Henry Ford designed and built the FORD QUADRICYCLE right after he developed his first petrol engine. Working as a salaried employee, he constructed this car in a tiny workshop that was so small he had to break down the door to try it out on the street when it was finished. https://youtu.be/tPvtD8a7nZA The built model is an exact replica of the original, scaled down to 1/6 for a length of 330mm. Its framework for mechanical strength is made from 6x6 aluminium angle iron. A fake engine was created through 3D printing. The motor that powers the model is an IGARACHI TYP 20G-50, controlled by a Modelcraft 207368 mini-drive and powered by a LIPO 7.4 V 1500 mAh Red Power C9404 25C battery. A LEGO TECHNICAL chain connects the engine to the rear wheel. A deflection device enables both the steering bar and wheels to turn simultaneously. The four tyres are printed in NIJAFLEX, mounted on two-piece rims with spokes made of wire. For aesthetic purposes, the seat and front block were crafted from wood. Most screws used are M2, M3, and M4.
