What a beast!

I see I've still to buy lots of red parts to build it. Or I'd better to build it in yellow....

About 60 cm. Weighs about 6 kg, including 18 AA batteries.

Yes, they are the right size, European trucks don't have the large tyres they have in America

On-highway trucks in North America, Europe, Australia, South America, Africa etc all use similar size tyres. :wink:

I'm deeply ignorant about extra EU tyre size :classic: ...the Unimog wheels are a bit to small but a bit to wide (we talking about a couple of decimal points). So It's a compromise, especially for the rear axle.

I do not think the are small, the look just about right to me.

And some transport companies use wider tyres on all axles.

i've driven with a truck with 315mm wide tyres on the rear axle.

Wow it doesn't even fit on the table! May I ask, how much bigger is the tractor truck than

lets say the unimog u400 or the Volvo l350f

Looks like this:

Could you release parts list first?

I think I will share before issuing instructions. But it is not yet ready.

"You have 99,2 % of the required parts"

Two clicks on the PayPal buttons and the fun can start!

TIP: Buy a cheap 8943 to get all those rounded panels

8943-1.jpg

And 2 copies of 42029 is a good start as well.

This model has over a 1000 thick liftarms!

I have about 99% of the parts required. :blush::tongue:

The funny thing is that I have only the 99.1% of the parts!! :laugh:
