filsawgood Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) HI! Today i want to present you my new work - Aircraft Tug XL I started this project a year ago, but bring to mind it succeeded only now. Meet Aircraft Tug XL (Pushback tug/Tractor tug). The model is an extension of the project Aircraft Tug 2014, many of which I am personally not satisfied, and therefore had an idea to build something more functional, large and attractive. Thus was born the Aircraft Tug XL.Machines of this kind is mainly used at airports when towing aircrafts to parking or vice versa - to the runway. I think everyone who has ever been in the large airports, have seen similar tugs. Less a similar technique can be found in seaports or any other freight terminals that require towing heavy loads.This truck has four-wheel drive by two XL motors, independent steering front and rear axle on two servo motors, lifting mechanism cabin, as well as a system of four mechanical jacks driven by two motors L. Full remote management for that answer 3 infrared receiver, and power models provide two large battery pack located on the sides, and of course, he has V10 on board!The functional copy of the tractor completely original machine. The layout of the indoor units I came as close to real.Dimensions:D / W / H56/27/15 stud.445/220/120 mm.The model is made of 100% Lego parts except stickers - I made them their own. The basis of design I took the logo of the Khabarovsk airport - in the form of a flying bear. In Russia bears do not just walk down the street with balalykas, but also know how to fly :)I also worked on the detailed cabin from the outside to the inside. Now, in contrast to the previous tractor, the door is open, there is a full salon, which are two fire extinguishers, driver's seat and the passenger, levers, steering wheel, and monitor devices.Tractor turned quite powerful, as you can see by watching video. In practice, it is able to move from his seat and dragged to drag a weight of not less than 6 kg, as long as the batteries have been good charge :) You may see more information and photos on my blog Edited January 6, 2016 by filsawgood Quote
Sylvian Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Love the bear stickers! Awesome machine and defenitely an improvement over your previous rendition. Also like the interior very much :) Quote
dr_spock Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Nice. I've seen bears riding in Ladas but haven't seen bears fly before. Suggestion for the video, it was hard to read quickly with the font you used. A solid color font would have worked better or have the text display longer. Quote
braker23 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Wow! I just love it, looks so sleek, it's very powerful and offers plenty of functions, can't wait to see the LDD file :) Quote
