Lego technic challenge final
grohl replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Looks great. Although I own more than 1/2 of those, I have to admit I envy you. I did not know that the crane box is that huuuge until I saw this photo. -

On Monday I got 8260 for my birthday. When I searched the Brickshelf for the alternative models, I found only Zblj's forklift (which is awesome btw). The only possible idea that came to my mind was the DRAGSTER. It has got an adjustable wheelie bar that can also serve as the brake.- 792 replies

Snow groomer
grohl replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thank you for the pictures. Looks a bit tricky but the only thing that matters is if it works. And it definitely does. -

I really like the way how you made the tracks. -

Thank you for your kind words. I tried my best and I was fortunately able to beat the number of the functions. My model has got 6 whereas the original 8052 has got 5. The sturdiness of this model is a bit improved compared to the original model. And as anything it also has some weak points. Connecting the air filters is definitely one of them, but there was no other way how to do it and I really wanted them on the model. The other one is the bonnet. If you look at the place where it is attached to the grille, it can rotate when you open it.- 792 replies

M motor should be fine, I think you can put there an 8-tooth gear except the 24, since the M-motor is much slower Thank god this is legged and not wheeled, but thank you for your praise. I never did anything in LDD, but when I have time, I will make photo instructions. HEAVY DUTY TOW TRUCK An alternative model of 8052 Container truck with working steering, towing arm, outriggers, opening doors and bonnet and tilting towing fixture. Video to come soon.- 792 replies

Forward and Right Steering
grohl replied to dolittle's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It has already been introduced in this set- 8472 By hitting the bumper the car changes the direction and steers when going reverse. After another hit to the bumper it goes straight forward. Great and very underrated set, although the block with motor is way too big and I did not find any place for it in any of my MOCs. -
Chopper
grohl replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Great MOC, I love the rider and the whole concept of the video. The steering mechanism of the chopper is great as well.
