I actually got the red brick to fit. Just pick it up, and place it, and it will snap. Normally it's an illegal build, but sometimes you can make it snap in LDD; and this is such a case.

I noticed that during the build of the set. Actually I was surprised that LDD allowed the brick to fit, as I knew it was an illegal building method I had encountered in other City trucks as well (such as 7990 Cement Mixer). But here's the reason why I left the Technic brick out and aside the truck. Yes, LDD will allow it to snap in, but if you save the thus amended lxf, close LDD and reopen LDD with this lxf, it will (sometimes, not always..... ) recognise it as a misplaced brick and remove it. So to speak: the illegal build and the possible error warning made the lxf unacceptable according to my own quality control standards....

In that case, I think you made the right decision to leave it to the side

4404 - Land Busters [Model A] - theme: Designer



Errors:

• Rim part 44292 (Wheel 30.4mm D. x 20mm with 3 Pinholes) missing in LDD, replaced with part 56145 (Rim wide with cross 30 x 20)
  
• Balloon tyre part 44308 (Black Tire 43.2 x 22 H) missing in LDD, replaced with part 61481 (Tyre Balloon Wide 43 x 26)
  
• Part 6211 (Spiral Tube with flange) doesn't flex - nearest flexible part (64230) is not long enough to clip into part 4085 (Plate 1x1 with Holder), so both instances have been left straight
  
• Use of illegal building technique described here and confirmed by legolijntje and Superkalle - part 32054 has been placed behind the model

Errors caused by the wheel replacement:

• Part 32062 (2M Cross Axle with Groove) had to be pulled out of the left chainstay by ½M due to a conflict with the rear wheel
  
• Because of the excessive width of the alternative tyre, part 72504 (Corrugated Pipe 16M) could not be placed on the fork stanchions, and both instances have been placed behind the model

4403 - Air Blazers [Model B] - theme: Designer



Errors:

• The side windows, made by part 2362 (Wall element 1x2x3) should be tilted 14-15 degrees on the hinge bricks below them. This causes collision errors when building above them, so they have been placed upright.
  
• The front windows, made by part 46413 (Shell 4x8x2 with Forks) create a "hitbox" which interferes with part of the instrument panel. These parts have been left at the front of the model.
  
• None of the technic assemblies work, due to limitations with LDD. This includes the landing gear controls, and the intriguing method of making the rotor spin.
  
• Rubber Band 41752 not present in LDD

Errors:

According with BrickSet, the set 3300014 has not been released yet.
Perhaps do you have different informations?

True, but on the News page they said that it will be the next set for the 'Brick Friday' promotion. Instructions are on Brickset's instruction page.

[PsyKater]

Yes it will be given out next week Friday, I can confirm. (I hope to get one)

[Superkalle]

the 3300014 LXF contains a lot of extra loose parts in the scene. Should they be removed?

[Stephan]

Those extra parts are the parts that need to be replaced when the prints will be available. This way they are easy to find

Ok, if it is a matter of few days, this time there is no problem.
For the future, remember that you can't post a set that has not been released yet.

You can provide a .lxf file with those extra pieces as a "bonus file", but the main file can't contain more pieces than those necessary to build the set.
Anyway, I think there is a best way to easy find that pieces, that is to create a group that assort the replacements.

2654 is supposed to go inside the clear Plate Round 4x4 with 2x2 hole, since I replaced it with 60474, there was no hole to place 2654 in, thus I could not place it.

[JavaProgrammer_01]

I hope that the bug relating to the 6211 Star Destroyer is fixed in the next release of LDD.
