desert752 Posted February 21 Hi! I’m glad to show my new model. It is Grinder from Red Alert 3: Uprising computer game. Dimensions: 77 x 34 x 23 cm, weight – 4,5 kg. The Grinder has three S-bricks and ten motors: - Six L-motors for drive - M-motor for steering (articulated chassis) - M-motor for gearbox (two stages: high 1:1 and low 1:3) - M-motor for boom lifting - XL-motor for cutter Watch the funny video to see the model in action :) More photos: Flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/141718063@N06/albums/72157689870626903 Thanks for watching!

MajklSpajkl Posted February 21 That is one big beast! Looks really dangerous ;-) Are the wheels also ran by motors or just the tracks? Big sprocket wheels are definetly on "to buy" list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

captainmib Posted February 22 I played C&C 3, but i can't remember this unit. Is this from an expansion? Nice build, looks like a real beast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I planned to drive the wheels too, but gearbox seemed to be too complex in this case. So only tracks are driven. 8 hours ago, captainmib said: Is this from an expansion? Yes, it is additional unit.

syclone Posted February 22 Certainly one-of a kind vehicle and amazing video as always. The "camouflage" seems pefect for The Lego Movie XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
