Lotus 79 Rear wheel

Post by Orso »

I think that I asked this a couple of years ago. Tine to see if there has been a change.

I want to build a late season Martini Lotus 79. As it had out board rear brakes, the wheels are different. Has anything useful emerged for a 1/20 scale car?

Four spokes
I have been truing to convert the Lotus 72 wheels. The wheel centers has to move out for the brakes to fit inside the wheels.
I whish that I was able to construct them for a 3D printer but I have no knowledge of those programs.

Wouldn't the building plans and pictures of the MFH Martini Lotus be helpful?
