My first creation, a European three axle dump truck. It uses 2 XL motors for drive, a servo for steering, L for dump and M for winch. I have decided to use 3 small turntables to create 2 pendular solid axles in the rear. I am happy with the result as this is not meant for heavy offroad use. It does the job nicely. No front drive, :sceptic: but oh well, goals for next model. I am very happy with the looks and color scheme and am hoping to find a good reaction from the community :cry_happy: any questions about model I am happy to answer! Thanks for viewing!

Very nice shape!

It looks huge, isn't it?

I love the 8 back tires! :wub:

It was able to lift 834 grams in my testing, but with more gear reduction, more could likely be achieved. Yes, extreme power is achieved! :head_back: but thats how I like it :iamded_lol: it is around 18 inches long so yes, it's huge. Thanks all for comments!

Very nice colour scheme.

If you have so much spare power from two XLs, you could consider making a dump trailer.

Whole truck is bit off with proportions, but for first MOC it looks good.

Where did you lost mudguards from rear axles?

Thanks! Good idea, may try that. Yes, the mudguards were on but tires rubbed too much when suspension flexing so I decided to take them off but may put them back on. Thanks for your reply I love your creations

Why lifting mechanisms is this way? I suppose, that it is not traditional for real cars.

Otherway good looking moc.
