    Honestly, I can't explain the difference. It seems many trial trucks have truck-based body... Anyway I added this MOC to Rebrickable.

    Today I shot the video under the sky at the first time.

    This MOC is my newest one. Not the LAST.

    As you see this construction looks odd. However, it is surprisingly robust.
  5. Madoca 1977
    Thanks! I tried add the yellow line on the body. Or red, blue, white... again and again. But black is cool!

    Hi, Looks too black? This is my latest creation. To be honest, it's not something new. It's not powerful... but is my first truck for T.T. Weight is 1245g. Lighter than 9398 crawler. Features, XL motor for driving. Servo motor for steering. M motor for 2 speed gearbox. (1st 5:1, 2nd 3:1) M motor for working front and rear LED lights Four wheel drive without differentials. Long travel suspension. Working fake V4 engine. Openable hood, doors and tailgate. Video Building instructions and more pictures: https://plus.google....4977943/albums�

    Yes, I'm a purist. But sometimes modified part is better choice. I tried to convince myself, "Extra space would be suitable for extra functions..."

    WIP...

    Thank you! :wub: Last year it started as my personal project. Finally this Truck became everyone's MOC. I'm very happy to see many Trucks built by EB members.

    How about this? https://plus.google....167471864977943

    Sorry, this model was disassembled in 2012. I didn't have any thoughts of making instructions at that time. There are no parts list for it.

    If it's a heavy model with suspensions, I am worry about suspension travel becoming shorter. I usually put lego tires underneath models.
  13. Madoca 1977
    The weight of chassis＋body was slightly heavy for 6 soft springs. Of course soft spring would work. It's necessary to double it or adjust the connection point to the suspension arm. This time I gave priority to symmetric construction.

    Thank you guys! Note: In the video 2:25, that degree of slope was the limit the truck can climb.

    Hello, Here is my first 6x6 model. 2L motors for driving, Servo motor for steering. Weight is 1180g. Motors and battery box are located on the middle of chassis. Front and rear suspensions are very soft. So, the Truck easily pitches up and down, climb over a certain level of obstacles. 3 differentials and 6 cv joints works pretty well, not broken or snapped at all in the video. Building instructions and more pictures:https://plus.google....64977943/albums Also I added this MOC to Rebrickable. I hope you enjoy it!

    Looks good! I think liftarms are better for large scale models required strong construction like rm8's Toyota Land Cruiser Prado.https://lh6.googleus...3_%25201_44.jpg
  17. Madoca 1977
    Now I submitted my PF Buggy to Rebrickable.
  18. Madoca 1977
    Suspension link with ball joint can put A-pillar in any angle. I like your idea! But I can use the link 9L, 6L, or new 5L steering arm... Wait, if I use the new steering arm as a part of hood or roof, I can connect any size of liftarms combined with towball pin(6628).
  19. Madoca 1977
    Older MOCs have no instructions. They are disassembled years ago, and I did not have any thoughts of making instructions at the time.
  20. Madoca 1977
    My new 6x6 model is almost finished. In a few days, I will make youtube video and share the instructions. I hope you like it! https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/117021167471864977943/albums/5971733026170652129/5971733054818650898?pid=5971733054818650898&oid=117021167471864977943

    I will try Rebrickable! Please give me a few days. (or weeks, maybe...)
  22. Madoca 1977
    Thank you, jantjeuh. Is it necessary to make LDD/LDraw files for Rebrickable? I'm not good at CAD files and some parts are not available in LDD.
  23. Madoca 1977
    Thanks for your opinions. In most cases, toggle joint parts are connected by small non-friction pin. That connection is weak. Chima/Bionicle female ball joint is 2 stud wide and too thick for Technic car pillar or roof. Some hinge parts seem to be better solution. But they are not common in Technic sets... http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=30552 http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=30553 Especially this one. http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=41532

    Sorry. I just shared the picture. https://plus.google....167471864977943

    Sorry for my English skill. Every time when I build a car, it is difficult for me to make A pillar. Car's pillar must be rigid and sturdy in real life. There are some ways known to Technic builders. Wikipedia Pillar (automobile) For example, 1. Combination of axles and flexible ones. (set 8070) 2. Toggle joint. (set 9398) This causes weak construction, I think. 3. Angle connectors with pin connectors. https://plus.google....167471864977943 This is my latest creation. https://plus.google....167471864977943 Recently I was very impressed by Victor Kojenov's Arctic Explorer. Simple, and no gaps on the roof! http://farm8.staticf...12a7026fa_o.jpg Is there anything new solution to the issue of both shape and rigidity?
