  1. Here is my modification of GAZ-51 - ГЗА-651 (GZA-651) More photos and iformation about it here
  2. Thank you all for your opinions! As I expected, my MOC did not leave anybody indifferent :) So I decided to do a little virtual addition - Yakuza edition and Bosozoku edition. LXF files with the models can be downloaded here(HOONIVAN is also available): Drift Van HOONIVAN Drift Van Yakuza edtion Drift Van Bosozoku edtion
  3. Great work! So real design and shapes! I like it!
  4. it is more a style than practical use
  5. Hi everyone! Today we will focus on the most prominent Japanese automobile subcultures united in a single project - is primarily Drift and Bosozoku and combined them nimble Drift Van style Lego Technic running SBrick. But first things first. So, as the drift, then it is clear, I think most people are familiar with this type of racing, which originated in Japan in the 60s of the last century, but in recent decades gained momentum and sickly popularity around the world. But on bosozoku perhaps focus more. drifting Bosozoku: rebellious tuning "You will be outraged or surprised laugh. This unusual style will not leave you indifferent." bosozoku Bosozoku now - this is the fancy, colorful and absurd style tuning. Multimeter exhaust pipes of different colors and shapes made by the front bumper, radiator, distinguished by the meter skirts - it's all about him. Especially important for bosozoku have tailpipes. They may take the form of lightning, stars, or simply face up - the main thing as high as possible above the roof of the machine. Colors are often inspired by the sports cars 80s. Also on these cars can often be seen learned from under the hood oil radiators. The third of the "pillars" of the style - the extended wheel arches and very wide wheels with narrow tires. However, for me the primary cause of construction Drift Van served no information about the style of tuning bosozoku, but primarily drift since I once came across a video where the usual family minivan Toyota Hiace with installed engine 2JZ-GTE burned rubber and drift better than what some Silvia, or AE86, mark/chaser and other JDM cars. Toyota Hiace Externally, the model is a minivan-style bosozoku, he served as the prototype of the fifth-generation Toyota Hiace with extended arches of the body, and a huge roof spoiler and wheels with wide tires in the ala Stance superstretch - all to match the style. In front is a huge intercooler, installed in the cockpit roll cage and only one pilot's seat. The project is based on a new chassis with direct drive motor buggies. The highlight of the project was SBrick. I have no hesitation to say that it is a revolution in the world of Lego, and highly recommend Lego Group to launch this device in the series. In comparison with the IR receiver - is the earth and sky. From the experience of using a buggy engines running IR receivers say that management is very unstable, even in an apartment, with a minimum of sunlight (which is a strong hindrance to the infrared receivers). When the model is carried at high speed and it is necessary to turn or stop - very important quick response to steering, which the original Lego Receivers can not provide. As a result - a pair of torn pieces from the collision with an obstacle, at best. With SBrick things are much different. First, it has the ability to soft start the motor connected - whether servo motor, motor buggy, M, L or XL - it does not matter. Buggy engine can now drive slowly! It is important. Secondly, one SBrick replaces two conventional receiver because 4 ports - in models with 3-4 motorized functions - is a huge plus in terms of saving space. Thirdly, SBrick works in another wavelength range, which means that now there is no need to lift up the receiver as high as possible, or in a car, for example, to do for him a special hole in the roof, so that the model could then go to the control. Thus, SBrick can drown somewhere in the bowels of the model so that no one will notice. But there SBrick one clear, in my view, the lack of - software. Namely, the lack of support for, let's say, not yet old, but not new operating systems. With Apple - no problem, On Windows - not tried, but with Android has school in the form that the program supports the version of Android 4.3 or higher. At the same time on Android, not all devices are able to upgrade to 4.3, some decided to stay at 4.2.2 and no more. So when you buy, make sure that your device meets this parameter. General Specifications Drift Van: Weight - 820 gram Length / width / height - 47/19/17 (370/151/135) Stud (mm) Number of pieces - 790 pieces. Drive - rear-wheel Electrics: Buggy motor - movement; Servo motor - steering SBrick or IR V2 receiver - remote control. Small battery box
  6. Hi everybody! I recently gave vent to imagination, and I build unusual for modern Lego Technic series underwater explorer. From the perspective of the game did not turn out very well, because moved such model in space even if electrical will not. And what do you say to the account of the idea? Inter would see something like this in a series of official sets? :)
  7. Very cool truck! It looks particularly tires. It suits him.
  8. Awesome model! Excellent contender for the future establishment of the top set Lego technic!
  9. Mobile Geological Research Laboratory "Terrascout" is a mobile complex for cross-country eight-wheel all-wheel drive chassis to perform the tasks of geological exploration in remote places. The crew - 4 people - a driver, a senior geologist, drilling rig operator, technician-geologist. Video: Specifications: 2 large battery box 1 small battery box 2 Infrared receiver 2 Infrared receiver V2 4 L motors to the drive wheels 1 Servo motor on the steering 1 M motor to the drive motor winch 1 M motor to the drive lifting / lowering the boom 1 M motor to the drive outriggers 1 M motor to the drive borax 1 M motor to the drive mechanism for lifting / lowering of the drill
  10. Very cool lowrider! Most importantly - it works!
  11. wow! It looks great!!
  12. Perhaps add to this topic its own version of the modification 41999 :) Police Rancher. Of course the body of my work at the other, but the basis is still the same Boss :) more information here
  13. shape and form of the future are impressive body!
  14. Thanks to the organizers for a great and interesting contest! Thank you for the interesting model contestants! Congratulations to the winners with a victory!
