RC Delorean time machine

"You've got that thing hooked up to the . . . car?"

2 tonnes of pure stainless steel....or is it 3 tonnes?

The only bit that I think you could do better on it at this scale, still amazing though.

Actually, if I remember correctly from a poster I had as a kid, it is quite light - about 1300 kg...

you win [1,230 kg (2,712 lb)] Not what I meant to say. I was told it weighed 3 or four tonnes, ah well. Next time I'll look it up. 1 bad thing about being full stainless construction, is the fact that the stainless tears. And the delorean in the movie was lucky if it could even get to 66 miles p/h

Oh yes. =)

3 or 4 tonnes ? hey, it's not a truck ^^ btw, the technic thing looks great on the wheels!

It may not be able to travel forward or backwards in time. But it does go 88 miles per decade! :P

I'm going to bet that it does, in fact, have the ability to travel forward in time. Backwards, however, not so much.

Nice work.

I just bought some Power Function today and am looking for all the amazing things that can be done with them. Some of the PF lights would look nice.

Legohaulic says:

^ Yeah...I wish I had some lights. I wanted to use some of my fiber optics to do a flux capacitor but there just wasn't enough room.

it would be much easier to see the creation were it photographed against any color but a washed out, white background.

This is very awesome, man!

Legohaulic says:

Joris: If you want to just order the PF elements themselves, the cheapest thing to do is to get it directly from Lego

In this, I used 2 of the M-Motors, 1 Battery Box, 1 IR receiver, and one IR remote.

That's really all you need to RC something. If you want to attach older motors to the PF stuff, you'll probably need a PF extension wire which has the old and new style connectors.
