Studless 8479 Barcode multi set - B model finish!

[msk6003]

After finish studless 8480 Space shuttle, I found this is very fun to build. So I decided build another one and 8479 Barcode multi set is selected because it is same age with me and I like green.

Thanks to lot of john deere sets relesed recently, lot of green parts is easy to getting. Except 32009 double bent beam.

Of course I will build other 3 model of this set as alternative as this model like what I did in studless 8480.

Function

Both rear wheel is connected to rotary incoder for speed reading and L4 engine on cabin. Can motorised like original set. (Original model drive middle wheel only and don't have engine)

Both rear wheel has pendular suspension. (Original set has simple lifting axle on rearmost wheel)

Front wheel steering with HOG and steering wheel.

Grabbing and lifting work using on force sensor on claw.

Tilting dump bed using linear actuator and another force sensor which detect function select lever changing. (Like original set)

 

I used spike prime hub and motor for testing but soon will change it to robot inventor's hub. Model is no 85~90% finished and need more green 9beam and programming.

And cause my programming skill is not that good to make barcode reading, I will make it just like normal mindstorm set.

Few days ago I finally finish to build B model of 8479. The raider transporter vehicle. Of course like my previous 8480 studless A and B model, this is also made part from A model.

Because of that, few part looks different with original model. Main reason is I used lot less angle connector in studless A model than original version.

All function in original B model is still work same on studless version except motorized drive.

I will make video and instruction soon and make C Dune buggy and D Walker model too.
