    Cheers! Here is the test video. I had a lot of fun testing and it held up extremely well. I estimated the best angle it managed was about 51 degrees. I think it can do better with a more gripper surface. Please sign in and Rate, Comment and Subscribe! I spent most of the day making this video, LOL.

    Should have a short video up in about 4 hours times. Thanks for all the nice comments!

    I will Zblj tomorrow! And thanks too. Thanks, I just looked, and unfortunately it wont, cos of half a stud! When I lower it tomorrow, hopefully it will. Yes they are the unimog rims, and I will find a link to those tires, I paid around $5 AUS which is pretty good!

    Thanks, I assembled them myself. From different shocks, the black ends from some old bike sets.

    LOL, I wish, but you just gave me an awesome idea! I will build a test track from chipboard with hills and stuff, and put some cheap sandpaper over it as grip.

    HAHAHA, Thanks mate! I know I want to make a video baddd, but the cool rocks are far away....

    There are adapters for the NXT motors to fit to more regular PF connections. Dang should have mentioned that. Thanks!

    I was planning on building an elevator later this year hopefully with nxt or Ev3. There is an awesome vid on youtube somewhere where a worker above the elevator records in HD how everything works. If I find it I will link it here. Apart from that all I know is you will need a counter weigh the the lift itself.

    What about spraying parts?

    Doc_Brown replied to piterx's topic in General LEGO Discussion

    I have thought about spraying parts, I wanted to make a white frame for my crawler but there are not white connectors and it will look stupid otherwise. @ jon. If you use good paint I don't see why it would come off, like citadel paint. I need an airtank to test, anyone lend me one????? you know 1 x 11 orange goes for like 7 E each, used on BL??? I know they only come from one 2002 model now, but geez......

    Wow that is really interesting, keep up the good research! I don't have a rpm reader so can't try these things. Don't worry man, I have a LOT of experience with pinion gears and such.
  12. Doc_Brown
    WOW. that's a really interesting test, so the weaker magnets equal higher RPM? I'm hoping that with a bit of "force" it will fit 2mm, hahaha.

    NIce model! I think that's a good effort for 8 hours. So I'm guessing that you are Australian? From that link.
  14. Doc_Brown
    WOW, thanks David! I wonder what the Aussie equivalent would be? Baking soda?

    Heres the motors that are available of the shelf here in OZ. Im thinking the ym-2716 as it is 27mm dia, so will fit inside 4x8x4 studs, and has a draw of .28a so 2 could be powered by a battery box and still be almost twice teh power of the RC motors.

    yeh a 64 Lincoln Continental is awesome! Deff my fav with suicide doors. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2359192/1964-lincoln-continental/

    Such a stunning crane! It looks fantastic, you did a great job on it, well done. :thumbup: The amount of weight it can lift is awesome!
  18. Doc_Brown
    That is sweet! Very very cool. :thumbup: When I think of lowriders, I think of very wide low American cars with a soft top down. I really hope you come up with something like that. Good work tho!
  19. Doc_Brown
    OK cool 800ma it is. So if you want 2 of the most powerful motors per battery box you really can't exceed 280ma per motor. Yeh my motor is a dud, i can see the magnets inside are not alighted, obviously not glued in correctly. and its making a screechy sound now. hahaha My local electronic store sells good motors, I will post there data sheet soon. trying to get one that's 27mm dia, so will fit in a 4 x 8 battery box (old one) Thanks for the info
  20. Doc_Brown
    Yes, I agree too. From all my old Lego only white seems to be really affected by UV, turning yellowish.
  21. Doc_Brown
    Really? can you show a picture of that please?
  22. Doc_Brown
    Thank you very much, but the "closer" folder is not public. :)
  23. Doc_Brown
    I sure wouldn't mind more pics, of the truck wheels off and suspension, if you don't mind. Cheers

    I really first noticed it on the Unimog, all those different shades of orange, Kinda ruined the biggest set ever! At the moment I have a huge collection of dark bluish grey plates from all over the world. Putting them together is a real pain as I have to blend from lightest to darkest. I really hope they improve this soon. Thanks for that! I now feel "informed". So there was a great war in 2004! Yeh I missed that....

    The chassis I'm making involves both new and old technic, a challenge to combine, but fun trying! I'm hoping to study some of your pics to help my problems. Just remembered Jeremy Clarkson "tested" a Magnum on Topgear. haha
