[MOC] Caterpillar D10T Dozer (with instructions)

[keymaker]

Hi,

I present my newest creation – tracked Dozer Caterpillar D10T. I decided to go for old technic models style – without panels, frame construction. I like to see working mechanisms, the guts/insides (not sure which word should I use in this sentence, native English guys, please help me out :D) of the model. Here you have some photos, video will be available soon. I hope you like it

Details:

• scale 1:17
• length:  40 cm, width: 26 cm, height: 23 cm, weight: 1.65 kg
• drive – XL motor
• smooth steering thanks to subtractor – L motor
• ripper, raising and lowering  – M motor
• ripper tilting - manual
• blade, raising and lowering – L motor
• blade tilting - manual
• tensioners for both tracks
• individual suspension for non-driven wheels
• working, fake, chain driven V8 engine
• openable doors
• locked tools compartment
• detailed engine bay and operator cabin

Additionally:

• model in scale of technic figure
• power source – buwizz can be easily switched for battery box and two IR receivers
• model can rise itself above the ground with ripper and blade

Wow, no way, totaly panels-free and still such a good shape without stacking beams. Very good look and functionality. Maybe I would still try to fill in the blade a bit, but that's just me.

Thank you! About the blade, the look (with holes) is intentional. I wanted to be consistent and keep the style of the blade the same as the style of the whole construction.
