Well guys, its time for a new MOC
My latest creation is a Sennebogen 683 R tracked and telescopic crane.


It has 8 functions and 9 motors:
Functions
1M motor: left chain
1M motor: right chain
1M motor: extend chains
1M motor: rotating
2M motors: winch
1M motor: extend 3rd section
1XL motor: raise arm
1XL motor: extend 2nd section

Some photos:
  



More photos you can find on Brickshelf and Flickr

And here is the video:


A action video comes very soon...

Hope you like it and please comment

Looks great!  Pure Technic too with no unsightly system bricks.    

I like your panel placement and overall design.  The color scheme looks good too - well done!

[dhc6twinotter]

That is a really, really nice crane!   You have some great functions, and I especially like your boom design.    

Well done!  

[Alasdair Ryan]

How dare you say that     .

Nice crane!  the extending tracks drive well for being extendable.  Can the crane pick up a load?

Nice crane.  I like all the functions.  Are 2 LAs required to raise the boom in the model?   I think the Sennebogen 683R has a single large hydraulic cylinder if I recall from the product brochure.

Thank you for your positive comments

I will use this in the next video:


@dr_spock
Yes you are right, but one LA would not have enough power to raise the boom with a load. There must exist long and strong LA´s, so that it looks and functions  like the original, but they don´t exist except some selfmade non Lego LA´s like these. Also a selfmade aculator with a screw would be to big in revelation to the boom.

The track extendion function is awesome! I rally like the shape of the boom and the overall functionality. Only thing bothering me is the placement of the battery box, its kind of out of place.

hi!
you will put the instruction to build this beautiful machine? :)

[Lost_In_Noise]

Nice crane. I like the way the boom extends very fast. Is it powered directly from a m-motor, or do you use any gearing down between?

The second boom is powered directly by the XL Motor. The third bomm is powered by the M Motor with a Transmission from a 20t up to a 12t gear.

Nice crane!

[Alasdair Ryan]

I think you could of done with some guide ropes.

[Aussie BJ]

This truly is an amazing crane with a great functions, reach and speed.

The safety officer wouldn't be to happy with no guide ropes attached to that bridge section'

Thanks for sharing your instruction's.
I am examining your crane as I speak.

When I saw this for the first time, I did not wanted to bump into this older topic, but now I will take the oportunity to say how impressed I was.

I like the boom design and the track extension function is something I have never seen before.
