42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator
Ngoc Nguyen replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
According to Sariel, the mine truck in this set is designed from scratch, not a copy of the yellow 42035. And it seems the white truck contains something the yellow one doesn't. -
I think both swapping axles and changing the catchover directions are being put in place deliberately by TLG, so that people can tinker with it and discover the right way, just like some people like to tinker with their cars. As the video points out, it just doesnt make any sense at all to use a catchover when a 2M liftarm can totally serve its place.

No one in the right mind would think that selling 8070 is enough to buy the Porsche haha. Of course I'll have to put it some money as well.

Actually Uwe designed the 24 Hour Race Car and the Volvo Loader. Your saying is mean. -
That happens regardless of what gear mode is engaged or what the sequence is. TLG's statement is just pure bollocks.

If so, do you have any suggestion for how the B model can perform the brick sorting function? I can't figure it out... -

Yeah I'm talking about the reverse-engineered one on techlug. Maybe it's all because of the old 3L connector. -

Maybe the problem with the gearbox built by the techlug guy only happens because he doesn't use the new connector, simple as that. -

The right conveyor belt got a lot more reinforcement, and the outriggers in the prelim model are gone. I'd say that is quite drastic -

In the B model, right above the stair leading from the ground there is a connector with a red bush. That's probably the gear shifting knob. -

I just image-googled "Lego 42056", photos from the latest week. That photo is linked to the premature pictorial review of some guy in Flickr.
