A NEW MILESTONE IN DIGITAL REBUILDING!
The 2005 Carson KING OF DIRT - 4WD is a 1:8 scale competition off-road nitro buggy with permanent all-wheel drive, designed for use on loose surfaces like dirt and gravel.
The vehicle is built on a torsionally rigid aluminum chassis with a centrally positioned engine and fuel tank for optimized weight distribution. It is powered by a .21 two-stroke nitro engine, such as the
O.S. ENGINES OS-MAX-21VG-PES, coupled to a multi-plate centrifugal clutch and a central gearbox with driveshaft drive ...
CADDICTED
CADDICTED is essentially dedicated to the digital restoration of model engines and models. In addition, as a fan of rendering images and so-called blueprints, I create such blueprints for each of the projects.
I hope it will be a treat for every technically interested viewer. The photo books or photo calendars also contain smaller A3 versions of the large-format posters.
Thank you for reading, viewing and enjoying it!
CADDICTED NEXT?
For 2026, there are different options as to which model or engine should be digitally restored next. There are a lot to choose from and now the users can decide:
- Graupner Fairlady 240Z (~1980)
- Graupner Yamaha YZ250-10-GP
- robbe Peanuts-Racer (~1977)
- Schlueter HeliBaby (~1975)
- O.S. ENGINES - OS-IL-300 (~2006)
- Hirobo GPH346 (~1995)
- ENYA VT240 (~1986)
- O.S. ENGINES - OS-FF-320-PEGASUS

THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING!
Based on the Graupner GO-KART-10-GP with combustion engine, the design of an electric version with a brushless drive and 2S-LiPo drive battery (EP - electric powered) is carried out here.
The upgrade parts are 3D printed using the SLS process and can be downloaded once the design is complete. A real version is built in parallel to the digital design.
Complete DIGITAL REBUILD of my 1:8 scale racing buggy from 2005. Most of the parts were designed in 2009, but...
I had tried my hand at modelling the body shell several times over the years – with rather limited success. It was only the experience gained from modeling the clear canopy of the
BELL-47G that brought the breakthrough. The entire body was created as a consistent freeform surface design – including paintwork and logos.
The OS-MAX-21VG series engines are 3.46 cm³ high-performance engines and were specially designed for remote-controlled racing cars in 1:8 scale.
This engine was one of my first machines modeled in CAD in 2010 (!) as part of the digital design of my 1:8 buggy from Carson. Now I model the open CAD features and create blueprint / rendering images.
