    Like @nicjasno‘s modified Unimog front axle?

    And just yesterday Bugatti unveiled the Divo. Model B for this set?

    The multiple lever modification I like the most. Annoying to switch between boom rise, extend, winch every time.

    Thank you for explaining, I treat my collection the same.

    Thanks for the answer. I might source 4 of the Claas tires from Bricklink anyway, but will give V3 a shot with the PP tires first :). V2 was slightly leaning backwards with the tires and I therefore lowered the back axle by one hole to make it look right. It would be a major change for V3, at least that’s what it looks like when I go through the instructions. Anyway, can wait to sort the parts (and tear down 2 sets) to get started!

    It looks like the power puller wheels would fit, correct? I reinforced them because of the axle load in V2 with either 92912 or 54120, can’t recall.

    Wow! Just bought a few of the pieces yesterday that I still needed to complete V2 (again) in yellow. Especially the panels that encase the battery box are not really cheap. If possible I would like to build this one in yellow-black instead of blue-black. At first glance it seems doable. Edit: looks like yellow is achievable, just bought the build instructions. Quality of Backboe V2 BI and other MOCs of you were excellent, can’t wait to see these!

    Thanks for the updated PDF on bricksafe. Can you use the gear indicator on the dashboard as HOG shifter?
  9. emielroumen
    Indeed, as stated in my previous post. In the Telehandler the lower and upper structure each have their own battery box and IR receivers/Sbrick.
  10. emielroumen
    It looks like there is room for a motor in the carrier below the turntable on one side. If one could just add another battery box the 2 structures can be controlled independently, like @Jurgen Krooshoop Telehandler.

    Thanks for the answer. I’ll compare the 2 offerings once the RC version becomes available to decide which one to purchase.
  12. emielroumen
    Ok, I misread your comment. As far as I can see now my set came with the traditional gears only.
  13. emielroumen
    What a great car! If I buy the instructions for the manual version now, will the RC instructions be provided as part of the package later on?
  14. emielroumen
    I applied your modification and the boom goes up without any problem. Btw, no gears left as spares in my set.

    I've taken a few photos for size comparison and put it next to @Jurgen Krooshoop's Telehandler or @sheo's Terex (amongst others). From a weight perspective the Telehandler and Terex (each modified to fit 2 AA battery boxes), it is the lightest though (3475 compared to 3365 grams).

    I've applied the most commonly used mods and reinforced the chassis in a few places, well over a year ago. Removable body, HOG shifting on dash, HOG shifting and steering behind seats, etc. This week I placed an order for a few of the Bugatti gearbox parts to see if those can become part of the Porsche too. I recently noticed that 2 parts of the 90 degrees limiter have started to show signs of wear: cracks! Do you have the same issue?
  17. emielroumen
    Don't forget to modify the gearing of the LAs anyway. See the 42082 review topic (and first post) by @Jim for instance. One LA will take most of the load if you keep the gears as is.

    A full RC version of this crane (not mine):
  19. emielroumen
    Thanks for the update @nico71. I’ll be receiving the set by then and might build your model first :)
  20. emielroumen
    Thanks for the link! Given the backwards compatibility statement and relying on AFOL community answer, I’m not impressed at this stage.
  21. emielroumen
    Would love to see the fragile steering hubs from the good old test car again!
  22. emielroumen
    @MrTekneex: are you considering to obtain this set too and build and alternative model?

    Great review! @Jim: did you create the alternative model B (or model C)?
