ArsMan064 Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Hello! I am ready to show you my model - AURELION 2040 This is futuristic truck. Inspiration was Steinwinter supercargo 2040, name of the model has reference to it. I built model for Rig&Roll competition 31/08/2019, where took 3rd place. You can see video of competition from GooberReboot. Electrics: 2 L motors for drive Servo motor for steering and steering wheel 1 m motor for fifth wheel coupling Extension wire Lipo SBrick There is also semitrailer, that really simple, but has pretty similar system of supports to one I used in MAN TGA. Tiny lever in fifth wheel coupling locks semitrailer and pushes another lever in semitrailer, that through the system of levers and gears rotates supports. There is also possible to detach semitrailer from truck without hands' help, but it needs some skill. Model can carry up to 4 kg on the smooth surface. I tried to make pretty good design, I hope you enjoyed it. You can see also some interior with details and glovebox. Model haven't any instruction, but I have some WIP photos. All photos you can find here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/ArsMan064/aurelion-2040 Now you know how to use your only one dark azure rim from 42077 Be sure to watch the video! Thank you for reading! Hope you like it Edited January 3, 2020 by ArsMan064 Quote
Merlict Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 Thought it was a really ugly supercar at first lol Very original. Quote
Saberwing40k Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 When I first saw this, I thought it was an aircraft pushback tug, but then you showed off the real truck, and I got it. I like how in the video, you show perfectly the advantages of this configuration. But, let's hope you don't have to drive over a leaf, this thing could get hung up really easily. Quote

Thank you for comment! I agree, model has some similar features with aircraft pushback tug Quote
johnnym Posted July 23, 2020 Posted July 23, 2020 @ArsMan064: Just discovered this via Google, searching for a Steinwinter like Technic truck. Cool looks and functionality. After buying a 42098 I got the idea to build a car transporter myself as possible transport for my Turbo Racers line of cars. As the setting of these cars is in the future I thought the tractor had to be futuristic, too. Enter the Steinwinter truck. To keep the scale of the cars I assume I'll have to use 62 mm wheels and hopefully I can also include a suspension. We'll see. Your truck by all means is a great inspiration. Quote

Sorry for not replying earlier, I was a little occupied last month. I've already sketched a preliminary version but didn't manage to take some photos until today. I'll send you a PM with a link to pictures to not spoil your thread. On 7/28/2020 at 1:02 PM, ArsMan064 said: Also your turbo racers are awesome! Thanks a lot! Glad you like them! Quote
