WIP Beta released Satsuma 210 '58 5.01

6 lug for planned datsun wheels, and additional 4 lug for beamng wheels would be great

 

The steering problem is caused by the steering box being mounted on the very front end of the left frame rail and it gets pushed back when the frame hits some obstacle making the car veer to the left. The steering geometry is similar to the T-series and it also suffers this problem after hard frontal crashes.

At least old Datsun brochures refers it as a sedan. Many pre-war cars with no trunk at all were marketed as sedans.

Thanks very much!

 

Looks cool

 

This is a beautiful looking and unique vehicle. Nice work!

Gotta' jump on the too strong bandwagon: Result after a 900ft jaunt down my ramp of doom. Most vehicles are mere puddles after this.

 

Here is a pic of restored Datsun which the Satsuma is based on

 

I like the dome light that you can turn on and off

 

I'd suggest moving the outside camera more towards the middle of the car because currently it rotates around the back of the car which means it looks ridiculously out of proportion when viewed from the front.

 

I think it is, the (real) Minis are classified as saloons (sedans to those in America) because the boot isn't a full hatch.

 

This is a fantastic little car.

Have you thought of doing a early Prince Skyline as your next project?

 

I can try, but I don't think that's possible, because the reference node is about where the b-pillars are and the camera rotates around it

That would be very, very hard to make. There are almost none information about the car, the hiqh quality images are scarce and there are no blueprints available at all on the internet.

 

Pretty car. But way too strong

 

Lol, I didn't realise it is THAT strong. Should have tested the sun gravity.

 

Wonderful creation

 

That's what I thought. Thanks!

 

I downloaded the D15 Technical mod by @Stoat Muldoon and gave the Satsuma a shot with the recoilless rifle trough the trunk!. What a great mod that is.

The M2 50cal. machine gun helped me to find another bug: when the front fenders detach, the meshes are still attached to the inner fenders. I'll fix that for the next update.

 

hmmmm

 

Ничего страшного,это все-таки бета версия

 

I know a guy on a facebook group that owns one. I can ask him for reference photos.

 

Nice work crossing over MSC and beamng in term of brands. I would like to see the MSC Satsuma, or a "Satsuma" 510 (Based on the same number datsun or something like that)
But that is on the long term if you want to keep going with mod making.
Outside of that, a Automatic Gearbox would be nice. Even if it is only on the very high end model.
