(...) If you ever get around to do it, photos would be appreciated. :) I have no motor to fix so I can't experiment. By the way Tobbe, I like your set reviews a lot (on your homepage).

Sounds great! I would also like to see a bunch of .jpg photos. The transmission is something I'd love to see in detail and details on the solar panel you're using would satisfy a curiosity(sp?) as well. Keep us updated. ---...--- Nathan Falslev (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Hi Gillis! Welcome to Lugnet. Your project sounds very interesting, as the 8880's major flaw has always been the difficulty in motorizing it. The quicktime 3d images are cool, but do you take any photos of the completed model? (in JPG) ? I (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-03, to lugnet.technic)

As a school project I'm building a small car powered by a solar panel. It should come as no big surprise that I'm doing this with lego. :) I started out with the 8880 chassis (without bodywork) motorised by an old style 9V motor. The project is (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-03, to lugnet.technic)
