  1. Sometimes is always for me at the moment, I lost my motivation a few months ago and I don´t see anything that excites me to build, I had some hope deposited in the next new pieces... I hope this thread helps to more than one.
  2. Clean and very playable, when I see your MOCs I always think why the hell I didn´t do that before ,
  3. I am thinking what to write but someone wrote it first. One of the worst Technic sets I have ever seen.
  4. I always use technic steering parts for their robustness, turning point, axle is not visible and narrower axles but I admit that they offer less floor clearance, why did not you use them?, I mean the pieces of the 42056, 8653 or 42039, for example two pics of my current MOC. Thank you for your instructions I always learn a lot.
  5. Awesome MOC, 1 or 2 studs narrower would have been even better IMO.
  6. We have problems when we pay more for new worst cars IMO.
  7. Maybe something over 400 euros in any case .
  8. I putted one XL motor above the rear axle with the battery in the middle, I used 3 24th gears one of them with clutch because my children will break it soon without the clutch, it works fine.
  9. I agree, my last hope are the new pieces and it is very sad...
  10. You can see how they work in my old tatras, I think two studs travel is enough for small scale tatras. 10x10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyiipnWu5nE or kolos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsCBj8-_Im0
  11. 4 years since my last tatra and a few months since I don´t build for myself so I started with something simple, a 4x4 tatra. My goals are simple, fun, easy to build and robust. The steering in tatras is the funny part to do because is almost impossible to make it perfect, mine it was... but with inverted ackerman steering , I can do three things to solve it, leave it this way because it will work, turn the steering but the chassis will be less simple or use the steering I used in my old tatras. The suspension uses rubber bricks and I don´t know yet what motor I will use and neither the look, tatra dakar or t815?.
  12. My first large scale car was a skyline V12 , everybody has a first step.
  13. That is the problem I like the most, my advice is search, test and invent different combinations, the funny part is the process and If I tell you the answer I'm taking a lot of fun, I say that because I love build tracked vehicles. This is my brickshelf page (http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=jorgeopesi), you will see a lot of tracks.
  14. I love the old wheels and of course the entire MOC, the front part is great.
  15. Again another great MOC I really envy your skills.
  16. I've done a lot more but why not share them from now on. First one the truck for carry cars and second one a RC car with ackerman steering by small linear actuator and L motor, simple and resistant constructions for a 3 years old child, he takes them everywhere and with the truck even sleeps so I need them not to be disarmed...
  17. Other than that the only thing I've done is shaved a 3l stop pin to mimic the new brown ones I also did it but I don´t feel guilty at all, when I see abusive prices for parts that I can do I don´t care, another part I have done is the 11 axle. The only thing I remember and I still care it was cut a 12 axle to get one of 2 because I was lost it, it was my first set technic and I didn´t have spare parts, I don´t know if I bothered more lose the 2 axle than cut it, It was the 8848 set more than 30 years ago...
  18. I agree with Aventador 2004 the 9394 set is a good start, it is a plane and it is easy to build, perfect for an approach to the Technic.
  19. I love all your MOCs this included.
  20. Purism for me is the whole world building with the same pieces so the difference between MOCs only depends on the person, so although I recognize the value of all MOCs I only take as a reference that of those who use only Lego parts, those are my goal and my inspiration. Is a nice thread to read full of respect and points of view .
