KirTech LAB Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Hi! I’m glad to show my new model. It is Grinder from Red Alert 3: Uprising computer game. Dimensions: 77 x 34 x 23 cm, weight – 4,5 kg. The Grinder has three S-bricks and ten motors: - Six L-motors for drive - M-motor for steering (articulated chassis) - M-motor for gearbox (two stages: high 1:1 and low 1:3) - M-motor for boom lifting - XL-motor for cutter Watch the funny video to see the model in action :) More photos: Flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/141718063@N06/albums/72157689870626903 Thanks for watching!

MajklSpajkl Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 That is one big beast! Looks really dangerous ;-) Are the wheels also ran by motors or just the tracks? Big sprocket wheels are definetly on "to buy" list. Quote
TeamThrifty Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Thats made me smile! I love seeing different things, a break from the norm.. awesome!! Quote
dougstar Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Woohoo its it's a beast? Nice must have been fun to build?? Quote
captainmib Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I played C&C 3, but i can't remember this unit. Is this from an expansion? Nice build, looks like a real beast. Quote

I planned to drive the wheels too, but gearbox seemed to be too complex in this case. So only tracks are driven. 8 hours ago, captainmib said: Is this from an expansion? Yes, it is additional unit.

syclone Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 Certainly one-of a kind vehicle and amazing video as always. The "camouflage" seems pefect for The Lego Movie XD Quote
Aleh Posted February 24, 2019 Posted February 24, 2019 In my chilhood I was I fan of Command & Conquer Red Alert/Red Alert 2, but third part went past me. AS usual great & complex MOC! Quote
KirTech LAB Posted February 26, 2019 Author Posted February 26, 2019 Thanks :) Some additional info about the model (use subtitles): Quote
Lox Lego Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Wow. That video was delightfully entertaining. I used to love red alert - a staple of the 90s. Great recreation ! Quote
