Sthrom technic corner

I haven't been very active on this forum for a while, but I've created quite a few new creations. That's why I've been thinking for a while about creating one topic for all of my creations. Especially for those of you who don't use social media as much where I'm more active with my posts. To start, I'll introduce you to my new creation. Well, it's not exactly new. The story started with a trailer that I started a few years ago as a 2x4 configuration with front dolly. This project  wasn't very successful. I then changed it to a version without a front dolly and it was then intended as a trailer for the Volvo FH16 project with a crane. Then when Volvo introduced the new Aero model, I started doing it. Initially only in digital form, which I assembled in physical form over a year later. Then it took me quite a while to manage to photograph it all and upload a video.
On the trailer itself, there is another slightly different project of mine. Using a 3D printer, I made the bricks of the set 30710, Skid-Steer Loader in 2.5x scale.

Both the truck and the trailer are motorized. The truck has two PF L motors for propulsion and one servo PF motor for steering. The trailer has 3 motorized functions. Support legs, trailer lift and steered axles. This also has the option of fifth wheel steering. Both have Buwizz 2.0 to control.

 

 

 

That's all for now, will try to post regularly as much as possible. I will soon present my new project, an 8x8 truck with a crane, which is still under construction.

wow!! I really like the ingenious angles and ball joint of the trailer connection to the truck. One question: the trailer looks kind of saggy. Is that purposeful / non-avoidable?

The trailer is quite reinforced, but at this length there is a slight sag. This is even more visible in the photo because the front is too high and not all the axles are aligned on the ground. Otherwise, the trailer has a load capacity of at least 3kg.

Here you can see better that it is more about lifting. But it depends on how much the large LA is stretched, which is used to adjust the height of the goose neck.

I'm quite active there, although sometimes I make a recording and then run out of time to edit and publish it.

Ok cool. Very nice an detailed. I like the actuator used to determine the gooseneck height!
