jorgeopesi Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Awesome job, I left MOCs with this size because I couldn´t do the details that I wanted, but with stickers the problem could disappear, they give it the perfect effect of a detailed MOC. I remember a Kamaz truck with stickers awesome too. Quote
piterx Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 I must say that bodywork for this model was pretty rushed...the whole model is more like a test car than an actual well made moc ...it doesnt even have seats and steering wheel XD Quote
Lucio Switch Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 It's how you do the mechanics that impresses me!! Small, few parts, but really functional!! Quote
Doc_Brown Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Looking good as always my friend, looking forward to seeing more in action! Quote
MajklSpajkl Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Your "2 minute ?bad?" photoshop lokes really realistic, at least on my mobile. The car looks awesome! Quote
Doc_Brown Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Yes your Photoshop skills are very impressive! :thumbup: Quote
piterx Posted April 24, 2015 Author Posted April 24, 2015 well guys as that car was just a test i won't spend time on it anymore so ill dismount it probably without shooting any video to it... for those who are gonna say "nooo why?" the answer is in the title of this thread :P that wasn't the car i wanted to make so i rushed it just to get it done to test axles and overall performances now i can finally proceed with the nissan d21 :) i won't be using RC motors because i'd like to make instructions for this car and id really like if everyone can build it without spending too much money on it :) i also have to say that probably this time instructions won't be for free just because i'll personally do them because i'm totally out of cash that can be destinated to legos...wich is a pity :P so for those who will like to support my projects there will be instructions for around 5 euros :) and a huge "thank you" for those who don't, there will be this WIP thread that they'll be able to use to reverse engineer this pickup ^^ so here's the actual state of the car and i must say im pretty happy with it because the real model seems to have perfect proportions for lego pieces hope you'll like it!!

DamonMM2000 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 I would've loved to see a video on that test vehicle, but you're starting good on that Nissan! Quote
piterx Posted April 26, 2015 Author Posted April 26, 2015 here's some progress :) although i won't be able to finish it until i recive parts from bricklink as the new driving ring and red panels, i keep building what i can... so i made two pretty solid axles and lifted the chassis 5 studs from ground wich is gonna be useful for offroad driving :) plus: i noiced i can easily integrate 2 rc motors under seats so after i finish it i'll probably modify it to make it more performant and fun to drive here's the differential lock... there will be a pushrod to activate the selector hopefully i'll be able to use a single M motor to do the following operation: high ratio -> low ratio -> diff lock if you have in mind any mechanism like that, please let me know so i can integrate it here :) Quote
Doc_Brown Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Looking great man! The proportions look fantastic, that overlay program is great! This is going to be a tear asss truck! Quote
Epic Technic Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 For the gearbox can't you just use the design from the first page. Quote
timslegos Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Great looking progress so far. I have a question though, how are the axles constrained from side to side movement? tim Quote
piterx Posted April 27, 2015 Author Posted April 27, 2015 more progress going on :) i started building the body...obviously those white panels will be red at the end, im waiting for them to be delivered the battery box will be placed below those black panels in the back just like it was the fuel tank... For the gearbox can't you just use the design from the first page. not really, you know there's that half stud offset with the old driving ring? if i use the new one everything will be more compact and tidy :) Great looking progress so far. I have a question though, how are the axles constrained from side to side movement? tim pushrods! :P Quote

skriblez Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I will gladly bay you €5 for the instructions for this awesome moc :) Quote
__________________________ Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I will gladly bay you €5 for the instructions for this awesome moc :) It's almost too simple to need instructions (;This is the beauty of piterx MOCs: very light weight, very few parts required, and lots of power Once this is finished let's all make an LXF for this.

DamonMM2000 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Piterx, how did you overlay those LEGO Technic pieces over the blueprint? That would be so useful to know. Thank you! Quote
