  1. By removing the two semi-studs from the engine cylinder on the entrance side the problem is resolved - sometimes balls don't have enough velocity to jump over those studs and miss a cycle, requiring the weight of a second or third ball to push them in..... OMR
  2. The blue slopes have recesses on the underside that the 2x4's fit into
  3. Further to Blakbirds words of caution about configuring the Tall Spiral. I completed this module over the weekend - it looks and runs very well indeed and is an excellent companion to the standard version. As important as it is to take care when setting the tracks it is also important to align the drive sprockets on the shaft. Since on this module the tracks are acting like two Plastic Modular Belts (PMB) running on common drive shafts - sprocket alignment may cause problems if not set-up correctly. Since the sprockets are 10 tooth - these are considered an odd number in PMB speak - the drive shafts (Axles) are square with four drive sides therefore 10 divided by 4 is uneven (2.5). This means the sprocket teeth need to be aligned correctly - you will notice when adding more than one sprocket per shaft the teeth may or may not align - keep moving the sprocket one notch on the axle until they are aligned. Unaligned sprockets cause the belt to run rough and sometimes jump on the sprockets. OMR IMG_1647 by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr
  4. Great work indeed - Thanks. Looking forward to building this one.
  5. Don't despair with Mocplans/Flash the instructions can be downloaded as PDF's. Apparently there are programs out there that enable this to be done - don't want to go into specifics but I know an IT expert who did just this for me - I have just completed the Koenigsegg One:1 using the PDF version - so much easier. My IT guy was able to download all the plans I had purchased on mobplans as PDF's for my files. :-) PS Feedback on the K one:1 Not for inexperienced builders I rate it 11/10 for difficulty however a joy to behold when completed.
  6. Have recently completed this beast - As mentioned in a previous post - I used SBrick for the control - 1 in the crawler base for the drive and levelling system and 2 in the superstructure for all other functions. Here are some pics of the wiring, I went to great effort to hide the wiring in the boom and to make it tidy within the bodywork. I have built an SBrick interface using an iPad and it works fantastically. I shall post better and more detailed photos shortly - just waiting on some custom stickers to complete the build. PS I used all new parts for this build, including the micromotors - ouch! IMG_1646 by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr IMG_1645 by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr
  7. Agreed, MOCplans format is crap. This is the third car I have had the misfortune to build using this site. Not a pleasant user experience! You require as fast internet connection and a lot of patience to complete a project - most likely shall avoid using mocplans in the future unless they change and allow PDF downloads. No reflection what so ever on the great designers or instruction makers, just the format. OMR
  8. Excellent work, every module runs faultlessly, thanks for the video. Looking forward to the instructions for the train and crane loaders.
  9. They still do, have you seen the SUV's and Panamera? Only Joking :-) Concerning the Claas Xerion, can't wait to get my one - shall convert it to the USA & Australian spec with duel wheels front & rear.
  10. Quote Thanks for sharing! One is missing, but I don´t mind if you don´t like it Now you make me feel bad, I do like the black version, it certainly highlights the cars lines however the $$ for PF components, wheel covers and chrome cups are killing me - maybe one day I shall complete the set. OMR PS For Australian AFOL's these shall be on display at BrickExpo Canberra - July, BrisBricks Brisbane - October & Brickvention Melbourne - January M4 DTM Racing Trio by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr
  11. $499 in Australia - Bargain NOT With an exchange rate of $US / $A 1.3 $US299 should equal $A395 - bit of PRICE GOUGING going on eh TLG? Contemptible! reason enough to not purchase in protest.

  13. Hall of Fame 'Failed Troll' HoF that is.
  14. A mindstorms version of Stephen Hawking with a stutter or mild Tourettes :-)
  15. Re Spiral Lift GBC, started building this today after it was posted, collected the parts some time ago - glad I did. Anyway, cheers Blakbird and a big thank you to my friend 9v System for his effort. OMR
  16. Put them into a bowl of hot water for a while to soften, remove, then straighten and leave to dry - I use this method regularly with good success. Cheers OMR
  17. Excellent work Lisa, thanks for sharing Rohan
  18. Agreed, these Trainspotters are hilarious - like watching bulldozers chasing butterflies
  19. Keep it, add it to the instructions since it makes this another atonimoius module.
  20. Your welcome. Mod seat uses same two pins for mounting - it's just wider.

  21. Hi John, Very easy to add - I made two adapters that attached to the framework that extended either side of the battery box, the LPG cylinder then attached to the adapters via black pins. I have attached lists of the parts required and some photos; Adapters (each) 2 x Axle 2N #32062 2 x 1x2T Liftarms #41677 1 x 1x2 Liftarm #60483 1x Pin #2780 1 x Pin #15100 Adapter by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr Adapter2 by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr LPG Cylinder 4 x Cyl half 2x4x4 #6259 2 x Brick, round 4x4 #6222 4 x Plate, round 4x4 #11833 1 x Plate 2x2 round #2654 1 x Dish 4x4 inverted #3960 2 x Pin #2780 (already included with adapters - shown on Cylinder photo) LPG Cyl by OneMoreRobot_NZ, on Flickr I used LBG for the cylinder, some parts are hard to find in that colour OMR
  22. Thanks brunojj1, this is a fantastic creation, I have almost completed building this and I must say it has been an extremely enjoyable project - it shall sit proudly beside the Ferrari Spyder of yours that I built last year. OMR
  23. Thanks to both of you for creating this work, I accept the challenge to build it - I shall use SBricks and create an intuitive iPad interface. This shall be my autumn project & will be ready for the Sydney Brick Show (Australia) in April '16. OMR
  24. I have the original PowerPuller set plus two on Jurgens JCB - I don't think the tyres are that good of a design since they struggle to hold the weight of a decent MOC & tend to flatten out under weight - I had to make foam inserts to enable them to hold their shape. Also the rumoured 2H 2016 set of a Claas tractor unit may see the rerelease or an updated & improved version of these tyres - that shall kill the inflated (pun) speculation on the PP tyres OMR
