My XV-01

[lucadoc]

After reading turtle's XV-01 thread, I decided to build my own Lancia Delta.

It will be a mixed on/off road with two kind of bodies.

I have all the pieces (I hope) and I slowly started the building.

For the moment I'm at the slipper clutch stage :

Hello,

I stopped the build for the moment I have to find the "inspiration" [emoji28]

I already know that a big headache is waiting for me when I'll have to put electronics in it.

Update : after changing the position of the engine and successfully tested the electronics (which gave me a headache [emoji856]), I mounted the wheels on the chassis and made a little driving test.

Unfortunately I cannot understand why the car behaves like a traction, I have 0.001% propulsion on the rear axle.

I checked the belt and the pulleys and everything seems OK, but as soon as there is any resistance (just a finger on the rear tires) I have no power in the back.

Do you have any hints?

I thought of a big difference of oil in the gears of the differentials (I forgot the references but basically more dense in the front)

Sounds like there is a cross pin missing somewhere.....

I'll try to open the rear differential... [emoji29]

OP you're off to a good start, looking forward to more rally goodness!

Yes, cross pin, spider gear, shim....something's not proper inside the differential.

I found: the two pulleys tended to get loose because I had not pressed the two plastic pieces NN24 and 13 enough (it was so hard that I thought I'd break them).

Thus there was no place to properly insert the circlip in his seat: as there was traction the exagon of the pulley came out of the small iron pin BA and therefore no more traction.

Now I have tightened plastic pieces but I hope that the two e-rings will hold (I folded and covered with glue once installed).

Thank you all for your advices ... I will surely bother you again ... Now I'm fighting with the servo direction that I can not adjust correctly ( too much right or left [emoji28])
