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. -

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? -
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.

Thank you but I have to pass. I just don't have enough time. Plenty of talented builders to contact here. -

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. -

So, a minifigure scale tank with no functions? Sounds easy, why do you need somebody to do it? -

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. -

Liebherr LTM 1400-7.1

Yes. There's not much room inside a turntable once you put a gear inside it for driving.- 18 replies

Liebherr LTM 1400-7.1
Sariel replied to TheItalianBrick's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
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.- 18 replies

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 replies

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.
