    After finish studless 8480 Space shuttle, I found this is very fun to build. So I decided build another one and 8479 Barcode multi set is selected because it is same age with me and I like green.

    Thanks to lot of john deere sets relesed recently, lot of green parts is easy to getting. Except 32009 double bent beam.

    Of course I will build other 3 model of this set as alternative as this model like what I did in studless 8480.

    Function

    Both rear wheel is connected to rotary incoder for speed reading and L4 engine on cabin. Can motorised like original set. (Original model drive middle wheel only and don't have engine)

    Both rear wheel has pendular suspension. (Original set has simple lifting axle on rearmost wheel)

    Front wheel steering with HOG and steering wheel.

    Grabbing and lifting work using on force sensor on claw.

    Tilting dump bed using linear actuator and another force sensor which detect function select lever changing. (Like original set)

     

    I used spike prime hub and motor for testing but soon will change it to robot inventor's hub. Model is no 85~90% finished and need more green 9beam and programming.

    And cause my programming skill is not that good to make barcode reading, I will make it just like normal mindstorm set.

    My another WIP

    Fiat Abarth 131 rally car

    Function

    Mcpherson strut independent suspension on front

    Swing arm independent rear suspension

    RWD

    Spare tire on trunk

    Maybe I will add inline-4 engine and openable door, bonet, trunk. Now I need yellow small mudguard. Or now I considering use orange insted yellow. Orange huracan will be good part donor for this model.

    Mindstorms and Control+ has been allowed in many contests though and I'm sure will be in the future too, so nothing's preventing you from including them in your build. It's true that there has been no Mindstorms-focused contest, but I'm not sure if that's a great contest idea anyway, considering the lack of participation in some of the contests where programmable electronics would've fitted perfectly, like the transformation vehicle contest. There just doesn't seem to be too many builders here who are interested in those and also interested in contests.

    It's also noteworthy that Mindstorms was only recently merged to this forum, while it is my understanding that Model Team has been there since the beginning.

    All I asked for for the C+ contest was any hub, 4 motors, and no sensors. I don't think this condition is that difficult, and I think it's quite possible since we've already done something similar with the S Brick Contest. It is true that there were few participants in the transformation vehicle contest, but I think this may be due to the vagueness of the topic. I participated, but I couldn't think of any ideas, so I asked the local community for ideas.
    Regarding Mindstorm, as far as I know, it was a Technic & Mindstorm forum from the beginning, then the model team came in, Mindstorm left in response to a request to create a separate Mindstorm forum, and then merged again due to not enough posts. .

    Mine is

    Twin motor excavator

    All six functions of the excavator operate using only two motors. All drive shafts had to be routed without overlapping, and in the case of version 2, the lower part of excavator is quite dense.

    Studless 10262 DB5

    It retains the same size and all gimmicks as the original model, but has been made studless and added a working engine and steering system. In particular, the ejection seat and front machine gun were the most difficult.

    Studless 8480 Space shuttle A/B model

    Although the clutch gear and mixer drum were inevitably used, there was a personal constraint to reproduce model only with parts that were in production at the time, and while the bottom was made very thin with approximately 1 stud to accommodate the satellite, the axes and gears for the operation of the rear booster and landing gear were used. Of course it had to be durable at the same time. Also, after completing the A model space shuttle, I planned to build a B model submarine using only those parts. This part was also tricky too.
