    [MOC] Jeep Mighty FC

    Technonsense replied to Technonsense's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team

    No, the grey 20t beval gear is the one with the round centre hole and is only there to help to prevent slipping. I will make one as soon as we have good weather again here in South Africa! Thanks for the rest of the comments, I really appreciate it!

    I wanted to build a small rc version of a Jeep Mighty FC for a long time, and finally managed to do so: My main goal was outdoor performance, so I've used a XL motor geared down 1:2.78 for propulsion. A servo motor was used for steering. With only 12 studs between the insides of the wheel hubs, I had to squeeze in portal axles for the front and rear. Of course we also have suspension: The belly-shot: And the video(sorry for bad resolution): The chassis can be separated from the bodywork and battery in about 10sec. Although it was only possible to build in yellow, I tried to include as much detail as possible and did my best to hide most of the interior. I hope you like it. Feel free to leave your comments and criticism!

    [MOC]4x4 truck

    Technonsense replied to Technonsense's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team

    It is possible but, with a 11wide chassis, I prefer a smaller ground clearance to portal axles causing extra friction and slipping gears.

    This was supposed to be a Unimog 401 but things turned out a little different. some specs: Drive: XL motor geared 1:1 Steering: servo motor Openable doors etc It also has rear pendular suspension: And of course a belly-shot: I will make a video as soon as possible to prove its off-road performance. I hope you like it!

    LEGO TECHNIC 4X4 EXPEDITION CAR

    Technonsense replied to LEGO ADAM's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team

    I like your compact chassis. The XL motor is geared 1:1 to the wheels, right?

    Watch that guy's hand on the left side. It looks like he's pulling something...

    I can't see why the hub holders would not work. Good luck with your Avtoros!

    Lego Technic 8258 DumpTruck

    Technonsense replied to YamaLP's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team

    No, 8258's LA's are the strongest. Two would work if it is not the 24t clutch gears that are slipping.

    What a great little truck! I like the way how you managed to get it so narrow. Looking forward to your next mini!

    [TIP] Slackless gear meshing

    Technonsense replied to Didumos69's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team

    I use something quite similar to prevent bevel gears from slipping.
