I've just found out there is a version of the real Osprey that kinda resembles the reconstructed version.
-
I finished the reconstructed version I put in the first post. As mentioned above, I found two problems with Seoon-Daddy's battery box. However, they are minor problems and can be fixed quickly. Then I found out a 3rd problem. The rotor doesn't tilt up. This can be due to either: - The battery box doesn't provide enough energy - The motor doesn't have enough torque, I recalled having read somewhere that the PF L motor has slightly less torque than the Control+ L motor - The custom rotor blades are heavier than the official blade.
-
The second problem with the previous design is that in the original setup, the wire for the L motor will go out from the front and will be squeezed by the cockpit subassembly. There is no place to route the wire for the L motor. My solution is that I removed one hole in the brick line and routed the wire from between the switch axle and the red connector.
-
All of the parts for the reconstructed version are here. I found a problem with @Seo-onDaddy's battery box solution. This design pushes the end with the switch (driver's side) slightly away from the pin hole in the panel. If I tried to force the 5.5 axle, the middle section of the design bends slightly forward, and this is not desirable. My fix for this is that I replaced the two 2L thin liftarm with the rubber 2L liftarm with two axle holes.

If it looks complete, then it's complete. -
The parts I ordered to reconstruct a white-red 42113 replica have arrived. I'll do a test build this weekend and report on anything noteworthy. I'm gonna use the PF L motor and Seo-on Daddy's solution for the battery box.

Apparently there are no Speed Champion sets in the leaked catalog. Could it be that miniature cars will be in Technic from now on? -

I might have to disagree. The excavator looks awesome and is the most Technic-ish among the batch. I think the two pull back monster trucks should have the tractor tires as well, instead of balloon tires. -

The Jeep has one 3x7 flat panel as the hood and another one as the roof. There may be another one in the back. -

No I dont think so. The new blade has 3 pin holes. I cant see that in the hovercraft. I think what you're seeing is just the 3x13 curved panel in black. Or maybe it's a new panel like 3x13 flat or 3x7 flat. -

There new panels, and they appear in blue. Then the next supercar is blue! Max D has 3x7 flat panel on the sides. -

McLaren has Corvette wheel arches in blue, but these have markings. I dont know if a sticker can cover the wheel arch as I thin it's multiplanar. If it's printed then it's bad. Excavator has L panel in transparent (similar to that in BMW bike and Tow Truck) as the cabin front glass. -

The catalog has been leaked on the internet. It has clear photos with confidential stamps across the photos. I've only seen pages for City, Ninjago, Spiderman, Minecraft. Hopefully Technic pages will appear soon.
