Fasterthanlight's LEGO MOCs Thread
fasterthanlight posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hey there. I figured I'd start a new topic to document my current LEGO projects. For the time being this will all be LDD designs I've created, as I wait for some extra cash to spend on bricklink. 1. Scania Rotator Tow Truck Parts Count: 4400 Progress: 90% Complete Features: - Drive (RC) - Steer (RC) - Air Compressor (RC) - Outriggers deploy in/out (pneumatic RC) - Outriggers lift up/down (Pneumatic RC) - Towbar deploy in/out (pneumatic RC) - Towbar lift up/down (Pneumatic RC) - Boom rotate (RC) - Boom lift (RC) - Boom Extend - Winch 1 (RC) - Winch 2 (RC) - Battery Set switch (RC) You'll notice this truck has more than 8 functions. In total it has 7 PF IR Receivers. First IR Receiver controls the battery back switch, which is a PF Medium motor and two polarity switches that will turn on either battery back 2 (with 3 receivers) or battery pack 3 (With the other 3 receivers) This way I can split the functionality of the truck into two sets: - Drive - Steer - Towbar - Outriggers and - Boom lift - Boom rotate - Boom extend - Winch 1 - Winch 2 You'll notice I also took a lot of inspiration for the design of the cab from Efferman's doctor brick community project of the scania flat bed. 2. Firemen Movers Freightliner Moving Truck - I work for them, its a Toronto-based moving company owned and operated by firefighters Parts Count: 3200 Progress: 65% Complete Features: - Drive - Steer - Custom stickers - Pneumatic Powered tail gate (incomplete, working on the trigonometry of it) - Removable top with fully designed interior, including equipment 3.
