MOD - 42024 Container Truck Full RC
Chilekesh replied to Chilekesh's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yeah, it is a very tight fit, and no room to hide the receivers and battery, short of gutting the driver's cabin, which I did not want to do. I tried to make them less of an annoyance with colors and tiles, and this is the best I could do. Of course I'm open to suggestions for improvement.- 3 replies

MOD - 42024 Container Truck Full RC
Chilekesh posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi everyone, Here's my modification of Lego Technic 42024 Container Truck set. In addition to original functions (steering, outriggers and container lifting) it has: - 6x4 driving, - 90° tilting of the driver's cabin, - Working & tilting steering wheel, - Fake V8 engine (working), - Led lights, and is completely remote controlled. I used: - 1 L-motor for 6x4 driving - 1 Servo motor for steering - 1 M-motor for outriggers - 1 M-motor for lifting the container - 1 M-motor for tilting the cabin - 1 rechargeable battery box - 3 IR receivers - 1 set of led lights - 1 x 20 cm extension cable Bricksafe: http://bricksafe.com/pages/Chilekesh/42024-rc (*.lxf file can be found here).

MOD - 42008 Service Truck full RC with pneumatics
Chilekesh posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi, Here's my modification of 42008 Service Truck set, fully motorized and remote controlled. I decided to keep the original functions (including pneumatics) exactly as they are while adding some extra features as well. The additional functions are driving, tilting of the driver's cabin, headlights, steering and working-tilting steering wheel. I tried my best to keep the original looks (with some visual improvements though) and made the structure as rigid as possible. The PF elements used are: - 1 L-motor for 8x4 driving (with single, shared differential) - 1 M-motor for steering - 1 M-motor for tilting the cabin - 1 M-motor for functions (included in the original set) - 4 M-motors for switches - 2 for pneumatic switches and 2 for mechanical switches - 4 IR receivers - 1 Rechargeable battery box - 1 Led light set, - 2 x 20 cm extension cables, one for the large motor and one for the battery box.

LDD 4.3.10 Update Released
Chilekesh replied to gedren_y's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Another good news: the 50 cm extension cable now works as a 2-piece element... But the 20 cm version is still not there, which is not so important I guess. Some nice new parts, but many of the old issues are still not resolved, which is kind of puzzling. Like the cable of steering servo, cable of large motor. Also, long time missing crucial elements like PF lights, pneumatic pumps etc are still not added, which makes me doubt if they'll ever be. -
Adjusting the linear actuator length in LDD
Chilekesh replied to Chilekesh's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
True, but I made the video for people that do not have MLCad / LDCad and LDraw installed and do not want to mess with them for whatever reason. Also, exporting to LDraw format always messes up some pieces in my experience. Making a template file and storing various lengths of rods has come in much more handier for me. -

Yeah, I see now... Sorry. Still, the video explanation may come in handy for less experienced users. :) -
Adjusting the linear actuator length in LDD
Chilekesh posted a topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Hi everyone, I searched a lot and was surprised nobody has addressed the issue of extending and retracting the actuators in Lego Digital Designer OR I was unable to find it - be it through searching here, google, youtube or any other means. So I discovered a little trick to do this. If it already exists here in these forums, then I'm really sorry and please accept my apologies. The trick involves exporting the file to *.lxfml and editing the coordinates of sub-components of actuators manually with text editor and is easily doable by anyone without the need for expertise or special tools etc. Below is my video of this: -
