Wow you doing quite a large project here with added software and real word mechanics. Good luck!

True amazing :) I wish it did a real Wall-e sound and had an Eva companion It would make my son shine. Thanks, Noam

Hi, I am planning on attending on Sunday the 24th, anyone want to meet up? Maybe it can be an unofficial meetup near "the technic corner" or near the "bar" :)

The cat sounds worried :) In any case, cool!

From experience (not related to LEGO) you need to go here: http://pages.ebay.com/help/tp/vero-rights-owner.html And follow the steps listed there, there are several options, one of them is to claim copyright on things you did/create: "If you have a good faith belief that a listing on eBay infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, all you need to do is fill out our Notice of Claimed Infringement (NOCI) form, print it out, and fax it to eBay. Open eBay's NOCI form." Thanks, Noam

Beside the guy picking his nose :) Can you tell me what is that kid driving, i.e. what is that control center? or two joysticks?

Not all eBay bids are this bad... Look at this: http://cgi.ebay.com/LEGO-TECHNIC-GEARS-SHOCKS-STEERING-ENGINE-PARTS_W0QQitemZ120628534577 It is a nice "kit" for a currently low price, you just need to be careful to not over bid :) Thanks, Noam

For instructions? Wow!

In the last picture it looks like he is building the Lego Technic Container Truck - Set 8052 :)

What is that guy building in the background?

8 leds costs more, and would consume much more power, this way, one led is powered, and the only losses are the electrical resistance caused by the rotating wire/disk's internal resistance. Thanks, Noam

Hi Anio, I agree its not fair, but the only thing Crowkiller can do is put a copyright on his work, instructions, photos, etc And then send Bricklink notices to people selling off his copyrighted material (if that is even happening), otherwise it is a free world, and unfair world, and people exploit and use other people's work to get money. I feel bad, as I think it is unfair, as much as you do, but the only thing Crowkiller can do, is stop publishing instructions - which is bad for me and you - and it will prevent others from exploiting his work. An alternative would be of course to sue the sellers for giving his stuff without permissions - unlikely to happen...

Oh, that is confusing :) Second page is after first page :) not before... Thanks for the tip.

Not that I am doing this, but why is this a "problem"? It is one thing to sell sets/kits that build X and another thing to sell the instructions. If they are selling the instructions then its illegal and "malicious". If they are selling a kit that has all the parts for a set of instructions, then I can't see anything wrong with it, its a free market, Crowkillers can do the same if they want. I know it sucks, but this is the nature of the Internet and free market.

Ok looked at it, can you provide some more pictures of the wheel connection, without a wheel preferably, as well as a closeup on the way the wheel base (what holds the wheels) is connected to the frame? Thanks, Noam

I don't understand why in the movie they are throwing them to the "lego garbage" ? I know LEGO doesn't lack parts :) But we do... Those LA are ok, just not for this model.

Hi, I tried building your set today, I had a lot of difficulties understanding how the wheel frame (the bottom part where the wheels connect) is configured, especially how you used these: And how the frame that holds the wheels is connected to the mid section. More photos would be appreciated.

So it would mean that the steering is done on only one end, front wheels (for example)? Thanks, Noam

NOTE I first should have mentioned that it looks great! my comment regarding the fabric might sound like I think this is a bad model, this is not the case What is the part number for that fabric :)

I started to build it, and then I found out I was missing some elements :) Mainly the Technic Differential with One Gear 28 Tooth Bevel I have only one, and your model needs two

Updated version is expected to be out in the USA on the 22nd and in Europe, beginning of November.

Hi, There is a whole thread on 8043 model, the service pack, I suggest you read through it, rather than opening a new one. and Welcome on board :)

I agree Road Train is the one I liked most
