Nice model Fredrik! Glad to hear that I'm not the only one with weight
problems, well not me personally, but with my technic cars! I find that I
spend more time working out how to get the suspension to support my models
than any other part of the building process. For anyone who is interested
in Fredrick's suspension setup, can I direct you to my latest model on the
technic-uk homepage, under 'Neil's technic creations' on
www.technic-uk.co.uk. Using rockers/linkages can help lots in reducing the
suspension travel, and therefore giving a stiffer setup.
BTW, I wish I had an 8880!
Cheers,
Neil
