Shockwave Jet Engine Truck
SamBo posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This is something I've been meaning to build for ages now, but have only just gotten around to it. It's a Peterbilt Semi, with 3 Jet engines. The real truck does 6.63 second quarter miles! The model has working steering via the steering wheel inside the cabin. The doors also open and close. Photos are here: https://www.flickr.c...57648191247038/ Thanks for looking. -
Lego Technic Race Truck
Lucio Switch posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi to everyone!! This is my Lego Technic Race Truck. I upload pictures an video about one month ago, but at that moment I wasn't subscribed to this forum. I know that bmollema had done one copy of it in Red and Black (but with some improvement and a differnt drivetrain, XL motors in place of the RC Buggy Motors) and he had done a topic with his version, but i will be glad to know what you think about it. For more detail take a look at: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/394095 For Hi-Quality pics at: https://www.flickr.c...57647108848760/ or you can see a video of it at: Thanks!! -
Hello, I want to share my latest MOC with you guys. My creation is the common garbage truck in Taiwan street! Thanks for watching!!!

Hello there! Here's my little creation - red monster truck. In fact, when I was biulding it, I didn't keep in mind the original red truck by Lego so it was not my intention to make them look alike (plus I don't have any other colours besides red so...). All the controls are manual. Features: - full independent suspension - manually openable doors and trunk - HOG steering - poorly designed interrior with one seat - manually openable hood (via linear actuator) - fake V6 (driven by rear wheels through the differential) The whole photoset is here while here I think it would be more convenient to post only some of them. Thanks.

This model is a modified version of the 2014 set 76015, Dock Ock Truck Heist. It was inspired by eurotrash48903 and his own MOD of the set to be 7 wide. I didn't change it quite as much as him, but I did follow his lead in several spot, such as shortening the frame by 2 studs and getting rid of the ridiculously over-sized original wheels. The roof and front have been strengthened and a door added to the rear, as their was none before. Here is the original set: http://www.bricklink...m.asp?S=76015-1 Front view. I strengthened the rods on the front grille / fender, among other things. Rear view showcasing the door and rear fender. Here is a link to the inspiration for this MOD, eurotrash48903 and his thread: http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=100384 Here is the 100% build-able model in LDD file format: http://www.mocpages....1411148366m.lxf NOTE: In the LDD file, the model is partially grouped. Those parts are the ones that come in the 76015 Dock Ock Truck Heist set. The UN-grouped parts are the ones that I modded the truck with.

Modifying the Spiderman Doc Ock Truck for City use I can't resist a bargain and in my local supermarket they had the Lego 76015 Doc Ock Truck Heist marked down by 33%. I thought at the very least I could use it as a parts pack. It's a straightforward enough build and has plenty of playability - exploding roofs, catapulted swinging spiderman and a dextrous Doc Ock, but good grief there was no way it was going to fit into my City! The wheels are massive! The rear wheel positioning is bizarre and the whole thing looks obviously like it came from a comic book (I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised by that ) So, I dumped the comically large wheels, reduced the wheel span by three studs by moving the rear wheels away from the very back of the truck and reduced the overall length by two. I reworked the front end to give it a more modern feel and tweaked the color scheme. I lost the exploding roof function and cleaned up the roof line. Here's a comparison of the original wheel base and those clownish wheels to this new version One final shot So, what's the point of this post? I suppose it's seek out bargains and modify them to suit your needs. I know I'll be looking for other vehicles to mod - after I've turned this one into a 7-wide one. Edit: I reworked the front end to make it less blocky, turned the back shell of the truck into 7-wide by using jumper plates. I also increased the overall height by 1 plate and cleaned up the roof line.

[MOC] Front Loader Compactor Truck
MrTekneex posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hello eurobrickers! I am glad to present to you my latest model. It is a front loader compactor truck. The model is composed of approximately 3,000 pieces, with motorized functions and pneumatic system. The 6 motors (2XL and 4M ) control the following functions: - drive (actual speed ratio 1:9, slow to drive cause i wanted more precision for catching of the box) - steering - pump compressors - packer panel / ejector panel - tilting cab - loader arm - hopper opening All functions are RC, excluding the air valve levers that control: - pneumatic forks - tailgate Other functions: - Fake V8 engine - Openable doors - 2 differential - Second axle with 4 wheels Probably in the future I will create building instructions. Here is the video. Some pics Loader arm Full open -
[MOC] American 4-axle Dump Truck
Waler posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi Folks It’s been a long time since I presented my last creation so it’s good time to show something new. Maybe this MOC it is not so fresh (I built it almost 2 months ago) but I think worth to present. The truck was built to my local Lug (LugPol) competition and the goal was that the wining truck will be an accompany to the 42030 Volvo L350F on our Lug exhibition. There was three other trucks built to this contest. But mine got most votes The prize of the contest was outstanding – beside that I received the set for the review, finally I got whole new 42030 for my own! And this is the truck which “made it”: American 4-axle Dump Truck. The truck is fully motorized, it has 2XLs for propulsion, 1 Servo Motor for steering, 2 Medium motors for rising the tipper and hazard lights on top of the roof. The truck weights 2750g, dimensions are: 51,2 x 16,8 x 19,6 cm. It is Powered by two Battery Boxes placed on both sides of the truck. The access is very easy so you can change batteries quickly. In the front there is one pair of PF LEDs and second one is mounted in the rear of the truck. As I mentioned on the roof there are hazard lights. The blinking lights are made from 1x4 Light Brick connected to PF switch which is turned on and off by micromotor. (PF LEDs are connected to the same switch) Rising tipper is operated by two large linear actuators and truck can dump up to 2kg. Drivetrain – only two rear axles are driven – total gear reduction is 1 : 4.2. Enough power to carry and ride with even 7kg of load. Overall appearance you have to judge yourself. I was trying to do my best in two weeks but I think that it’s not bad at all Under the hood you can find V8 engine. And at the end - video. -
Small Offroad Race

Here's a clip of a race between two very different offroad machines Chettah 4x4 and Fox 8x8x8. Also what do you think of the navigation bar made using annotations? -
Hi all, after a bit of a road trip I had a pretty good idea on how to construct the trucks that are commonly seen driving between cities in Australia. I decided to go with a general long nose truck with a sleeper cab and not a specific make or model to allow a bit of freedom with the design, but with minor bodywork or accessory changes it could be changed. I based the dimensions on the 3221 LEGO truck set from 2010. As it stands now, the truck is 6 wide (with nothing but the side mirrors and wheels protruding out past the fenders), 22 studs long and just over 10 bricks high. The entire truck is built on a 2x16 plate for a sturdy chassis with a fair bit of weight down low for stability. I borrowed most of the rear axle and tail light area from 3221 for commonality between the two but will be tweaking it as it is pretty boring back there right now. The sleeper cab can accommodate a minifig on the bed but it is a bit of a tight squeeze and I haven't built in any luxuries back there yet. Up in the cabin the driver is a bit confined too and I still have to get a steering wheel in there somehow. Moving forward to the bonnet and a couple of the parts are still floating, I'll fix this up when I figure out how to build a hinged bonnet and add an engine to the mostly empty space in there. I left the two studs on the nose to use as an attachment point for a bull bar when I can think up a beefy enough design and the jumper plate below represents the hitch where multiple trucks connect up. For access to the cabin, both doors are hinged but the side mirrors limit how far they swing out. The roof is made of two sections with the front consisting of the windshield and cabin roof floating but secured in place by several key points. The rear section is the sleeper cab roof which rest on the cabin roof and the back wall of the sleeper cab. Two studs secure this in pace but should allow for easy removal. I'll keep fine tuning this for a little bit longer, it only took a couple of hours to knock this first version out so it shouldn't take too much longer to get it finished. In the mean time let me know what you think. Update: I ended up tweaking the bonnet so now it's attached by a 1x2 plate with stick to 2 1x1 plates with upright holders on the frame. There's also a simple engine block underneath but it's main purpose is to hold the air filters and doors in place as they are still floating. A steering wheel wedges the air filters and door assembly in place nicely and I think the nose is done now. I still have to do a bull bar but for now I'm trying to build this with what I have on hand.

[MINI] Garbage Truck
zweihander posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi everyone, here is my entry to the MINI contest. First, a little background info. It's been around a month since I woke up from my dark ages, and I can say that this is my first MOC that looks somewhat like the real thing :) It's a garbage truck, with the lifter mechanism in the front. It has two or three functions, depending on what you call a function :) 1 - The front lifter mechanism, obviously, 2 - The container section tilts for dumping, 3 - The back part opens automatically when the container is tilted. The right dark bluish gray connector controls the tilting, and its left light bluish gray counterpart controls the lifter. This version is around 180 pieces. I have some modifications in mind, that will probably pull the part count around 200, but will improve the looks. (hint: headlight and tail light sections.) I also want to modify the lifter mechanism and squeeze in steering if I can but I haven't had a chance to work on it in the past week, so, time will tell :) I like the color scheme a lot, I think it suits a garbage truck quite nicely. I don't like the tires though, but I can't find smaller tires that fit the scale. The current ones are from 42023. Do you have any suggestions? Hope you guys like it. P.S. : Thanks for this great contest, it's helping me a lot in experimenting with building techniques. Apparently I forgot a lot in the past 15 lego-less years (I am 29). I built two other entries before this: one tow truck and one snow groomer, but both were too big. -
Hi, I just want to have your comments about this modern version of the set 6653 LDD file Thanks!

[MINI] Service Truck
CharlieBravo posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi All Welcome to my first entry (and post) on Eurobricks. After recieving the CUUSOO Delorean as a gift from my lovely partner (20 years since I packed away my lego as a child!), I decided to google about modern lego. Wow, was I impressed - lego sure has come a long way. Anyway, I stumbled across Eurobricks (some impressive MOCs here!), and when I saw the contest I decided to dust off my old sets (well, what few I had - 8035, 8020, 8054 and that vintage), and give it a go. After looking at the other entries, it feel a bit out of place - it's not that mini, and not exactly modern technic (is this allowed?), but perhaps in 1994 TLG may have released this model Anyway, here are 193 non-randomly selected pieces. Grouping in lots of 10 helps with the counting. Some sort of chassis forming. The boom at the back. With functions of a tow rope, raise and lower arm, and to extend/retract wheel holder. The finished model. Four functions in total: -4 wheel steering -Raise/lower boom -Tow hook on string -extend/retract wheel holder I would love to make the boom only 4-studs wide (to be more realistic), but it will exceed the part count. [Edit] - main photo below, now with lego string from a 42009. Edit - view of the raise/lower mechanisms. Given the restricted range of movement, rotation around a large gear works. -Charliebravo -
[MINI] Truck with Trailer and Wheel Loader
Appie posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I like to present my Mini for the contest, it is a truck with trailer and a wheel loader: After finishing my little dump truck last week I came up with this idea instead of trying to cut down the parts of the little dump truck from 350 or so to 200. And to be honest I am glad I went with this idea. Was alot of fun and it provided alot of challenges, but I got everything in the model that I wanted with exactly 200 parts. A total of 9 functions (10 if you count adjustable seats in the truck) I managed to put in this entry. One function actually shares his with another and came to be by chance actually. I didn't plan it, it just happened when I placed a part for which all I had to do was turn it around to make it even more functional, but more about that later. Allow me to go over each part seperately: 1. The truck with a total of 97 parts. Could be a considered a "Mini" on its own I suppose. It has the following functions: - HoG steering - Rear suspension - Fifth wheel lock 2LegoOrNot2Lego actually inspired me for the fifth wheel with the version he has on his awesome US Truck T1 MkII. I wanted that on my little truck, but I had to do it on a much smaller scale so I didn't fully look at how his worked, just knew it had rubber bands. My fifth wheel requires a little manual assistance to function (don't have to open them this far to get the trailer in there). Trailer uses a technic crankshaft to lock into the fifth wheel And this is how it looks attached. The suspension on this model is actually an improved version of the one I made for my little dump truck. Originally the truck for this had a 5 stud wide chassis like the little dump truck, but after making the wheel loader this 7 stud wide body looked too big in scale (and had a wooping 135 parts). So I made a 5 stud wide truck, which means I had to refine the suspension from the little dump truck from 5 studs to 3 studs. This was a challenge, but making the centre of the rear chassis from connectors instead of liftarms made my day. But Appie this truck is 6 studs wide? Yes, the 5 stud wide truck looked too slim so I tried a 6 stud wide body while keeping the chassis 3 studs wide for a better look (works better with the tires too in my opinion). 2. The wheel loader with a total of 57 parts It has the following functions: - Articulated steering through gear on top of the cabine - Bucket lift through control at the rear - Bucket tilt with hinge Added bonus for me personally is that it uses less parts than Lego's smallest technic loader, but this one can steer Can't wait to see how it looks besides the 42030 3. The trailer with 46 parts. This was a real challenge. Before even starting this I remade the truck like 3 times to get the parts down to what it is now. I took apart the wheel loader for the same reason, but 46 parts is what I had to work with and I managed to get the functions in that I wanted to. Though they are a little simple in execution (as in: very direct), but that also happens in "Mini" Lego sets, so I guess it fits It has the following functions - Ramp that can be lowered - Stand that can be lowered - And the double function: the stand also functions as a lock for keeping the wheel loader in place during transit. The ramp at the end provides this feature a little too of course, but the stand really locks it into place, it can't move at all. I call it "the hook" Let me explain the hook with some pictures. This is how the stand would be during transit. When the stand is deployed the wheel loader can move a little, but is quickly stopped by the ramp at the end, so no crazy stuff will happen when standing still The wheel loader has an open space behind its front axle, the 2x4 liftarm fits perfectly in this space. Here you can see how it looks on the model: Thank you for your time and I hope you all like it. Big thank you to Eurobricks for this fun contest. It's alot of pictures, hope you don't mind. I like showing stuff Photo of the parts will follow soon (will have to disassemble it first). -
Scania Logging Truck 1:10
Porsche96 posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Welcome everybody :) My name is Michał, I come from Poland and I’m 18. It's my first MOC showed here. Scania Logging Truck This truck is made in scale 1:10. The total size is: 113 studs of length, 29 of width and 37 of height (90/23/30 cm). It weighs 6,3 kg, has 10 motors and a lot of parts. Specifications: 1:10 scale lenght 113s / width 29s / height 37s Weight: 6,3kg 10 motors 4x6 drive Front independent suspension Rear floating suspension History From some time I've been planning to build something huge, when I had started building I didn't really know what I want to build. I chose Scania used to transporting wood. I built it from November to March. There was a 2-speed gearbox, but then there wasn’t enough space for crane and turntable. Suspension Front suspension is independent. For depreciation there are used 2 springs form the 9,5L absorber (from Unimog) and 2 springs from the yellow 6,5L absorber per each wheel. Rear suspension is floating, based on the elements of Unimog. For deprecation there are used 2 springs from the yellow 6,5L absorber per each axle. Driving To drive I used two XL motors with reduction 7:1.They are connected electrically and mechanically. Steering To steer I used one M motor with reduction 5:1. The drive is passed to 1x4 gear rack. Pneumatic The compressor is driven by M motor with the ratio 1:1. The servo motor conrols the valve and with M motor is connected electrically, so when the compressor is working the valve opens or closes. The Crane Rotation The rotation is based on the turntable, which is driven by M motor with ratio 168:1. The crane rotates only 180°, because of the pneumatic lines brought to the gripper. First section It is connected directly with the turntable. There are 2 linear actuators, driven by XL motor with reduction 3,5:1, responsible for lifting the second section. Second section It is connected to the first section. There is 1 linear actuators, driven by M motor with ratio 4,6:1. It is used to lift the third section. Inside there is a M motor responsible for rotating the gripper. Third section and the gripper To the third section there is connected the gripper, which is closed and opened by 1 large pneumatic cylinder. The rotation is driven by M motor with reduction 58:1. Outriggers Outriggers are built from mini LAs and driven by M motor. Others functions: Openable doors and cabine Headlights LED Working V8 dummy Some photos GALLERY -
My take on a Ford F-350 with a 3" Lift kit, Commests/ suggestions on what is liked/ disliked would be greatly appreciated.

When building trucks (pickups, trial trucks, etc.) that have motorized winches, do you use a dedicated motor for the winch, or use a distribution transmission from the main drive motors? A dedicated motor would be simpler, but then you'd need a separate channel for it and the motor would be dead weight when you weren't using the winch. Using the drive motors would allow re-use of the (presumably powerful) drive motors, and with a differential you could have the motors drive the vehicle forward as they also pulled the winch in - which seems useful when using the winch to self-extract the truck. On the other hand, a distribution transmission would add additional complexity. Specifically, I was thinking of (at some point) building a part-time 4x4 pickup with a winch on the front, which would have the following modes of operation: FWD high 4x4 low winch retraction (with the drive wheels in forward or neutral, for self-extraction; or the wheels locked by a brake, in order to use the winch to pull another vehicle) winch extension (by hand, using a ratchet or something similar to avoid having to back-drive the winch motor) I would probably use 2 XL motors and would lean towards using a distribution transmission for the winch. What do you think? -

I got the Highway Pickup set a few weeks ago, and put it together in the main configuration, (its a 3 in 1 Creator set) but felt it looked a little off. To me, it was way too short a truck for the size of the cab. It also had a really steep angle to the flatbed when loading a car onto it, in its original configuration. So I decided to make it a little longer. I added a 4 x 12 plate to the back end of the flatbed, and reinforced it underneath to handle the extra length. I am still a little unhappy with how it looks, the wheelbase is a little short still, but I'm not going to mess with that part of it. It looks good enough now for me. I can even haul the Palace Cinema limo on it. The truck is a little bit oversize for minifies maybe?!

Oxidized Monk by The Mugbearer, on Flickr Lore: This granddaddy has seen a lot in it's long life. There are still living witnesses on Fostral who saw it triumph in the big race from Incubator. They mopped the floor with those four boneheaded quizzers Zeexen on their right-on dragsters, and copped guns from them worth wads of beebs. Fortune lives in this machine. Creator's comments: So this is mechos, a fantastic vehicle from an old game Vangers made by Russian studio K-D Lab. So much memories... It's now available on Steam! If you brave enough, go and get it! And good luck on the roads of the Lost Chain. Also, the render took me 30+ hours. Reference image: Click

Small Abnormal Truck 10x10
jorgeopesi posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Just a small abnormal truck. It has five functional axles with steering in the two first ones, no suspension, no differentials it has nothing . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VD3-NFjLlGs&feature=youtu.be[/url]
