  1. It's all great but I'd love to see someone making LEGO fly in a more creative way than simply using over 3x normal voltage. Let's be honest, once you have unlimited power at your disposal, you can make anything fly.
  2. Today I've finally had a chance to take the new floating hulls - the first floating hulls in a Technic set,if I'm not mistaken - for a spin on a lake. Here's the footage with a few observations:
  3. I also made a Mercedes racing truck that went well over 18 km/h with a full body of panels, but the scale was smaller.
  4. Very nice MOC, excellent presentation, I'm just a little confused about this part: So what you're saying is that it's impossible to go faster at this scale? What's the top speed of your model? And on another note, did you experience any problems when driving with such small ground clearance?
  5. Than any gears, maybe. Than 10 gears of 5 various types in a $13 set? I doubt so. Check Bricklink, the 6.5L shock absorber comes in at least 100 various sets.
  6. I think it can hardly be called a suspension. As demonstrated in slow motion in my video, the buggy is too light to make any use of it, it only works if you press it down by hand. Bottom line is, the buggy offers a single shock absorber (worth about $0.7 on Bricklink) while the Claas offers 10 gear wheels of 5 various types. It's a simple choice.
  7. Thank you but I have to pass. I just don't have enough time. Plenty of talented builders to contact here.
  8. Sorry about the mistake. It totally escaped my notice.
  9. The Brickmania tank you've linked to is fairly small, it would be difficult just to make it drive straight with a motor, not to mention anything extra. Also, I'm not going to reverse-engineer their design because that's just feels unfair. Tell me what you want the model to do and at what budget, and if I pass, perhaps someone else will be interested.
  10. So, a minifigure scale tank with no functions? Sounds easy, why do you need somebody to do it?
  11. 1. There's no such word as Legos unless you mean some Greek island maybe. 2. I can't have a girlfriend. My wife won't let me.
  12. My first bus. Full RC with 5 motors and approximately 26 meters of wires. Photos: https://bricksafe.com/pages/sariel/solaris-urbino-18
  13. So far yes, all C+ sets have no B-models. I've heard through the grapevine that B-models cost a lot to develop and 90%+ buyers don't even try building them anyway.
  14. So here we go: 42109 Top Gear Rally Car 42108 Mobile Crane 42106 Stunt Show Truck And Bike: 42105 Catamaran: 42104 Race Truck: 42103 Dragster: 42102 Mini CLAAS XERION: 42101 Buggy:
  15. Yes. There's not much room inside a turntable once you put a gear inside it for driving.
  16. Well... rotating a heavily loaded turntable from the inside is not a good solution in my experience. And I suspect you'll need some cables going through it, too.
  17. I'm afraid the turntable you've picked is going to cost you a lot of trouble. It has significantly more friction that the newer 60-teeth turntable and in your project it's not supported in any way, so it has to handle the entire superstructure all on its own.
  18. The embargo date is still December 26th, 14:00 CET.
  19. December 26th 14:00 CET is the review embargo date this time.
  20. Not easy and not so useful, I think. Human eye isn't going to be able to tell 300 RPM from 400 RPM anyway. It's not a bug and it wasn't fixed. If you feel the need to try the biggest number possible, the app will let you. Have fun.
