An alternative model for 42114 6x6 Volvo Articulated Hauler

Model is completely motorized, with 3 motors, and controlled by official 42114 profile in Control+ app

Scaled to dimensions of CAT 834K, with additional features like working fans behind the cab.

Drives, steers and elevates the blade.

The gearbox from A model has been redesigned, I've removed the parking brake and whole gearbox is much more compact. An additional feature, not present in A model are spining fans behind the cab.
Whole model is basically a housing for gearbox, motors and HUB.
The blade elevation drivetrain is a little bit complicated, due to lack of second universal joint. Instead I have used several bevel gears on the central pivot.

Cool B-model. Maybe also update topic name, so it is clear, that it is B-model.

Very cool B-model! Had anybody already tried to do a scraper as a B/C-model? ;-)

Looks great. Even if TLG is discontinuing B-models, I'm happy to see them being made by AFOLs!

drove past a motorway construction site today and a wheel dozer fitted with a GPS grade control system caught my attention, something similar to this system here, but it was only a single mast and not the dual mast system as seen in the brochure.

Anyone got any good ideas on how to stimulate this with the white dome at the top?

It's a pretty cool alternative model, very original, I have never seen a vehicle like this before. It is better finished than the A model to me. Congrats !
