42080 Forest Harvester
Ngoc Nguyen replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
M motor doesn't have that many holes probably because it doesn't vibrate as much. In many sets the M motor is connected only through the front holes, while the rear holes is left hanging (in 9397).- 313 replies

No need for a special rim. Use normal rim and 3 black pins. -

Ngoc Nguyen replied to Jurss's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think they designed it like so to hide the pins on the rim and create a better, more realistic, appearance. -

The color for the interior is listed as Dark Tan (Sand Yellow on Brickset). It's the same color with that of the old type 5L axle with stop. 2x5 Panels in Dark Tan have already appeared in Star War figures Finn and Rey. -

Technic 2018 Set Discussion

I didnt say anything about 42030. I was talking about 42081 which is also a Volvo loader and its B model which is also a dump truck. -

But how did that happen? It's still the same movement sequence (expansion and compression) is it not- 313 replies

42080 Forest Harvester

The curious thing is that the battery box is limited to one way only. The battery box in 42053 is also limited the same way. Meanwhile, earlier sets with motorized pumps (8110, 42008, 42043) doesn't have this feature. I still don't understand why one rotation direction is preferable (or less) than the other.- 313 replies

Technic 2018 Set Discussion
Ngoc Nguyen replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I'd say this year may be on a slightly higher grade than 2016. in 2016 we have Volvo Excavator, Volvo Loader, Claas, BWE, and Porsche. This year we have Mack Anthem, Mack LR, Volvo Loader, Volvo Dump Truck, RTCrane, and Chiron. In my view: RTC > BWE 2018 Volvo's > 2016 Volvo's Mack Anthem + Mack LR > Xerion Not to mention in 2018 there are more rare types of models. In 2018 we have Tractor Truck + Trailer (never seen for A model), Garbage Truck, Fork Lift, Forest Harvester. For 2016, the only rare things are BWE and 3 modes of steering. Tractors aren't very rare in Lego Technic IMO. -

You should be the only one. Who would expect this set to have PF? -

At least, in terms of appearance, Uwe did a better job in my view. -

Am I the only one who thinks that the grey pipe should be extended to represent the whole C curve on the side? -

42079 - Heavy Duty Forklift

I find it weird that the front arch is close to the front wheel, but the rear ach isn't to the rear wheel. -
42080 Forest Harvester
Ngoc Nguyen replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I echo the thought that L motor seem redundant. An M motor would have been enough. Maybe this set is intended to be a part pack, with a bunch of rare parts and newly colored parts. This thing doesn't even need a motor. Replace the cylinders with two large LA and one small LA on the grabber and it could still function the same.- 313 replies
