[TC12] The Mean Machine

Charbel posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling

So this my participation to the TC12. I was definitely not planning to participate but as I was looking for some ideas across Google Images, I saw the Mean Machine and instantly saw a possible use of the 42069 wheel arches. So it all started with these wheel arches and adapted the scale to it. I didn't had a lot of time to work on it though, the school is taking more and more time, and the only time available was the Friday nights and a few hours on the weekends. So I started with the cabin and then worked on the rear reactor. It took me quite a few tries to get the scale right and something that looks good. I manage to find a simple build with the mini panels. The wacky function was the hardest part of the whole build, I must have spent more than 10 hours to get it right. Anyways, I'm pretty happy with the final result. There is obviously propulsion and direction with a removable HoG. So let me introduce you the wacky fonction : folding propellers to fly over the other participants ! Instead of some complex explanations, I advise you to see the video to understand how it works.
