Thank you very much.

It was sent with the picture of version 1.0. This is slightly improved version not only in design. They did not, but they nearly cut my index finger off. I was surprised how it hurt when I accidentally crossed the way of both rotors.

Manta My entry for the May round of the LEGO Technic Challenge. 48.5cm long future police helicopter. Two intermeshing 36 cm rotors and 7cm push propeller are powered by 1 M motor. The propeller can move to the left right by means of 1 micro motor. Retractable landing gear, working lights, opening cockpit and side doors. If you want, you can join me on Facebook here http://www.facebook.com/pages/grohls-LEGO/107287526029770 I made this profile to let people that like my MOCs know what I build and to see some work in progress photos which I never post on forums. Click the first picture for the video

Nice MOC. I like the fact that you were able to make all the functions remote controlled. Do you know how many disks did you use for building the attachment?

Perfectly correct, and the headrests are not in the same angle.

Surprisingly, the Czech AFOLs think the opposite way. I would rather use the panels, but UNIMOG is still not available And the plates allowed me to put the numbers on the wings. I will make the video as soon as the sun makes its way through the clouds in Czech Republic. David, unfortunately all of them "passed away" to help the others grow. But I can make a photo with the 1/72 scale Viggen plastic model or my new Manta police helicopter, which I am going to show you soon.

This thread starts to look like a deja vu trapped in a time loop.

Looks well, seems strong.

Thanx a zillion for these.

Not again. I am not going to build another bird lifting weights :)

Whats wrong with the kids nowadays? My RC boat had to evade a stone attack once. Anyway, simple and working design.

The canards are not used to control the plane. They just serve as flaps, so I had had to put two functions into a space which was previously used for only one. There also some things missing on the model or things I am not satisfied with. The side air brakes on the fuselage, pitot tube on the vertical stabilizer and air intakes for cooling electronics are missing. The thrust reverser is upside down since there was no other way how to put it to the engine nozzle. This is it-3 months of my work (of course not every day and all the time). Hope you like it as I do. Video to come soon. THE GALLERY

Absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful details and everything has its place and function.

Me neither, but I have to say it pays off. The engine is absolutely amazing.

I think I am in love with the plow version.

Very decent looks and unusual colour scheme together with a plenty of panels... yes, I will buy it.

Amazing job on catching the curves of this car.

Welcome, my Czech fella. Your telehandler looks pretty cool. I have another idea for an alternate on my mind, but the time is what I lack.

Still waiting for the video, but I could not help myself to leave this creation without commenting. I love the number of functions and some details as the convertible rooftop and the front lights modelled out of pneumatic tubing. Probably the best Porsche.

Same for me and the front grille is amazing as well.

It looks so damn well that it is hard to believe it is "just" LEGO.

I envy you...a lot.

Coincidence or not, my chopper has a bro. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=471368
