damjan97PL Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Hi. Today I want to show You my new model, a wheel loader. It's my second attempt to build this type of vehicle. I built one a few years ago, but it wasn't fully motorised and looks not good. This model looks much better but its not a perfect MOC. Technical data: -Lenght: 47cm -Height: 19,5cm -Width: 15,5cm -Weight: 1550grams Model is all wheel drive propeled by XL motor with 3,89:1 ratio. Steering system is operated by 2 small linear actuators propeled by M motor with ratio 1:1.667. Front arm is operated by 2 linear acctuators. They are propeled by L motor with ratio 1:1. Bucket is tilting by linear actuator propeled by M motor. All functions are powered by standar battery box and controled by SBrick. It has also a rear oscillating axle and openable rear hood. Under the hood is a working fake 6 cylinder engine. Cabin has a openable door, driver seat and working steering wheel. All functions working fine. It can pick up a few stones. I'm waiting for your comments :) MORE PHOTOS: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=580046 Quote
Maaboo the Witch Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Nice work! Definitely resembles a Liebherr 586. Quote
suffocation Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Brilliant work yet again. I love how you always manage to pack lots of functions and good looks into relatively small models and without resorting to hundreds of System parts. Quote
ginger-snapped Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 I have always loved wheel loaders. Amazing work getting it to look so good and compact while still fitting those functions in. I will say the bucket tilting had me worried for a second seeing it be a bit shaky (possible due to that u-joint), but it seems quite strong working with those rocks. Great job! Quote
