Probably, but that's likely to be going far in the future. -
Pretty sure the same could be said about the pop-up book.
-
It's probably the fact that their submission rejection rate is somewhere around 95%. Just guessing, though.

More photos and description: http://sariel.pl/2018/11/4x4-jeep-wrangler-trailcat/ Added the link to the first post, too.

It's your fourth post on a project that probably won't even reach that 10,000 votes. Relax mate.
-
So can a stone :) What's your problem, does it say anywhere that this project is 42070's competition? Did a set as crappy as the 42070 suddenly become a golden standard for judging other sets? I don't think so. 8043 was an excellent RC set, for example. And it didn't require you to come and switch functions by hand like the 42070 does.
-
And I wouldn't put the abhorrent 42070 set in my profile pic, but to each their own :) The 42070 was only huge because it was full of air and empty space, BTW, and the price it came with easily justified 4 motors, not 2. Look, don't vote if you don't like it and move on with your life. I made compromises that I thought were reasonable. You're free to feel differently and to submit your own stuff to Ideas. The project is over 9,300 votes short from even being considered, so no need to lose any sleep over it.

1. XL motor is way too large to fit in. 2. LEGO will probably just use gears or open diffs if this project ever gets approved. 3. The axles can fall off in upside-down position, but the battery box will still remain in place.
-
That is completely wrong. Not only LEGO never claimed that Technic is banned from Ideas somehow, but the Ideas designers specifically told me that they are welcoming Technic submissions and looking forward to a suitable project.
-
Far from ideal, I know, but one needs to compromise at this scale. It's still better than open diffs ;)
-
So here's the idea: seeing as all large and complex Technic submissions have failed on LEGO Ideas so far, I set out to create a very small and simple, yet fully functional 4x4 crawler. This is the result, which can be considered the 9398 set on a budget ;) as it offers pretty much the same functionality in a considerably smaller package. If you're willing to give this project a shot at becoming a set (a Technic Ideas set would be nice, at long last), please support it here: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/ba4cebf3-1f80-497d-9ecb-faee2dbc1df3 Photos and description: http://sariel.pl/2018/11/4x4-jeep-wrangler-trailcat/

Take it easy, all that hostility towards me is gonna give you ulcers.
-
I'm talking about running two functions through a turntable, which is what your solution could do.
-
There's also a way to do this with an empty t16/t24 differential. Much easier, I would say, since the entire differential is just one piece.
-
Is there some gear reduction between the universal joints and the wheels? Edit: nevermind, found it.

Tips from helpful people. I got two of the stolen videos taken down, BTW. For future reference, this is where you can report stolen videos: https://www.youtube.com/copyright_complaint_form

There's a new video thief in town: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcxGTIN05d8pMLSAwd_N2QQ/videos I've already reported two of my videos but he stole many more. If you report some of yours, there's a good chance that YouTube will take down the entire channel.

The word is outriggers. Pardon me, but you keep using the wrong word.

I had some trouble with BuWizz units running dry in a matter of minutes, so I didn't try it. Most industrial solvents work just fine. I honestly can't think of a less suitable vehicle for drifting.

Here's a quick spontaneous build created to blast through piles of fallen leaves in a park. Full info and photos: http://sariel.pl/2018/10/mercedes-benz-tankpool-racing-truck/

I'd love to but I can't afford buying these sets anymore, especially since the reviews didn't get that much traffic.
-
I've already sold the Porsche to a German collector, for a lower price but without motors.
-
Yes, the guy who won said he won't pay. Because the Internet is filled with kind, bright people.
-
That's 100% certain, since the guy who bought the car refused to pay.
