timslegos Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Wow that is really cool! I am impressed with the mechanisms. tim Quote
KEvron Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 very cool! reminds me of the skylift (now defunct, i believe) at magic mountain. KEvron Quote
F0NIX Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 (edited) DANG!! He beat me to it! I am just in the planing phase to make a lift like this :) I don't know what the RCX and the pneumatics are doing in his mechanism but I'm planing on all mechanical system driven by only one motor (or several attached to the same axle for more power). I'm now at the phase to find a way to make the turn, but I think I have it. Just waiting for some parts to arrive before going on. Anyway, I love this MOC. Lots of wheels and mechanic stuff happening. Edited March 8, 2012 by F0NIX Quote

Good job oh you're right ;) I didn't count in detail but in total it's about 250 gears and estimated 4000 pieces. It took me about 300 hours do present if I also count the programming in NQC and all the testing ;) this weekend I'll do the final improvements so I'm ready for the exhibition the next weekend...
