Hi,

Well,

this is my first try to assemble truck with theese wheels (I finally bought them enough to make this ;) )

It features HOG steering that must be disassembled (axle-connector) when you want to pneumatically lift the cabin to see the fake motor, or do something with front independent suspension.

It also features manually controlled outriggers with pneumatic cylinders on their end. It is also well (and it wasn't planned equipped for placing small PF BBs (Li-Po or AAA).

However, I have not enough space in it and bricks and idea to finish the superstructure on the M-motor powered turntable.

Non-working elements disassembled and more working showed:

Two rear "axles", if I can call them so, are simple - rigid to support the rear of the truck, and in combination with the front soft and heavy-loaded front suspension, to tilt the whole truck in weird way...

It has many bugs, it is not perfect, but it was fun to build, and I think I have learned a lot ;)

(And I think that motorised version without many features (outriggers, etc.) is going to come in next weeks or years (? :tongue: ), but I do not make promises ;))

Enjoy, and please comment to tell me what you think about it ;)

Very nice looking truck

Does it also feature a compressor?

Keep moccing, you're on the right track :thumbup:

Thanks, no, it does not, compressor in another thing that is as source of energy external in this phase of building ;)

(And I will , that is one of few things that I can promise :D)

Nice looking truck. Is the M motor in there for turntable rotation?

Yes, when connected to the BB, it is supposed to rotate the turntable (but it is slow...) Otherwise it is useless. :D

Very cool looking truck. Love the design and the functions as well. Do you plan on building a trailer for it?

Oh, thank you very much!

Trailer? I do not know... Maybe for the motorised version it would be nice to have one, but I have not enough of theese wheels. :D And with different wheels it would not look good enough... ;) Maybe later... ;)

I really like the appearance of the cab :wink:

Thank you, I am glad you like it ;)
