevries can you show a demonstration of the inside setup?

[@getlow1985]

Awesome work!

[@jevries]

@2low2rl We are working on redoing the Jevries website including How to's.

[@torresbpxlife]

Where do you buy your parts if you don't mind sharing, like the driving shafts, differential, servors, and does the bottom of the car has to be design to build a low rider, or it can be any hobby car that they sale on ebay, or other websites? Thanks and I hope to hear from you

[@jevries]

Hi, I used the regular model kit chassis and modified it. Drive shaft, rear axle, suspension are all made from scratch. Servos I use Turnigy 1440 on this build.

[@bboyzdravko]

[@takumifujiwara124]
