[TC19] Custom Fat Boi
MP LEGO Technic creations replied to Ivorrr's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I like it, but there is a quite big problem here... I also came up with the idea of an "articulated" bike, but what about steering? If you will only steer, everything would be alright, but when you also tilt during cornering, the driver would have to push/pull the handlebars against the whole weight of the bike, wouldn't he? Anyway, interesting solutions were done here and hope the driver will be brawny enough . -
[TC19] The Predator - Concept bike
MP LEGO Technic creations posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hello everybody! A day ago I started to build a motorbike for the new contest. First of all I wanted a rimless bike, then, after many unsuccesful attempts, I gave up. Because I have only the off-road motorcycle tyres, I had to choose for this futuristic model some unusual ones - from the 42056 Porsche 911 GT3 RS set. It's not based on any real bike. Here's the current progress: 2-cylinder fake engine Steering 2 speed simple gearbox Suspension And some photos: -

Thank you. I'm delighted you like it because I put quite a lot of effort to make this shape. -

Yes, I asked @Jim. These wheels are allowed, aren't they? -

First of all, I'm glad you like it. And yeah, I also got an idea to use only 1 tyre per wheel, but it looks absolutely horrible... Finally, of course I'll make more detailed photos. -

So minor cosmetic updates are finally done. Here are contest photos: Thank you for visiting this topic. & Good luck to everyone in the contest! This expressed it well, so I let it be its name. Thx. Thank you! As I said before, the rear lights' solution is quite simple, but took me a lot of time to find it out. -

Many thanks. I really put a lot of effort to it. Some details still left to do. -

There are 2 offroad motorcycle tyres and two grooves on the rim (supposed to fit only one tyre) - so one groove per tyre's inner side. -

Thank you! The rear light also my favourite part. The solution is very easy but took me a lot of time to find it out. By the way, I took inspiration for the front suspension from your motorbike. -

[WIP] ROPA Tiger 6s beet harvester
MP LEGO Technic creations replied to MP LEGO Technic creations's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
As it's now, there are no problems with the small turntable. In fact the joint is strong enough even without any turntable, so I used it mainly because of its teeth as a gear. -

I also got this idea, but after some experiments, I decided for the small one, which anyway looks better. And what about its weight? Well, it's more than 3kg heavy now... I'm doing my best...the last finished model was my TC18 entry -
[WIP] ROPA Tiger 6s beet harvester
MP LEGO Technic creations replied to MP LEGO Technic creations's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well, there has been quite a lot of progress here. First of all, the chassis had to be completely rebuilt because the previous version was not solid enough. Here's how the structure looks like (the turntable placed here is not on the current chassis like this): This rebuild allowed me to cram more functions inside (only working steering wheel yet). And with the steering wheel, there's a little problem: because all of the ports of the hub were used, I couldn't fit another motor in here so i used the turntable's teeth as a gear which rotates the steering wheel. But what have I forgotten at is, that this vehicle has 2 axles steered. So when I steer only rear axle, the steering wheel doesn't move... Anyway here's how the model looks like now: Thank you for visiting this topic. & Comments are welcome. -

Some progress has been done since the last post. First of all, I've chosen new wheels. And I also started to rebuild the frame... And this is how it looks with those wheels. And here is a little attempt to build a V6 engine for it. Thank you for visiting this page! -

Hidden but still there... The bodywork isn't finished yet, so yes, I'm still not satisfied with many parts of it. -

I started to build the bodywork so here are some pics: The gearbox also had to be redone... 1) NEUTRAL 2) HIGH GEAR 3) LOW GEAR -

Thank you! Unfortunately I don't have many of those so not all of red axles could be replaced. Yes, this is a very good idea!
