What set next?
davidmull replied to davidmull's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Why do people think 8880 is so great,I'm just curious because super cars never have very interesting functions but u here lots going on about 8880! -
Iv built up my collection of flagships the last year and iv got all the good ones,my question is what is the best of the best that I'm missing? Currently I have the following! 8043 8258 8868 8455 8421 8110 8436 8265 I think that's it,it's also a lot of money to spend in a year as even the older ones were misb :) So what's the best of the best I'm missing?im not liking 8275 Or 8285 tho but opinions on these too!what about 8880 or 8466?

8421 questions?
davidmull replied to davidmull's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Anyone know why iv so many part s left over or can anyone remember building this set new?i can't figure it out! -
8421 questions?
davidmull replied to davidmull's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Iv a fair few a bits left,I can't see that I went wrong anywhere its strange,iv got 1x13 black/1x15 light grey/1x9 dark grey/1x5 light grey/1x4 L arm grey and other small bits too :( When I built the main truck I had no parts left so these are all from the bags from the crane part! -
I agree,I just finished building my new 8421 and all I can say is it's a work of art,:)

8421 questions?
davidmull replied to davidmull's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Just figured it out and u were rite that's all that was wrong thanks. I also have a few spare parts even a few lift arms,are these for the b model? -
Iv finished this model but I have one issue,when I'm extending the crane the rope with hook is winding in the way if u get me,is it not ment to work in sink where when u let the boom in or out the rope is ment to follow cause mine seams to be the reverse to that? Edit,fixed,rope was wound the wrong way :)
-
Well I have both and I'm only half way through building 8421 which I got off my wife for Christmas,it cost €275 misb but I only like new sets,iv a feeling so far that 8421 is much better.

Problems with 8110!?
davidmull replied to Beeman's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Have a look through the 8110 mocs tread there's a great idea for making this rc and it's easy too place the XL motor too,there is also a separate post for the steering using an m motor and clutch gear :) -
This is a great model so no cons at all that I can see,the pneumatics works flawless too,u need to get used to controlling the switches and that's all in the fun of it,the crane is very realistic, There's a mod for a sharper turning circle just pull the 4 stopper on the chassis ,also the rotation of the crane is ment to be slow like the real thing. I hate seeing people give out about such a great model,this sets ranks in the top 5 of all time.

Problems with 8110!? 2
davidmull replied to Phantom59's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
All these problems ye are having,are ye building this right at all? There's a mod for the steering to make it easier on the 8110 mods tread. -
I knew u would like it,I just hope Lego continues doing models like this,it's an engineering marvel I think,but the sets for 2012 don't look very promising, I'm really dissapointed the log loader in march doesn't have pneumatics :( maybe ill still buy it and convert to pneumatics tho :) I'm just looking at my 8421 new that I got for Xmas so can't wait to build it.
