JunkstyleGio Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 It always amazes me how some people can build with so little information. Well done indeed! Quote
Kisvakond Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) Nice stuff again! =) Edited February 16, 2012 by Kisvakond Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Awesome preview! I wonder how close you came to everything on the inside and the functionality? I love the scale of this one. Quote
grohl Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 I really like what you are doing, but I would not have time to struggle with finding out how does the set work before it is released. Quote

timslegos Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 nice replica. Do you think the official set will have pitch control? tim Quote
Brickthus Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 This is coming along nicely The 5M studless beams on the upper layer of 2 should be these upside down. There are 2 5M axles through the bush parts of them and the 3x5 L beams and the 5M beams on the lower layer, replacing the black pegs you have. The 7M beams on the upper layer might be 2x 3M means but only a top-down view if the set will tell us. On the pitch change mechanism there is one of these either side, with the pin hole connecting with a black peg interface towards the central shaft. Could be a peg or ball joint. If it is a large turntable holding the 4 3x5 L-beams then that's high-friction for rotating the rotor. A motor would need to do 1120rpm to get the rotor to a realistic 160rpm with the 8:56 ratio - faster than both PF motors. Mark Quote
