[MOC] MAZ-535 Trial truck

[Pego]

Hello there!

This is a truck that I have built.

It is trying to resemble a MAZ-535 like this one:

Functions

• 8x8 drive from 2 XLs (gear ratio 1:8.337)
  
• Full independent suspension
  
• Steering on 2 front axles by M motor
  
• 2 rechargable batteries and 2 SBricks

It is a really amazing truck, the suspension system is very clever, both functions and aesthetics are really great, it also seems to have a very good off-roading capability, nice work.

Nice use of the suspension arms.

[2LegoOrNot2Lego...]

Nice use of the suspension arms indeed! Cool...

[Lakop]

Clever. I like how it came out the water.

Really interesting combination of suspension and drive system. Good work. :)

I want to see it with Xerion tires... ;)

claas tires won't fit for sure. Current tires are less then 94 mm and they have almost no space between so 107 mm tires wont fit

[Pego]

Thanks guys!

Yes the suspension system worked quite well, it's simple and robust.

And no the xerion tires wouldn't fit, they're about 25 mm too big

Looks awesome , Interesting suspension setup

Yes I'll make an LDD file

From various sets, the tires are the 81.6 mm ones, and rims are unimog tires rim.

The tires are stretched on, and they are now unusable on the original rims

We finally got some nice snow here in Finland, so here is some footage from that:

I also made the tires wider and flatter by pulling the tire out to the edge of the rim, making it perform much better.

Cool suspension design using only 1 U-J per wheel, it seems to work well.

I did the same trick to my tires and I really like the grip of them, they work so much better then the 9398 ones.

[Pego]

@JJ2 Yeah I had to make the suspension like that for it to fit.

I like these tires too, but too bad that they become unusable normally.

Awesome! That's by far the coolest (and most capable) LEGO RC vehicle I've seen. Great job!
