Thanks :)
The problem is your pictures are from the prelunch and all these pictures are animated ones and not really the actual specifications. So I do not know whether they are good for comparison.

Hi Thomas,

I understand your point. I am not 100% about it too. The FIA technical spec is not a document that is easy to read for someone that is not into car design. These are the good side pictures that I can fine so far. You really need a good side picture with correct background and lighting to see the details.

Well, it is the engineer in me that causes me to investigate. In a model, this rake angle (or lack of it) for the size of the front wing endplate is probably difficult to gauge.

I am making a mountain out of a mole hill. :lol:

Looks great Thomas, good job! :)
The angle of the front wing can be corrected when building it up, easy to fix if ever needed to do so.
Keep it going!
Take a stand!

So the vacation is over and it went on, but I just want to post a few pictures of the printed parts first. :D
Sometimes I also attached a few pictures of the first parts before the adjustments were made.

In addition, if you take a closer look, you will notice that there were a few more adjustments to the 3D data in addition to the 3D screenshot, for example with the rear wing...
I am currently printing the floor plate. I hadn't posted any pictures of that yet. They'll come shortly. ;)

Rear Wing old-new - updated parts - thinned wing elements and DRS mechanic.

Front Wing old-new - updated parts - Nose opening, additional bottom wing elements, panel lining, right nose combination with camera wings and mounting system.

T-Wing old-new - updated parts to recreate the Monaco version.

Front suspension old-new - updated parts with more details and real brake system and recreated also the Monaco version.

http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4603.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4608.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4609.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4610.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4611.jpg

Rear suspension old-new - updated parts with more details and real brake system and recreated also the Monaco version.

http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4619.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4620.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4621.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4622.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4623.jpg http://steinietrabi-skoda-fabia.de/Modellbau/McLaren%20MCL35M/IMG_4624.jpg

The printing of the chassis part was also successful.

The accuracy of fit seems to be very good, all parts fit straight away.

Thanks guys!

But thanks have also go to Redbox,the new badgebords, the rear suspension and also the wheels are his design.
I'm also really excited about his project and can't wait to see his model. :D

Right now I'm fighting with the floor plate and I think fighting is the right expression. :lol: :lol:
But I think you will find it as good as I do... :mrgreen:
